00:00:10.040 --> 00:00:13.520 align:middle line:84%
JACK HARE: So Thomson
scattering-- as you remember,

00:00:13.520 --> 00:00:19.930 align:middle line:84%
we set up the problem so that
we had some scattering particle

00:00:19.930 --> 00:00:20.710 align:middle line:90%
here.

00:00:20.710 --> 00:00:27.860 align:middle line:84%
We had some incoming wave with
a load of parallel wavefronts

00:00:27.860 --> 00:00:29.690 align:middle line:90%
at some plane wave.

00:00:29.690 --> 00:00:35.930 align:middle line:84%
It's got a wave vector Ki
in the i hat direction here.

00:00:35.930 --> 00:00:39.650 align:middle line:84%
We said that there was
some origin to our system,

00:00:39.650 --> 00:00:44.600 align:middle line:84%
and the particle was at a
distance R from our origin.

00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:47.210 align:middle line:84%
And we were going to
observe the scattered light

00:00:47.210 --> 00:00:54.050 align:middle line:84%
in another direction with
our spectrometer here.

00:00:54.050 --> 00:00:56.030 align:middle line:84%
And that scattered
wave is also going

00:00:56.030 --> 00:00:59.360 align:middle line:84%
to be a plane wave that's
going to have a wave vector

00:00:59.360 --> 00:01:03.750 align:middle line:90%
Ks in the s hat direction.

00:01:03.750 --> 00:01:06.800 align:middle line:84%
There's going to be two
vectors, one from the particle

00:01:06.800 --> 00:01:12.330 align:middle line:84%
and one from the origin,
pointing towards our observer

00:01:12.330 --> 00:01:12.830 align:middle line:90%
here.

00:01:12.830 --> 00:01:19.180 align:middle line:90%
And we call those R and R prime.

00:01:19.180 --> 00:01:21.550 align:middle line:84%
But one of the first
approximations we said

00:01:21.550 --> 00:01:25.030 align:middle line:84%
is that imagine that plasma
where all of our particles

00:01:25.030 --> 00:01:28.780 align:middle line:84%
have some vector R is
relatively small compared

00:01:28.780 --> 00:01:30.970 align:middle line:90%
to the distance to our observer.

00:01:30.970 --> 00:01:34.210 align:middle line:90%
And then we can say that this--

00:01:34.210 --> 00:01:39.560 align:middle line:84%
our vector is roughly the same
as the R prime vector here.

00:01:39.560 --> 00:01:42.760 align:middle line:84%
The position of our
particle, R of t,

00:01:42.760 --> 00:01:46.060 align:middle line:84%
is equal to whatever
it started off

00:01:46.060 --> 00:01:49.160 align:middle line:90%
plus its velocity times time.

00:01:49.160 --> 00:01:51.760 align:middle line:84%
And so we're assuming that
these particles are going

00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:53.710 align:middle line:90%
in roughly straight lines.

00:01:53.710 --> 00:02:02.390 align:middle line:90%


00:02:02.390 --> 00:02:04.220 align:middle line:84%
And we also wanted
to distinguish

00:02:04.220 --> 00:02:07.310 align:middle line:84%
between the time
t prime at which

00:02:07.310 --> 00:02:09.350 align:middle line:84%
the particle is
scattering the radiation

00:02:09.350 --> 00:02:12.350 align:middle line:84%
and the time t at which we're
observing the radiation.

00:02:12.350 --> 00:02:14.660 align:middle line:84%
And we found out through
a little bit of algebra

00:02:14.660 --> 00:02:25.081 align:middle line:84%
that t prime is equal to 1 minus
i hat dot beta over 1 minus

00:02:25.081 --> 00:02:29.710 align:middle line:84%
s hat dot beta, where
beta in this case

00:02:29.710 --> 00:02:34.240 align:middle line:84%
is defined as the velocity
over the speed of light.

00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:36.980 align:middle line:84%
And this was effectively the
origin of our double Doppler

00:02:36.980 --> 00:02:37.480 align:middle line:90%
shift.

00:02:37.480 --> 00:02:39.040 align:middle line:84%
The particle sees
a Doppler shift

00:02:39.040 --> 00:02:41.560 align:middle line:84%
of the wave that's
incident on it,

00:02:41.560 --> 00:02:43.390 align:middle line:84%
and then the observer
sees a Doppler shift

00:02:43.390 --> 00:02:47.460 align:middle line:84%
of the emitted wave because
the particle is moving.

00:02:47.460 --> 00:02:51.530 align:middle line:84%
And we found that
the electric field--

00:02:51.530 --> 00:02:55.400 align:middle line:84%
if we said that we had some
incident electric fields E sub

00:02:55.400 --> 00:03:02.620 align:middle line:84%
i at R and t prime, which was
equal to some electric field

00:03:02.620 --> 00:03:04.678 align:middle line:90%
strength and some polarization.

00:03:04.678 --> 00:03:06.220 align:middle line:84%
That's why this is
the little vector.

00:03:06.220 --> 00:03:08.053 align:middle line:84%
And we're going to
assume it's a plane wave,

00:03:08.053 --> 00:03:16.970 align:middle line:84%
so it's just cosine of
Ki dot r minus omega i t

00:03:16.970 --> 00:03:18.390 align:middle line:90%
prime, like that.

00:03:18.390 --> 00:03:20.750 align:middle line:84%
So it's this wave
with the incident K

00:03:20.750 --> 00:03:23.780 align:middle line:84%
vector and the incident
wave frequency.

00:03:23.780 --> 00:03:31.280 align:middle line:84%
Then our scattered radiation
that we observe at R at time t,

00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:33.200 align:middle line:84%
which is not the
same as t prime,

00:03:33.200 --> 00:03:35.690 align:middle line:84%
was going to be equal to
the classical electron

00:03:35.690 --> 00:03:39.830 align:middle line:84%
radius over the distance,
because this thing is scattering

00:03:39.830 --> 00:03:41.780 align:middle line:90%
into 4 pi steradians.

00:03:41.780 --> 00:03:46.070 align:middle line:84%
And then there was a factor that
looked like s hat cross s hat

00:03:46.070 --> 00:03:51.678 align:middle line:90%
cross the incident radiation--

00:03:51.678 --> 00:03:56.790 align:middle line:84%
whoop-- at r prime
and t prime like this.

00:03:56.790 --> 00:03:59.450 align:middle line:84%
So we scatter some of
that incident radiation.

00:03:59.450 --> 00:04:01.130 align:middle line:84%
We scatter it into
a shape that's

00:04:01.130 --> 00:04:03.860 align:middle line:84%
given by this s hat
cross s hat cross.

00:04:03.860 --> 00:04:06.230 align:middle line:84%
And later on I'll
start referring

00:04:06.230 --> 00:04:12.080 align:middle line:84%
to this, including that second
cross product, as just a tensor

00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:18.079 align:middle line:84%
capital pi, which transforms the
incoming electric field here.

00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:22.460 align:middle line:84%
And we said that if the velocity
of our particle-- this v here--

00:04:22.460 --> 00:04:24.410 align:middle line:84%
is equal to 0-- if
we're just dealing

00:04:24.410 --> 00:04:27.110 align:middle line:84%
with a stationary
particle-- then

00:04:27.110 --> 00:04:31.460 align:middle line:84%
our scattered electric field
that we observe at our detector

00:04:31.460 --> 00:04:35.920 align:middle line:84%
is simply going to have
a very simple form, which

00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:44.583 align:middle line:84%
has-- well, rE on Ri
acting on the strength

00:04:44.583 --> 00:04:45.500 align:middle line:90%
of the electric field.

00:04:45.500 --> 00:04:48.410 align:middle line:84%
That gives us that nice
doughnut-shaped scattering

00:04:48.410 --> 00:04:49.010 align:middle line:90%
pattern.

00:04:49.010 --> 00:04:52.640 align:middle line:84%
And then we'll have a cosine
factor here that simply looks

00:04:52.640 --> 00:04:58.950 align:middle line:84%
like Ki dot r of 0-- r
of 0 because the particle

00:04:58.950 --> 00:05:01.830 align:middle line:84%
isn't moving, so that's
actually r of all time--

00:05:01.830 --> 00:05:10.240 align:middle line:84%
minus omega i t plus
a factor Ki dot r.

00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:17.862 align:middle line:84%
And this final Ki dot r factor
here is for all our particles

00:05:17.862 --> 00:05:20.070 align:middle line:84%
because we basically said
they all pick up that phase

00:05:20.070 --> 00:05:20.873 align:middle line:90%
as we go here.

00:05:20.873 --> 00:05:22.290 align:middle line:84%
But actually all
the particles are

00:05:22.290 --> 00:05:25.420 align:middle line:84%
clustered in a little
plasma around about here.

00:05:25.420 --> 00:05:26.700 align:middle line:90%
So this was quite boring.

