B Plasma recovery at wakefield accelerators

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on the feasibility of maintaining plasma ionization indefinitely in plasma wakefield accelerators without additional heating. Key concerns include methods to prevent plasma escape, with magnetic confinement being a potential solution, although questions arise about the behavior of non-ionized gas. The impact of solid windows on beam integrity and secondary radiation is also debated, highlighting potential damage risks. Additionally, strategies for quickly recovering and refilling ionized gas are explored. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the technical challenges and considerations in optimizing plasma confinement and stability in accelerator environments.

Is it possible to keep the plasma ionized almost indefinitely. No additional heating is required.

How to prevent the plasma in the plasma wakefield accelerator from escaping? If it is magnetic confinement, it is not always necessary to supply the gas to keep it ionized, and will the gas that is not ionized still escape. If it is a solid window, won't the beam passing through the window cause damage and secondary radiation? Or is there any way to quickly recover and fill the ionized gas.
 

Thread 'The Physics of unloading sand from a barge'

I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...

Thread 'I need to simulate clothing meshes for hanging garments'

I don't need cloth simulation. I need to simulate clothing meshes. Made of triangles and I need an answer that someone with High School math can understand. I am actually using the time it takes for someone to answer to create a model with less geometry than the one I have been using. I want clothing that can be removed on a model that will be animated. I don't need stretching or wrinkles on my meshes, I just need gravity. I have an idea of how I could do it, but I don't know how to apply...
