Abstract
An interesting phenomenon called ‘ion transfer’, which may obviously affect the energy gain of cross-beams via changing the momentum and density of plasmas, is demonstrated. The increment of plasma momentum induced by it will be proportional to the transferred energy of the cross-beam according to the momentum conservation law. In addition, the ‘ion transfer’-induced variation of plasma density can be attributed to the balance of the ponderomotive force of the cross-beam and the plasma electron thermal pressure, which is proportional to the total intensity of the cross-beam, while inversely proportional to the plasma electron temperature. These results may make up for the deficiency of the existing linear coupled-mode-equations when investigating the cross-beam energy transfer under the action of ultra-intense laser.