00:05:26.700 --> 00:05:28.710 align:middle line:84%
We just get a
scattered wave, which

00:05:28.710 --> 00:05:35.840 align:middle line:84%
has the same frequency and K
vector as the incident wave.

00:05:35.840 --> 00:05:42.500 align:middle line:84%
But if we then allow our
particles to move around,

00:05:42.500 --> 00:05:53.040 align:middle line:84%
we found out that we get Doppler
shifts, as we would expect.

00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:54.990 align:middle line:84%
And we're also
dealing with a regime

00:05:54.990 --> 00:06:00.720 align:middle line:84%
where we're looking
at elastic collisions.

00:06:00.720 --> 00:06:04.940 align:middle line:84%
So this elastic collisions
means that our incident K

00:06:04.940 --> 00:06:08.940 align:middle line:84%
vector has roughly the same
size as our scattered K vector.

00:06:08.940 --> 00:06:12.560 align:middle line:84%
So we don't change the momentum
of our photon very much.

00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:17.010 align:middle line:84%
And this is-- bless you-- valid
when our photon energy is much,

00:06:17.010 --> 00:06:18.290 align:middle line:90%
much less than--

00:06:18.290 --> 00:06:20.980 align:middle line:90%


00:06:20.980 --> 00:06:22.990 align:middle line:84%
I've written it in terms
of particle velocity--

00:06:22.990 --> 00:06:28.570 align:middle line:90%
interesting-- of me ve squared.

00:06:28.570 --> 00:06:32.300 align:middle line:84%
But I imagine this is also
true when it's non-relativistic

00:06:32.300 --> 00:06:36.470 align:middle line:84%
as well, so I'll just
write that down as well.

00:06:36.470 --> 00:06:38.900 align:middle line:84%
If we violate this
limit-- if we start

00:06:38.900 --> 00:06:41.468 align:middle line:84%
scattering energy photons--
we get Compton scattering, not

00:06:41.468 --> 00:06:42.260 align:middle line:90%
Thomson scattering.

00:06:42.260 --> 00:06:44.100 align:middle line:84%
We have to do a full
relativistic treatment.

00:06:44.100 --> 00:06:47.420 align:middle line:84%
So this elastic
collisions constraint

00:06:47.420 --> 00:06:50.900 align:middle line:84%
comes down to us
scattering off fluctuations

00:06:50.900 --> 00:06:53.060 align:middle line:84%
with a K vector,
which is defined

00:06:53.060 --> 00:06:55.910 align:middle line:84%
as the difference
between the scattered K

00:06:55.910 --> 00:07:00.230 align:middle line:84%
vector and the incident K
vector and a frequency, which

00:07:00.230 --> 00:07:02.990 align:middle line:84%
is equal to the difference
in the scattered frequency

00:07:02.990 --> 00:07:05.090 align:middle line:90%
and the incident frequency.

00:07:05.090 --> 00:07:09.920 align:middle line:84%
And this difference is also
equal to the scattering K

00:07:09.920 --> 00:07:13.430 align:middle line:84%
vector-- the difference between
the scattered and the incident

00:07:13.430 --> 00:07:16.320 align:middle line:84%
dotted into the velocity
of the particle.

00:07:16.320 --> 00:07:18.800 align:middle line:84%
So this looks like the
classic Doppler shift

00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:21.240 align:middle line:90%
that you're used to seeing.

00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:28.040 align:middle line:84%
So the punchline
of all of this is

00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:38.940 align:middle line:84%
if you input a wave
with Ki omega i,

00:07:38.940 --> 00:07:41.590 align:middle line:84%
you put your laser beam
through the plasma,

00:07:41.590 --> 00:07:51.477 align:middle line:84%
and you measure some scattering
in some direction Ks--

00:07:51.477 --> 00:07:53.060 align:middle line:84%
which, remember, you
have control over

00:07:53.060 --> 00:07:55.460 align:middle line:84%
because you get to choose
where you put your spectrometer

00:07:55.460 --> 00:07:56.870 align:middle line:90%
around your plasma here--

00:07:56.870 --> 00:08:00.680 align:middle line:84%
and you measure it on a
spectrometer with some frequency

00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:04.700 align:middle line:84%
omega s, then you can
infer that, in order

00:08:04.700 --> 00:08:07.250 align:middle line:84%
for you to be able to
see this scattered light

00:08:07.250 --> 00:08:09.140 align:middle line:84%
from your original
probe signal, there

00:08:09.140 --> 00:08:13.460 align:middle line:84%
has to be something within the
plasma capable of carrying away

00:08:13.460 --> 00:08:15.980 align:middle line:84%
a momentum K and
an energy omega,

00:08:15.980 --> 00:08:19.220 align:middle line:84%
or giving a momentum
K and an energy omega

00:08:19.220 --> 00:08:22.060 align:middle line:90%
to your photon here.

00:08:22.060 --> 00:08:27.640 align:middle line:84%
And the strength of the signal,
so the intensity at omega and K,

00:08:27.640 --> 00:08:31.960 align:middle line:84%
is going to be proportional
to the number of scattering

00:08:31.960 --> 00:08:34.220 align:middle line:90%
things--

00:08:34.220 --> 00:08:35.820 align:middle line:90%
scatterers.

00:08:35.820 --> 00:08:39.850 align:middle line:84%
And these scatterers could
be, for example, particles,

00:08:39.850 --> 00:08:45.180 align:middle line:84%
so electrons, or
they could be waves,

00:08:45.180 --> 00:08:47.690 align:middle line:84%
and I'll often refer to
these waves as modes.

00:08:47.690 --> 00:08:52.700 align:middle line:90%


00:08:52.700 --> 00:08:57.290 align:middle line:84%
And we will get on to-- and
these modes in this case

00:08:57.290 --> 00:09:02.090 align:middle line:84%
have an apparent velocity,
which is equal to omega/K,

00:09:02.090 --> 00:09:03.762 align:middle line:84%
so that's our phase
velocity here.

00:09:03.762 --> 00:09:06.470 align:middle line:84%
So this was a very hand-wavy way
of trying to derive all of this.

00:09:06.470 --> 00:09:07.970 align:middle line:84%
We're going to make
it more rigorous

00:09:07.970 --> 00:09:10.280 align:middle line:84%
by going through some Fourier
transformations of all

00:09:10.280 --> 00:09:11.390 align:middle line:90%
of these equations.

00:09:11.390 --> 00:09:14.450 align:middle line:84%
But that's just a recap of what
we talked about last week, so--

00:09:14.450 --> 00:09:15.150 align:middle line:90%
questions?

00:09:15.150 --> 00:09:18.910 align:middle line:90%


00:09:18.910 --> 00:09:19.410 align:middle line:90%
Yes?

00:09:19.410 --> 00:09:23.785 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

00:09:23.785 --> 00:09:25.410 align:middle line:84%
JACK HARE: So there
is no vector omega.

00:09:25.410 --> 00:09:26.905 align:middle line:90%
Omega is a scalar [AUDIO OUT].

00:09:26.905 --> 00:09:27.405 align:middle line:90%
That's OK.

00:09:27.405 --> 00:09:33.545 align:middle line:90%


00:09:33.545 --> 00:09:38.433 align:middle line:84%
What I like to think of them
as is the momentum-- if you're

00:09:38.433 --> 00:09:40.100 align:middle line:84%
thinking of it as in
a particle picture,

00:09:40.100 --> 00:09:43.310 align:middle line:84%
then h bar K and h bar omega
is the energy and momentum

00:09:43.310 --> 00:09:46.430 align:middle line:84%
of the electron
that scatters them.

00:09:46.430 --> 00:09:48.380 align:middle line:84%
If you're thinking
about it as a wave,

00:09:48.380 --> 00:09:51.140 align:middle line:84%
you don't have to times
it by h bar to get that.

00:09:51.140 --> 00:09:54.050 align:middle line:84%
You can just say at some
wave with K and omega--

00:09:54.050 --> 00:09:58.260 align:middle line:84%
so like a sound wave-- omega
equals sound speed times K,

00:09:58.260 --> 00:09:58.760 align:middle line:90%
for example.

00:09:58.760 --> 00:10:01.910 align:middle line:84%
And we'll talk a lot more
about that later on, so.

00:10:01.910 --> 00:10:04.280 align:middle line:84%
But, yeah, what these
represent is something

00:10:04.280 --> 00:10:06.672 align:middle line:90%
that can scatter this light.

00:10:06.672 --> 00:10:08.630 align:middle line:84%
If you have no plasma
and you fire a laser beam

00:10:08.630 --> 00:10:10.430 align:middle line:84%
through a chamber,
you really shouldn't

00:10:10.430 --> 00:10:12.410 align:middle line:84%
expect to see any scattered
light at some random angle

00:10:12.410 --> 00:10:14.493 align:middle line:84%
there because there's
nothing there to scatter it.

