This site shows some of the application areas of the VORPAL framework,
developed at Tech-X Corpooration.
Electromagnetic cavities
Visualizations of electromagnetic cavities modeled with VORPAL. In these
strcutures, a particle bunch interacts with the electromagnetic field
in the cavities. Click on the thumgnails for high-res images. For more
visualizations of cavities, see
Cavity Gallary 1,
Cavity Gallary 2 and
Cavity Gallary 3
.
Laser Wakefield Acceleration
Visualizations of laser wakefield acceleration. A strong laser pulse in an
underdense plasma generates a plasma wave that can accelerate a bunch of
electrons to high energies.

laser wakefield accelerations, see

Laser-Droplet Interaction
Visualizations of a strong laser pulse hitting a water droplet.
Interdigital Sensor (Fringe Field Sensor)
Visualizations the electric field distribution in an interdigital
sensor.
Laser-Overdense Interaction
Visualizations of a strong laser pulse hitting an overdense target.
