Introduction to the research interests
Plasma is a many-body system in which charged particles behave collectively. Plasma is the most ubiquitous state of matter that atoms take in the universe. In the laboratory, high intensity lasers can produce plasmas with high energy densities exceeding Giga-bar. Our research interests are the theoretical modeling of the plasma dynamics in such an extreme state, providing understanding for physics as the nonequilibrium open systems, and contributing to innovative applications such as fusion energy, energetic particle beams, and radiation sources. We also develop and use numerical simulations to elucidate the physics of complex transport phenomena and structure formation processes in high energy density plasmas.