00:10:14.493 --> 00:10:16.580 align:middle line:84%
So if you see some
scattering, you have to say,

00:10:16.580 --> 00:10:18.890 align:middle line:84%
aha, there must be somewhere
something in that chamber

00:10:18.890 --> 00:10:21.920 align:middle line:84%
to scatter it, and it
must be able to change

00:10:21.920 --> 00:10:25.790 align:middle line:84%
the momentum of my photons by
K and their energy by omega.

00:10:25.790 --> 00:10:27.740 align:middle line:84%
And that limits the
sorts of things that can

00:10:27.740 --> 00:10:30.470 align:middle line:90%
exist inside your plasma, so.

00:10:30.470 --> 00:10:32.880 align:middle line:84%
Especially for the
waves and modes,

00:10:32.880 --> 00:10:35.310 align:middle line:84%
they'll only be scattering
at very discrete values

00:10:35.310 --> 00:10:38.960 align:middle line:84%
of omega and K given
by the dispersion wave.

00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:41.730 align:middle line:90%
Yeah?

00:10:41.730 --> 00:10:51.620 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

00:10:51.620 --> 00:10:53.180 align:middle line:84%
JACK HARE: Oh, you
mean like these?

00:10:53.180 --> 00:10:53.763 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: yeah

00:10:53.763 --> 00:10:56.240 align:middle line:84%
JACK HARE: We'll get on to
that in a great deal of detail

00:10:56.240 --> 00:10:56.907 align:middle line:90%
later on.

00:10:56.907 --> 00:11:00.950 align:middle line:84%
So these four lectures are like
a wave washing on the shore.

00:11:00.950 --> 00:11:03.590 align:middle line:84%
So we're going to derive
Thomson scattering three times.

00:11:03.590 --> 00:11:05.870 align:middle line:84%
We did the first
time last week, we're

00:11:05.870 --> 00:11:07.610 align:middle line:84%
going to do the
second time today,

00:11:07.610 --> 00:11:09.360 align:middle line:84%
and we'll start on the
third time as well.

00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:11.180 align:middle line:84%
And each one-- the
previous derivation

00:11:11.180 --> 00:11:14.750 align:middle line:84%
is just a simplification
of the next derivation.

00:11:14.750 --> 00:11:18.272 align:middle line:84%
And previously, we got this
very, very rough picture

00:11:18.272 --> 00:11:19.730 align:middle line:84%
that, if we have
a single particle,

00:11:19.730 --> 00:11:22.220 align:middle line:84%
we might be able to say
something about the particle's

00:11:22.220 --> 00:11:24.770 align:middle line:84%
properties, its
velocity, if we see

00:11:24.770 --> 00:11:27.958 align:middle line:84%
scattering at a certain
frequency and wave vector.

00:11:27.958 --> 00:11:30.125 align:middle line:84%
Next, we're going to do
incoherent scattering, which

00:11:30.125 --> 00:11:31.792 align:middle line:84%
is where we scatter
off the distribution

00:11:31.792 --> 00:11:33.290 align:middle line:90%
function of electrons.

00:11:33.290 --> 00:11:35.090 align:middle line:84%
But these electrons
are not correlated.

00:11:35.090 --> 00:11:36.950 align:middle line:90%
They're all moving incoherently.

00:11:36.950 --> 00:11:38.780 align:middle line:84%
And so we basically
get scattering of each

00:11:38.780 --> 00:11:40.220 align:middle line:90%
of the electrons individually.

00:11:40.220 --> 00:11:42.470 align:middle line:84%
And then, finally, we're going
to do collective scattering,

00:11:42.470 --> 00:11:44.090 align:middle line:84%
where we scatter off
the collective motion

00:11:44.090 --> 00:11:46.215 align:middle line:84%
of the electrons where
they're all moving together,

00:11:46.215 --> 00:11:49.790 align:middle line:90%
which is a wave, so yeah.

00:11:49.790 --> 00:11:50.603 align:middle line:90%
Other questions?

00:11:50.603 --> 00:11:51.270 align:middle line:90%
Anything online?

00:11:51.270 --> 00:11:56.950 align:middle line:90%


00:11:56.950 --> 00:12:00.640 align:middle line:84%
So before we get going
with Fourier transforms,

00:12:00.640 --> 00:12:03.065 align:middle line:84%
I'm going to write
down some assumptions.

00:12:03.065 --> 00:12:04.690 align:middle line:84%
And these assumptions
don't necessarily

00:12:04.690 --> 00:12:07.942 align:middle line:84%
have to be true for every
plasma that we're dealing with.

00:12:07.942 --> 00:12:09.400 align:middle line:84%
But they are
assumptions that we've

00:12:09.400 --> 00:12:11.772 align:middle line:84%
made in order to do this
Thomson scattering derivation.

00:12:11.772 --> 00:12:13.480 align:middle line:84%
If you want to violate
these assumptions,

00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:17.020 align:middle line:84%
you need to go and check
where this assumption comes in

00:12:17.020 --> 00:12:21.300 align:middle line:84%
and re-derive your
Thomson scattering.

00:12:21.300 --> 00:12:24.570 align:middle line:84%
So first of all,
we are scattering

00:12:24.570 --> 00:12:34.300 align:middle line:84%
from some volume V, which
has N electrons inside it.

00:12:34.300 --> 00:12:36.760 align:middle line:84%
The electrons have
a charge of e minus,

00:12:36.760 --> 00:12:43.405 align:middle line:84%
and there are N/Z ions
with a charge of Ze.

00:12:43.405 --> 00:12:49.880 align:middle line:90%


00:12:49.880 --> 00:12:51.150 align:middle line:90%
This is pretty standard.

00:12:51.150 --> 00:12:54.960 align:middle line:84%
But this is effectively a
statement of quasi-neutrality.

00:12:54.960 --> 00:13:01.720 align:middle line:84%
Secondly, we are mostly going to
drop relativistic corrections.

00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:11.980 align:middle line:90%


00:13:11.980 --> 00:13:23.070 align:middle line:84%
So if we want to look at the
fully non-relativistic case,

00:13:23.070 --> 00:13:29.860 align:middle line:84%
we will drop terms
on the order of V/c.

00:13:29.860 --> 00:13:31.600 align:middle line:84%
So if we do some
sort of expansion

00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:33.980 align:middle line:84%
and we see a term with
V/c, we'll just drop it.

00:13:33.980 --> 00:13:36.040 align:middle line:84%
So we're only keeping
the zeroth-order terms.

00:13:36.040 --> 00:13:44.880 align:middle line:84%
If we want to do this sort of
quote marks "relativistic,"

00:13:44.880 --> 00:13:51.090 align:middle line:84%
then we will keep the
order of V/c terms,

00:13:51.090 --> 00:13:55.770 align:middle line:84%
but we'll drop the terms on
the order of V squared upon c

00:13:55.770 --> 00:13:56.270 align:middle line:90%
squared.

00:13:56.270 --> 00:13:59.330 align:middle line:84%
So you can see this is
like a Taylor expansion.

00:13:59.330 --> 00:14:01.820 align:middle line:84%
We're going to claim that
they're much less than 1.

00:14:01.820 --> 00:14:06.848 align:middle line:84%
If you want to do the
really relativistic,

00:14:06.848 --> 00:14:08.390 align:middle line:84%
because obviously
this still neglects

00:14:08.390 --> 00:14:13.410 align:middle line:84%
some relativistic
terms, then you

00:14:13.410 --> 00:14:16.433 align:middle line:84%
should just go and derive
Compton scattering instead,

00:14:16.433 --> 00:14:17.600 align:middle line:90%
which we're not going to do.

00:14:17.600 --> 00:14:21.520 align:middle line:90%


00:14:21.520 --> 00:14:23.050 align:middle line:90%
I cannot stress this enough.

00:14:23.050 --> 00:14:25.885 align:middle line:90%
There will be no quantum.

00:14:25.885 --> 00:14:26.830 align:middle line:90%
I don't like it.

00:14:26.830 --> 00:14:32.990 align:middle line:90%


00:14:32.990 --> 00:14:43.370 align:middle line:90%
There's no scattering from ions.

00:14:43.370 --> 00:14:45.050 align:middle line:90%
We discussed this already.

00:14:45.050 --> 00:14:48.020 align:middle line:84%
Because of the mass
difference, the ions

00:14:48.020 --> 00:14:50.060 align:middle line:90%
scatter much, much less.

00:14:50.060 --> 00:14:53.062 align:middle line:84%
We will no longer think
about the scattering directly

00:14:53.062 --> 00:14:55.520 align:middle line:84%
from the ions, but we will
think a lot about the scattering

00:14:55.520 --> 00:14:58.305 align:middle line:84%
from electrons which are
dragged around by the ions.

00:14:58.305 --> 00:15:04.010 align:middle line:90%


00:15:04.010 --> 00:15:07.430 align:middle line:84%
We're going to assume that
our observer is at a distance

00:15:07.430 --> 00:15:12.680 align:middle line:84%
R which is much, much larger
than the volume within which

00:15:12.680 --> 00:15:15.690 align:middle line:84%
the plasma is contained
to the third power.

00:15:15.690 --> 00:15:17.270 align:middle line:90%
So this is a length scale now--

00:15:17.270 --> 00:15:18.710 align:middle line:90%
V to 1/3.

00:15:18.710 --> 00:15:21.440 align:middle line:84%
So this is effectively
the max value

00:15:21.440 --> 00:15:24.670 align:middle line:90%
of this little r vector here.

00:15:24.670 --> 00:15:26.910 align:middle line:84%
So the plasma is small,
and it's far away.

00:15:26.910 --> 00:15:29.460 align:middle line:84%
And this in turn-- this
length scale here--

00:15:29.460 --> 00:15:33.420 align:middle line:84%
is much, much larger than the
wavelength of the incident

00:15:33.420 --> 00:15:34.830 align:middle line:90%
light.

00:15:34.830 --> 00:15:37.860 align:middle line:84%
So we're seeing a large number
of charges within a wavelength.

00:15:37.860 --> 00:15:41.630 align:middle line:84%
They're not scattering
off single particles.

00:15:41.630 --> 00:15:44.480 align:middle line:84%
This is equivalent
to saying, of course,

00:15:44.480 --> 00:15:50.670 align:middle line:84%
that there are many
electrons in V--

00:15:50.670 --> 00:15:57.560 align:middle line:84%
in the volume-- and
that V is small.

00:15:57.560 --> 00:16:00.070 align:middle line:84%
And this is what we needed
to justify that our R

00:16:00.070 --> 00:16:02.410 align:middle line:90%
prime is approximately R--

00:16:02.410 --> 00:16:03.640 align:middle line:90%
our argument here.

00:16:03.640 --> 00:16:07.520 align:middle line:84%
These two vectors
are roughly the same.

00:16:07.520 --> 00:16:08.480 align:middle line:90%
What are we up to?

00:16:08.480 --> 00:16:11.330 align:middle line:90%
Five assumptions.

00:16:11.330 --> 00:16:17.980 align:middle line:84%
Assumption 6-- we're going
to assume that the frequency

00:16:17.980 --> 00:16:19.930 align:middle line:90%
of our incident light--

00:16:19.930 --> 00:16:23.380 align:middle line:84%
the light which is being
scattered-- is greater than--

00:16:23.380 --> 00:16:27.370 align:middle line:84%
significantly greater than--
the electron plasma frequency.

00:16:27.370 --> 00:16:28.420 align:middle line:90%
Don't get fooled.

00:16:28.420 --> 00:16:29.980 align:middle line:84%
There are going to be lots
of i's showing up here.

00:16:29.980 --> 00:16:31.360 align:middle line:90%
That's always for "incident."

00:16:31.360 --> 00:16:33.068 align:middle line:84%
I am not thinking
about the ions anymore.

00:16:33.068 --> 00:16:34.580 align:middle line:90%
They're too slow and too heavy.

00:16:34.580 --> 00:16:37.030 align:middle line:84%
So if we make this
approximation,

00:16:37.030 --> 00:16:40.360 align:middle line:84%
I can approximate the
refractive index of the plasma

00:16:40.360 --> 00:16:42.970 align:middle line:84%
as basically being
1 so I don't have

00:16:42.970 --> 00:16:44.920 align:middle line:90%
to think about those effects.

00:16:44.920 --> 00:16:46.320 align:middle line:84%
In reality, you
might want to put

00:16:46.320 --> 00:16:48.820 align:middle line:84%
in a small correction for this,
and it's actually quite easy

00:16:48.820 --> 00:16:50.220 align:middle line:90%
to do.

00:16:50.220 --> 00:16:52.100 align:middle line:90%
We also have the assumption--

00:16:52.100 --> 00:16:53.850 align:middle line:84%
I think this should
be number 7, frankly--

00:16:53.850 --> 00:16:56.950 align:middle line:90%


00:16:56.950 --> 00:17:01.430 align:middle line:90%
no probe attenuation.

00:17:01.430 --> 00:17:10.770 align:middle line:84%
So the optical depth at tau
evaluated at our probe frequency

00:17:10.770 --> 00:17:12.720 align:middle line:90%
is much, much less than 1.

00:17:12.720 --> 00:17:14.250 align:middle line:84%
So the beam doesn't
get absorbed.

00:17:14.250 --> 00:17:16.230 align:middle line:84%
This just makes it much
easier to do the calculations.

00:17:16.230 --> 00:17:17.579 align:middle line:84%
If your beam was
getting absorbed,

00:17:17.579 --> 00:17:19.290 align:middle line:84%
you'd get different amounts
of scattering depending

00:17:19.290 --> 00:17:20.498 align:middle line:90%
on where you are on the beam.

00:17:20.498 --> 00:17:22.960 align:middle line:84%
It's a pain, so we're
not going to do that.

00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:25.710 align:middle line:84%
And then, finally-- we
touched on this earlier--

00:17:25.710 --> 00:17:31.470 align:middle line:84%
the velocity induced from the
electric field of the incident

00:17:31.470 --> 00:17:35.460 align:middle line:84%
radiation we are going to
assume is much, much smaller

00:17:35.460 --> 00:17:38.440 align:middle line:90%
than the thermal velocity here.

00:17:38.440 --> 00:17:40.650 align:middle line:84%
And so this was saying
that our particles are

00:17:40.650 --> 00:17:43.350 align:middle line:84%
going in straight
lines at some velocity,

00:17:43.350 --> 00:17:44.610 align:middle line:90%
like the thermal velocity.

00:17:44.610 --> 00:17:47.400 align:middle line:84%
And the electric field is
just making them wobble ever

00:17:47.400 --> 00:17:50.330 align:middle line:84%
so slightly along
those lines here.

00:17:50.330 --> 00:17:53.820 align:middle line:84%
And this is equivalent because
this equals this velocity here

00:17:53.820 --> 00:17:54.990 align:middle line:90%
from the electric field--

00:17:54.990 --> 00:17:58.710 align:middle line:84%
you can work it out as
being e times the strength

00:17:58.710 --> 00:18:03.460 align:middle line:84%
of the electric field
over m e omega i--

00:18:03.460 --> 00:18:07.920 align:middle line:84%
if you set that to be
less than V thermal,

00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:10.890 align:middle line:84%
then you find out
that the power--

00:18:10.890 --> 00:18:12.730 align:middle line:84%
the intensity of
your laser beam--

00:18:12.730 --> 00:18:18.460 align:middle line:84%
which is equal to c epsilon
0 strength of the scattering

00:18:18.460 --> 00:18:20.560 align:middle line:90%
electric field squared--

00:18:20.560 --> 00:18:22.910 align:middle line:90%
it limits this power.

00:18:22.910 --> 00:18:26.590 align:middle line:84%
I won't derive it
directly, but--

00:18:26.590 --> 00:18:27.910 align:middle line:90%
so you can't use--

00:18:27.910 --> 00:18:29.663 align:middle line:84%
in order for this
assumption to be valid,

00:18:29.663 --> 00:18:31.330 align:middle line:84%
which we'll use a lot
in our derivation,

00:18:31.330 --> 00:18:33.140 align:middle line:90%
our laser cannot be too strong.

00:18:33.140 --> 00:18:35.020 align:middle line:84%
So if you end up using
a very strong laser,

00:18:35.020 --> 00:18:40.600 align:middle line:84%
you have to re-derive this using
the full orbit of your particle,

00:18:40.600 --> 00:18:43.300 align:middle line:84%
which includes this strongly
perturbing electric field,

00:18:43.300 --> 00:18:44.150 align:middle line:90%
and that's a pain.

00:18:44.150 --> 00:18:45.490 align:middle line:84%
So obviously, that's
not a good reason

00:18:45.490 --> 00:18:46.660 align:middle line:90%
not to use a very strong laser.

00:18:46.660 --> 00:18:48.460 align:middle line:84%
You want to use a nice,
strong laser in order

00:18:48.460 --> 00:18:50.110 align:middle line:84%
to get this Thomson
scattering effect.

00:18:50.110 --> 00:18:54.610 align:middle line:84%
But you should be careful about
whether your Thomson scattering

00:18:54.610 --> 00:18:57.550 align:middle line:84%
formalism is still valid if
you use a very strong laser.

00:18:57.550 --> 00:19:02.220 align:middle line:84%
Any questions on any
of these assumptions?

00:19:02.220 --> 00:19:02.782 align:middle line:90%
Yes?

00:19:02.782 --> 00:19:06.130 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

00:19:06.130 --> 00:19:15.020 align:middle line:90%


00:19:15.020 --> 00:19:17.808 align:middle line:84%
We are just dealing with these
particles as like points.

00:19:17.808 --> 00:19:19.850 align:middle line:84%
So we're going to use a
Klimontovich distribution

00:19:19.850 --> 00:19:22.433 align:middle line:84%
function at some point, which
has delta functions representing

00:19:22.433 --> 00:19:24.990 align:middle line:84%
the position of the particles
in space and in velocity space.

00:19:24.990 --> 00:19:26.990 align:middle line:84%
And so we don't have to
worry about uncertain things

00:19:26.990 --> 00:19:27.420 align:middle line:90%
like that.

00:19:27.420 --> 00:19:29.180 align:middle line:84%
And so we're not thinking
about particles as waves.

00:19:29.180 --> 00:19:31.430 align:middle line:84%
We're not thinking about
a semi-classical treatment

00:19:31.430 --> 00:19:33.775 align:middle line:84%
of electromagnetic radiation
scattering particles.

00:19:33.775 --> 00:19:35.150 align:middle line:84%
So this is a
classical treatment.

00:19:35.150 --> 00:19:41.460 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

00:19:41.460 --> 00:19:42.960 align:middle line:84%
JACK HARE: I would
have thought it's

00:19:42.960 --> 00:19:45.720 align:middle line:84%
when you get to
short wavelengths,

00:19:45.720 --> 00:19:50.040 align:middle line:84%
so where you're getting to short
wavelengths, which are getting

00:19:50.040 --> 00:19:53.100 align:middle line:84%
close to the classical
electron radius,

00:19:53.100 --> 00:19:55.380 align:middle line:84%
so not when you're getting
close to the Debye length.

00:19:55.380 --> 00:19:56.370 align:middle line:84%
We'll actually
talk about the fact

00:19:56.370 --> 00:19:58.453 align:middle line:84%
that the Debye length is
really important to this.

00:19:58.453 --> 00:20:00.040 align:middle line:84%
We can definitely
have wavelengths

00:20:00.040 --> 00:20:01.380 align:middle line:84%
which are above or
below the Debye length.

00:20:01.380 --> 00:20:03.270 align:middle line:84%
But I would have thought when
you get down to wavelengths

00:20:03.270 --> 00:20:04.860 align:middle line:84%
on the order of the
classical electron radius,

00:20:04.860 --> 00:20:06.360 align:middle line:84%
then you'd need a
quantum treatment.

00:20:06.360 --> 00:20:07.140 align:middle line:90%
Yeah.

00:20:07.140 --> 00:20:17.750 align:middle line:90%
[INAUDIBLE]

00:20:17.750 --> 00:20:18.290 align:middle line:90%
Depends.

00:20:18.290 --> 00:20:20.630 align:middle line:84%
If your plasma is very hot,
the relativistic corrections

00:20:20.630 --> 00:20:21.500 align:middle line:90%
are hard to avoid.

00:20:21.500 --> 00:20:24.540 align:middle line:84%
And I'll talk a little bit about
the "relativistic" corrections,

00:20:24.540 --> 00:20:27.040 align:middle line:84%
which are normally used in a
tokamak when you get to like 10

00:20:27.040 --> 00:20:30.770 align:middle line:84%
kiloelectron volts, because then
your rest mass of your electrons

00:20:30.770 --> 00:20:33.920 align:middle line:84%
is 500 kiloelectron volts, and
10 kiloelectron volts is not

00:20:33.920 --> 00:20:36.260 align:middle line:84%
nothing, and you need to
have a small correction.

00:20:36.260 --> 00:20:40.610 align:middle line:84%
I would have thought this one
is often quite hard to obey,

00:20:40.610 --> 00:20:42.500 align:middle line:84%
but it's also quite
easy to fix up.

00:20:42.500 --> 00:20:45.050 align:middle line:84%
You just need to make sure that
the dispersion relationship

00:20:45.050 --> 00:20:49.160 align:middle line:84%
for your incoming light
and your scattered light

00:20:49.160 --> 00:20:51.200 align:middle line:84%
obeys this equation
as well, so that it

00:20:51.200 --> 00:20:55.960 align:middle line:84%
obeys a dispersion relationship
where N is not equal to 1.

00:20:55.960 --> 00:20:58.720 align:middle line:84%
That's really hard to
achieve in a lot of plasmas

00:20:58.720 --> 00:21:00.668 align:middle line:84%
if you have inverse
Bremsstrahlung.

00:21:00.668 --> 00:21:02.710 align:middle line:84%
Because your plasma is
relatively cold and dense,

00:21:02.710 --> 00:21:04.793 align:middle line:84%
then you have very strong
probe attenuation that's

00:21:04.793 --> 00:21:07.270 align:middle line:90%
been seen in lots of plasmas.

00:21:07.270 --> 00:21:08.350 align:middle line:90%
Yeah.

00:21:08.350 --> 00:21:10.180 align:middle line:90%
Quasi-neutrality is pretty good.

00:21:10.180 --> 00:21:11.530 align:middle line:90%
Quantum's pretty good.

00:21:11.530 --> 00:21:14.570 align:middle line:84%
No scattering from
ions is pretty good.

00:21:14.570 --> 00:21:15.570 align:middle line:90%
This one is pretty good.

00:21:15.570 --> 00:21:19.283 align:middle line:84%
It's actually hard to get a
laser that intense, so yeah.

00:21:19.283 --> 00:21:19.950 align:middle line:90%
Other questions?

00:21:19.950 --> 00:21:20.730 align:middle line:90%
Yeah?

00:21:20.730 --> 00:21:22.980 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

00:21:22.980 --> 00:21:25.280 align:middle line:84%
JACK HARE: Optical
wavelengths, because they

00:21:25.280 --> 00:21:26.817 align:middle line:90%
are nice to work with.

00:21:26.817 --> 00:21:29.498 align:middle line:84%
[CHUCKLES] But people do
X-ray Thomson scattering

00:21:29.498 --> 00:21:31.040 align:middle line:84%
as well, which is
really complicated,

00:21:31.040 --> 00:21:32.082 align:middle line:90%
and we won't get into it.

00:21:32.082 --> 00:21:34.292 align:middle line:84%
But that's where things
get a bit more quantum.

00:21:34.292 --> 00:21:36.500 align:middle line:84%
But, yeah, optical wavelengths
are nice to work with.

00:21:36.500 --> 00:21:39.080 align:middle line:84%
People have done Thomson
scattering with CO2 lasers,

00:21:39.080 --> 00:21:40.860 align:middle line:90%
which are about 10 microns.

00:21:40.860 --> 00:21:44.587 align:middle line:84%
So that's about 10 times
longer than optical wavelength.

00:21:44.587 --> 00:21:46.670 align:middle line:84%
And then the first Thomson
scattering measurements

00:21:46.670 --> 00:21:49.280 align:middle line:84%
were actually done off the
ionosphere by Salpeter,

00:21:49.280 --> 00:21:50.600 align:middle line:90%
and he used radar.

00:21:50.600 --> 00:21:53.720 align:middle line:84%
So he did Thomson
scattering off the plasma

00:21:53.720 --> 00:21:56.552 align:middle line:84%
that surrounds the Earth and
measured its properties, but--

00:21:56.552 --> 00:21:58.260 align:middle line:84%
that's when the theory
was first derived.

00:21:58.260 --> 00:22:01.740 align:middle line:84%
But in a lab, we don't use
radar because our plasmas

00:22:01.740 --> 00:22:04.178 align:middle line:90%
are smaller, so-- yeah?

00:22:04.178 --> 00:22:07.850 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

00:22:07.850 --> 00:22:09.440 align:middle line:90%
JACK HARE: No, this was just--

00:22:09.440 --> 00:22:11.773 align:middle line:84%
the previous derivation was
just to give you a heuristic

00:22:11.773 --> 00:22:13.745 align:middle line:90%
feel for a problem-- yeah.

00:22:13.745 --> 00:22:15.870 align:middle line:84%
The previous derivation
was just a single particle.

00:22:15.870 --> 00:22:18.020 align:middle line:84%
So none of these really
talk about single particle--

00:22:18.020 --> 00:22:18.770 align:middle line:90%
well, no, they do.

00:22:18.770 --> 00:22:20.510 align:middle line:84%
Look, we've put
lots of electrons

00:22:20.510 --> 00:22:21.800 align:middle line:90%
inside our volume, yeah.

00:22:21.800 --> 00:22:25.090 align:middle line:90%


00:22:25.090 --> 00:22:36.270 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: The last [INAUDIBLE]

00:22:36.270 --> 00:22:37.211 align:middle line:90%


00:22:37.211 --> 00:22:37.836 align:middle line:90%
JACK HARE: Yes.

00:22:37.836 --> 00:22:37.863 align:middle line:90%
Yeah.

00:22:37.863 --> 00:22:38.363 align:middle line:90%
Yeah.

00:22:38.363 --> 00:22:40.500 align:middle line:84%
We're going to use
this as the orbit--

00:22:40.500 --> 00:22:43.080 align:middle line:84%
the "orbit"-- of the particle
as its equation of motion.

00:22:43.080 --> 00:22:46.350 align:middle line:84%
And if that's not true,
then you need to solve.

00:22:46.350 --> 00:22:47.410 align:middle line:90%
It will be very--

00:22:47.410 --> 00:22:48.660 align:middle line:90%
it's already quite non-linear.

00:22:48.660 --> 00:22:50.610 align:middle line:84%
It'll be very
non-linear at that point

00:22:50.610 --> 00:22:53.197 align:middle line:84%
because it will depend on how
the electric field scatters.

00:22:53.197 --> 00:22:54.780 align:middle line:84%
The scattered electric
field will also

00:22:54.780 --> 00:22:56.520 align:middle line:84%
distort the orbit
of the particle.

00:22:56.520 --> 00:22:59.658 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

00:22:59.658 --> 00:23:00.700 align:middle line:90%
JACK HARE: Yeah, exactly.

00:23:00.700 --> 00:23:03.260 align:middle line:90%


00:23:03.260 --> 00:23:04.490 align:middle line:90%
Any questions on that?

00:23:04.490 --> 00:23:15.160 align:middle line:90%


00:23:15.160 --> 00:23:17.770 align:middle line:84%
So let's talk about scattering
for multiple electrons.

00:23:17.770 --> 00:23:29.440 align:middle line:90%


00:23:29.440 --> 00:23:36.500 align:middle line:84%
So imagine I have now my
incident wave coming in, Ki,

00:23:36.500 --> 00:23:40.944 align:middle line:84%
and I'm still
observing along Ks.

00:23:40.944 --> 00:23:43.870 align:middle line:90%


00:23:43.870 --> 00:23:48.930 align:middle line:84%
And now I have a collection
of particles here,

00:23:48.930 --> 00:23:55.820 align:middle line:84%
and they are all
oscillating, and they are all

00:23:55.820 --> 00:23:58.080 align:middle line:90%
scattering light.

00:23:58.080 --> 00:24:04.230 align:middle line:84%
And so I'm getting a load of e
scattered from each of these.

00:24:04.230 --> 00:24:06.360 align:middle line:84%
And so now the total
scattered power,

00:24:06.360 --> 00:24:13.100 align:middle line:84%
which is, as you
remember, dP d omega s d--

00:24:13.100 --> 00:24:15.320 align:middle line:84%
oh, no, just dP d
omega s OK, fine,

00:24:15.320 --> 00:24:18.880 align:middle line:84%
so we're integrating
over [INAUDIBLE].

00:24:18.880 --> 00:24:21.820 align:middle line:90%
Doesn't seem quite right.

00:24:21.820 --> 00:24:23.620 align:middle line:84%
[VOCALIZING]-- I'll
throw this back in.

00:24:23.620 --> 00:24:26.910 align:middle line:90%


00:24:26.910 --> 00:24:28.535 align:middle line:84%
What did we do in
the previous lecture?

00:24:28.535 --> 00:24:34.950 align:middle line:90%


00:24:34.950 --> 00:24:35.450 align:middle line:90%
No.

00:24:35.450 --> 00:24:36.367 align:middle line:90%
I'll leave it as that.

00:24:36.367 --> 00:24:42.510 align:middle line:90%


00:24:42.510 --> 00:24:49.200 align:middle line:84%
That is now going to be equal
to R squared c epsilon 0.

00:24:49.200 --> 00:24:55.200 align:middle line:84%
Previously, we had a term that
looked like e scattered dot e

00:24:55.200 --> 00:24:57.080 align:middle line:90%
scattered star.

00:24:57.080 --> 00:24:59.550 align:middle line:90%
That was for a single particle.

00:24:59.550 --> 00:25:02.540 align:middle line:84%
So now we replace
this with a term

00:25:02.540 --> 00:25:14.890 align:middle line:84%
that looks like the sum over j
and l to N of ej dot e l star.

00:25:14.890 --> 00:25:17.460 align:middle line:90%


00:25:17.460 --> 00:25:20.370 align:middle line:84%
This is basically summing up
all of these electric fields,

00:25:20.370 --> 00:25:27.075 align:middle line:84%
and these electric fields now
interfere with each other.

00:25:27.075 --> 00:25:29.230 align:middle line:84%
I shouldn't have put these
vertical arrows here.

00:25:29.230 --> 00:25:31.860 align:middle line:84%
This is a time
average, remember.

00:25:31.860 --> 00:25:33.510 align:middle line:90%
There we go-- like that.

00:25:33.510 --> 00:25:36.480 align:middle line:90%


00:25:36.480 --> 00:25:38.640 align:middle line:84%
And it turns out we can
split this into two terms.

00:25:38.640 --> 00:25:40.725 align:middle line:90%
So we split this into the term--

00:25:40.725 --> 00:25:44.670 align:middle line:84%
they're both R
squared c epsilon 0.

00:25:44.670 --> 00:25:50.490 align:middle line:84%
And then we have a term that
looks like N times es squared.

00:25:50.490 --> 00:25:55.410 align:middle line:84%
And this comes from the sum
where we have j equal to l.

00:25:55.410 --> 00:25:57.870 align:middle line:84%
So this is effectively
the scattered light

00:25:57.870 --> 00:26:02.500 align:middle line:84%
of each of the
electrons summed up--

00:26:02.500 --> 00:26:04.840 align:middle line:84%
and there is N
electrons scattering--

00:26:04.840 --> 00:26:19.830 align:middle line:84%
plus a term that looks like
N times N minus 1 ej dot e l.

00:26:19.830 --> 00:26:22.940 align:middle line:84%
And this is for
j not equal to l.

00:26:22.940 --> 00:26:27.890 align:middle line:90%


00:26:27.890 --> 00:26:30.920 align:middle line:84%
So we've split this
sum up into the terms

00:26:30.920 --> 00:26:33.080 align:middle line:84%
where we're just talking
about the electric field

00:26:33.080 --> 00:26:35.430 align:middle line:84%
from the same particle
interfering with itself, which

00:26:35.430 --> 00:26:38.720 align:middle line:84%
is obviously constructive, and
the terms where these are not

00:26:38.720 --> 00:26:43.380 align:middle line:84%
equal, so when the scattered
electric field from one particle

00:26:43.380 --> 00:26:45.390 align:middle line:84%
interferes with the
scattered electric field

00:26:45.390 --> 00:26:48.380 align:middle line:90%
from another particle.

00:26:48.380 --> 00:26:50.330 align:middle line:84%
You might notice that
there's an N minus 1

00:26:50.330 --> 00:26:53.300 align:middle line:84%
here because once we've
picked which particle is j,

00:26:53.300 --> 00:26:56.180 align:middle line:84%
there's only N minus
1 particles to be L.

00:26:56.180 --> 00:26:59.930 align:middle line:84%
But you may also realize
that in a real plasma,

00:26:59.930 --> 00:27:01.820 align:middle line:84%
the difference between
N and N minus 1

00:27:01.820 --> 00:27:04.320 align:middle line:84%
is very small because
there's a lot of particles.

00:27:04.320 --> 00:27:08.980 align:middle line:84%
So we can just write this as
N squared most of the time.

00:27:08.980 --> 00:27:11.220 align:middle line:84%
And so in this expression,
this first term

00:27:11.220 --> 00:27:15.580 align:middle line:84%
here is called the
incoherent term

00:27:15.580 --> 00:27:20.440 align:middle line:84%
because this just depends
on each of the particles

00:27:20.440 --> 00:27:21.440 align:middle line:90%
independently.

00:27:21.440 --> 00:27:25.660 align:middle line:84%
And this second term is
called the coherent term.

00:27:25.660 --> 00:27:27.403 align:middle line:84%
And it's called
the coherent term

00:27:27.403 --> 00:27:29.320 align:middle line:84%
because, unless there
is something correlating

00:27:29.320 --> 00:27:31.570 align:middle line:84%
these particles so their
electric fields have

00:27:31.570 --> 00:27:33.610 align:middle line:84%
some correlation, you
would expect them all

00:27:33.610 --> 00:27:35.930 align:middle line:84%
to be random with
respect to each other.

00:27:35.930 --> 00:27:39.260 align:middle line:84%
And then when you dot them into
each other and average them out,

00:27:39.260 --> 00:27:42.280 align:middle line:84%
you would expect that randomness
to average out to zero.

00:27:42.280 --> 00:27:52.280 align:middle line:84%
So to be coherent,
we need correlation,

00:27:52.280 --> 00:27:55.300 align:middle line:84%
and we'll talk a lot
about that later on.

00:27:55.300 --> 00:27:59.020 align:middle line:84%
Now, what's the smallest
length scale in a plasma?

00:27:59.020 --> 00:28:04.157 align:middle line:90%


00:28:04.157 --> 00:28:05.570 align:middle line:90%
Yeah?

00:28:05.570 --> 00:28:07.200 align:middle line:84%
The Debye length--
yeah, exactly.

00:28:07.200 --> 00:28:08.450 align:middle line:90%
That's what makes it a plasma.

00:28:08.450 --> 00:28:11.200 align:middle line:90%


00:28:11.200 --> 00:28:16.680 align:middle line:84%
So if you are probing this
plasma on length scales

00:28:16.680 --> 00:28:18.657 align:middle line:84%
smaller than the
Debye length, you're

00:28:18.657 --> 00:28:20.490 align:middle line:84%
effectively going to
be looking at something

00:28:20.490 --> 00:28:21.630 align:middle line:90%
that isn't a plasma.

00:28:21.630 --> 00:28:25.620 align:middle line:84%
And by probing, I mean if our
wavelength of our incoming light

00:28:25.620 --> 00:28:33.810 align:middle line:84%
here, which is lambda i,
which is 2 pi upon Ki--

00:28:33.810 --> 00:28:38.310 align:middle line:84%
if lambda i is smaller
than the Debye length,

00:28:38.310 --> 00:28:41.665 align:middle line:84%
then we end up with
incoherent scattering.

00:28:41.665 --> 00:28:44.780 align:middle line:90%


00:28:44.780 --> 00:28:48.680 align:middle line:84%
So this wavelength here is
smaller than the length scale

00:28:48.680 --> 00:28:52.460 align:middle line:84%
on which the particles can
organize themselves and actually

00:28:52.460 --> 00:28:53.270 align:middle line:90%
look like a plasma.

00:28:53.270 --> 00:28:56.640 align:middle line:84%
So instead, we just end up
looking like a random gas.

00:28:56.640 --> 00:28:59.000 align:middle line:84%
But if we end up in
the opposite limit,

00:28:59.000 --> 00:29:02.360 align:middle line:84%
where the Debye length
is less than lambda i,

00:29:02.360 --> 00:29:04.460 align:middle line:90%
we get coherent scattering.

00:29:04.460 --> 00:29:07.130 align:middle line:84%
Because on this
length scale here,

00:29:07.130 --> 00:29:11.900 align:middle line:84%
we end up being able to see the
plasma as a coherent object.

00:29:11.900 --> 00:29:17.190 align:middle line:84%
So this coherence is expressed
in the form of waves here.

00:29:17.190 --> 00:29:20.270 align:middle line:84%
And so we end up with a
very important parameter

00:29:20.270 --> 00:29:24.590 align:middle line:84%
that we call alpha, and
we define alpha as 1

00:29:24.590 --> 00:29:29.630 align:middle line:90%
upon K lambda Debye--

00:29:29.630 --> 00:29:32.540 align:middle line:90%
yeah, kind of fibbed here.

00:29:32.540 --> 00:29:34.550 align:middle line:84%
We'll get back to
that in a moment.

00:29:34.550 --> 00:29:37.430 align:middle line:84%
And if you have
alpha less than 1,

00:29:37.430 --> 00:29:39.170 align:middle line:90%
you're in the incoherent regime.

00:29:39.170 --> 00:29:40.970 align:middle line:84%
If you have alpha
greater than 1,

00:29:40.970 --> 00:29:42.890 align:middle line:90%
you're in the coherent regime.

00:29:42.890 --> 00:29:44.510 align:middle line:84%
This shouldn't
have been lambda i.

00:29:44.510 --> 00:29:46.520 align:middle line:84%
This should have
just been lambda,

00:29:46.520 --> 00:29:56.200 align:middle line:84%
and this lambda
here is 2 pi upon K,

00:29:56.200 --> 00:29:58.390 align:middle line:90%
where K is that Ks minus Ki.

00:29:58.390 --> 00:30:01.110 align:middle line:90%


00:30:01.110 --> 00:30:04.050 align:middle line:84%
So this is saying, if the mode
that you're scattering off

00:30:04.050 --> 00:30:06.582 align:middle line:84%
has a wavelength, which is
less than the Debye length,

00:30:06.582 --> 00:30:08.790 align:middle line:84%
then you're just scattering
off individual particles.

00:30:08.790 --> 00:30:11.100 align:middle line:84%
If the mode you're scattering
off has a wavelength

00:30:11.100 --> 00:30:12.300 align:middle line:84%
that's greater than
the Debye length--

00:30:12.300 --> 00:30:13.950 align:middle line:84%
you're scattering
off the full plasma--

00:30:13.950 --> 00:30:16.140 align:middle line:90%
you're scattering off the waves.

00:30:16.140 --> 00:30:19.770 align:middle line:84%
And you get to choose which
regime you're in because--

00:30:19.770 --> 00:30:22.295 align:middle line:84%
well, you don't get
to choose how dense

00:30:22.295 --> 00:30:23.670 align:middle line:84%
and how hot your
plasma is, which

00:30:23.670 --> 00:30:24.962 align:middle line:90%
is what goes into Debye length.

00:30:24.962 --> 00:30:31.090 align:middle line:84%
But you do get to choose this K
by where we place our scatterer.

00:30:31.090 --> 00:30:31.590 align:middle line:90%
Let's see.

00:30:31.590 --> 00:30:34.440 align:middle line:84%
I had that nice formula
for K previously.

00:30:34.440 --> 00:30:39.930 align:middle line:90%


00:30:39.930 --> 00:30:52.160 align:middle line:84%
Remember that K is equal to 2Ki
sine theta upon 2, like that.

00:30:52.160 --> 00:30:57.010 align:middle line:84%
So, by choosing my angle
theta, I can make this Ki--

00:30:57.010 --> 00:30:58.960 align:middle line:84%
multiply by something
arbitrarily small,

00:30:58.960 --> 00:31:01.480 align:middle line:84%
I can make K arbitrarily
small, and so I can

00:31:01.480 --> 00:31:03.200 align:middle line:90%
make alpha arbitrarily large.

00:31:03.200 --> 00:31:06.040 align:middle line:84%
So I get to choose by where
I place my detector not

00:31:06.040 --> 00:31:08.560 align:middle line:84%
just the scattering
angle, but, also, I get

00:31:08.560 --> 00:31:10.810 align:middle line:90%
to choose which regime I'm in.

00:31:10.810 --> 00:31:12.640 align:middle line:84%
Now, it may be that,
for some plasmas,

00:31:12.640 --> 00:31:15.438 align:middle line:84%
this theta is so very, very,
very close to the direction

00:31:15.438 --> 00:31:17.980 align:middle line:84%
that the laser beam's pointing
in that we can't realistically

00:31:17.980 --> 00:31:19.480 align:middle line:90%
do coherent scattering.

00:31:19.480 --> 00:31:21.640 align:middle line:84%
But there is still a
regime where the scattering

00:31:21.640 --> 00:31:22.726 align:middle line:90%
will be coherent there.

00:31:22.726 --> 00:31:27.577 align:middle line:90%


00:31:27.577 --> 00:31:29.410 align:middle line:84%
And if this doesn't
make sense, again, we're

00:31:29.410 --> 00:31:31.212 align:middle line:84%
going to do it
mathematically later on.

00:31:31.212 --> 00:31:33.670 align:middle line:84%
But this is just to give you
an idea of where we're headed.

00:31:33.670 --> 00:31:36.310 align:middle line:84%
And the next thing that
we're going to be focusing on

00:31:36.310 --> 00:31:38.830 align:middle line:90%
is this incoherent regime.

00:31:38.830 --> 00:31:39.822 align:middle line:90%
Yeah?

00:31:39.822 --> 00:31:46.090 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

00:31:46.090 --> 00:31:48.980 align:middle line:84%
JACK HARE: It is-- it comes
from the sum of all of these

00:31:48.980 --> 00:31:49.480 align:middle line:90%
together.

00:31:49.480 --> 00:31:50.470 align:middle line:90%
Yeah, exactly.

00:31:50.470 --> 00:31:55.120 align:middle line:84%
Effectively, the wave
correlates the electron density

00:31:55.120 --> 00:31:57.550 align:middle line:84%
fluctuations such that,
when you scatter off

00:31:57.550 --> 00:31:59.470 align:middle line:84%
those electron
density fluctuations,

00:31:59.470 --> 00:32:01.300 align:middle line:84%
all of the electric
fields from them

00:32:01.300 --> 00:32:03.760 align:middle line:84%
end up at your
spectrometer in phase,

00:32:03.760 --> 00:32:06.980 align:middle line:90%
and they constructively add up.

00:32:06.980 --> 00:32:08.567 align:middle line:84%
So if you've done
X-ray spectroscopy

00:32:08.567 --> 00:32:10.150 align:middle line:84%
and you've looked
at Bragg scattering,

00:32:10.150 --> 00:32:12.460 align:middle line:84%
some people like to look at this
in terms of Bragg scattering.

00:32:12.460 --> 00:32:13.835 align:middle line:84%
But I find most
people these days

00:32:13.835 --> 00:32:16.070 align:middle line:84%
haven't done X-ray spectroscopy
and Bragg scattering,

00:32:16.070 --> 00:32:17.903 align:middle line:84%
and so it's not a useful
way to describe it.

00:32:17.903 --> 00:32:21.430 align:middle line:84%
But if you've seen it like
that, the wave makes a grating,

00:32:21.430 --> 00:32:23.470 align:middle line:84%
and that grating,
therefore, gives us

00:32:23.470 --> 00:32:25.780 align:middle line:90%
constructive interference.

00:32:25.780 --> 00:32:26.847 align:middle line:90%
Other question?

00:32:26.847 --> 00:32:34.310 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

00:32:34.310 --> 00:32:35.720 align:middle line:84%
JACK HARE: Just
how it's defined.

00:32:35.720 --> 00:32:38.178 align:middle line:84%
You'll see later on-- if I
think we didn't put it in there,

00:32:38.178 --> 00:32:41.130 align:middle line:84%
there'd be lots of 2 pi's
showing up everywhere.

00:32:41.130 --> 00:32:43.160 align:middle line:84%
So when we derive
this more formally,

00:32:43.160 --> 00:32:45.560 align:middle line:84%
you'll see this factor alpha
show up in the equations.

00:32:45.560 --> 00:32:48.440 align:middle line:84%
And it will literally be a
parameter alpha that multiplies

00:32:48.440 --> 00:32:50.840 align:middle line:84%
the incoherent term and like
a 1/alpha over alpha that

00:32:50.840 --> 00:32:52.490 align:middle line:84%
multiplies the coherent term--
or the other way around--

00:32:52.490 --> 00:32:53.198 align:middle line:90%
other way around.

00:32:53.198 --> 00:32:56.360 align:middle line:84%
And so, if alpha is largest,
incoherent term gets suppressed,

00:32:56.360 --> 00:32:57.860 align:middle line:84%
and the coherent
term gets enhanced.

00:32:57.860 --> 00:33:00.805 align:middle line:84%
And if I put it in with your
lambda over lambda E, which

00:33:00.805 --> 00:33:02.180 align:middle line:84%
is perfectly
reasonable, I'd have

00:33:02.180 --> 00:33:04.250 align:middle line:84%
like a 2 pi squared or
something somewhere,

00:33:04.250 --> 00:33:05.460 align:middle line:90%
which I don't want to do.

00:33:05.460 --> 00:33:06.980 align:middle line:90%
So this is a better definition.

00:33:06.980 --> 00:33:08.730 align:middle line:90%
Yeah.

00:33:08.730 --> 00:33:09.230 align:middle line:90%
Yeah?

00:33:09.230 --> 00:33:18.430 align:middle line:90%


00:33:18.430 --> 00:33:18.940 align:middle line:90%
Yeah.

00:33:18.940 --> 00:33:20.398 align:middle line:90%
So, again, we will get to that.

00:33:20.398 --> 00:33:21.940 align:middle line:84%
I don't think anything
I've said here

00:33:21.940 --> 00:33:24.920 align:middle line:84%
reaches the level of rigor where
we can really say that or not.

00:33:24.920 --> 00:33:27.693 align:middle line:84%
So this is just like a guide
to where we're going next.

00:33:27.693 --> 00:33:29.860 align:middle line:84%
But, like I said, we're
going to derive the equation

00:33:29.860 --> 00:33:32.360 align:middle line:84%
where alpha shows up
explicitly as a parameter.

00:33:32.360 --> 00:33:35.500 align:middle line:84%
And then we'll say, OK,
depending on the value of alpha,

00:33:35.500 --> 00:33:37.468 align:middle line:84%
you see more
incoherent or coherent.

00:33:37.468 --> 00:33:39.760 align:middle line:84%
And it's important to note
that, when alpha is about 1,

00:33:39.760 --> 00:33:42.550 align:middle line:84%
you have both of these spectra
at the same time showing up--

00:33:42.550 --> 00:33:43.640 align:middle line:90%
both of these effects.

00:33:43.640 --> 00:33:46.210 align:middle line:84%
So you're probably
going to end up

00:33:46.210 --> 00:33:49.570 align:middle line:84%
seeing some of both
types of scattering.

00:33:49.570 --> 00:33:50.720 align:middle line:90%
Yeah.

00:33:50.720 --> 00:33:51.670 align:middle line:90%
Any questions on that?

00:33:51.670 --> 00:33:55.310 align:middle line:90%


00:33:55.310 --> 00:33:56.399 align:middle line:90%
Yeah?

00:33:56.399 --> 00:34:07.646 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

00:34:07.646 --> 00:34:09.737 align:middle line:90%


00:34:09.737 --> 00:34:11.112 align:middle line:84%
JACK HARE: Oh,
yeah, that's fine.

00:34:11.112 --> 00:34:11.200 align:middle line:90%
Don't worry about it.

00:34:11.200 --> 00:34:12.090 align:middle line:90%
What's 2 pi between friends?

00:34:12.090 --> 00:34:13.889 align:middle line:84%
So this is-- again, this
is like, what does it

00:34:13.889 --> 00:34:15.120 align:middle line:90%
mean to be much less than 1?

00:34:15.120 --> 00:34:16.953 align:middle line:84%
What does it mean to
be much greater than 1?

00:34:16.953 --> 00:34:18.620 align:middle line:84%
Does a factor of 6
matter if I tell you

00:34:18.620 --> 00:34:21.120 align:middle line:84%
something is much less than 1--
if it's much greater than 1?

00:34:21.120 --> 00:34:21.810 align:middle line:90%
Yeah.

00:34:21.810 --> 00:34:24.010 align:middle line:84%
If that was the point,
yes, fine, but--

00:34:24.010 --> 00:34:24.510 align:middle line:90%
yeah.

00:34:24.510 --> 00:34:26.639 align:middle line:84%
[CHUCKLES] I can
rewrite these, I guess.

00:34:26.639 --> 00:34:29.277 align:middle line:84%
I can rewrite like a
k for Debye length,

00:34:29.277 --> 00:34:31.110 align:middle line:84%
but then that's weird
because you don't know

00:34:31.110 --> 00:34:34.530 align:middle line:90%
the formula for that, so yeah.

00:34:34.530 --> 00:34:35.340 align:middle line:90%
Let's keep going.

00:34:35.340 --> 00:34:39.265 align:middle line:90%


00:34:39.265 --> 00:34:40.890 align:middle line:84%
I'm going to need a
lot of board space.

00:34:40.890 --> 00:35:07.003 align:middle line:90%


00:35:07.003 --> 00:35:08.878 align:middle line:84%
Now we're going to do
the Fourier transforms.

00:35:08.878 --> 00:35:11.860 align:middle line:90%


00:35:11.860 --> 00:35:16.390 align:middle line:84%
So we're looking at
incoherent scattering.

00:35:16.390 --> 00:35:18.557 align:middle line:84%
You won't even notice where
I've made the assumption

00:35:18.557 --> 00:35:19.598 align:middle line:90%
of incoherent scattering.

00:35:19.598 --> 00:35:21.520 align:middle line:84%
You'll only spot it,
probably, when we go back

00:35:21.520 --> 00:35:23.320 align:middle line:90%
and do coherent scattering.

00:35:23.320 --> 00:35:25.900 align:middle line:84%
But just to be clear,
we're only going

00:35:25.900 --> 00:35:29.070 align:middle line:84%
to get the incoherent component
out of this treatment.

00:35:29.070 --> 00:35:35.150 align:middle line:84%
So our scattered electric field
measured at our detector at time

00:35:35.150 --> 00:35:39.770 align:middle line:84%
t is equal to r e over R--
classical electron radius--

00:35:39.770 --> 00:35:42.240 align:middle line:84%
over the distance to
the spectrometer--

00:35:42.240 --> 00:35:45.020 align:middle line:84%
this tensor pi,
which, remember, is

00:35:45.020 --> 00:35:48.800 align:middle line:84%
equivalent to s hat
cross s hat cross this,

00:35:48.800 --> 00:35:52.560 align:middle line:84%
is just something that tells you
the shape of the emitted field

00:35:52.560 --> 00:35:53.060 align:middle line:90%
here.

00:35:53.060 --> 00:35:57.460 align:middle line:84%
And this tensor is
acting on the scattered--

00:35:57.460 --> 00:36:01.840 align:middle line:84%
or the incident electric field
at position r and at time

00:36:01.840 --> 00:36:03.320 align:middle line:90%
t prime.

00:36:03.320 --> 00:36:06.860 align:middle line:84%
So if I do the Fourier
transformation of this and I

00:36:06.860 --> 00:36:11.000 align:middle line:84%
want to know what the frequency
is-- the scattered frequency--

00:36:11.000 --> 00:36:11.750 align:middle line:90%
and because--

00:36:11.750 --> 00:36:17.180 align:middle line:84%
[CHUCKLES]-- so we're going to
be swapping again very freely

00:36:17.180 --> 00:36:21.500 align:middle line:84%
between omega s mu
s-- so, once again,

00:36:21.500 --> 00:36:23.570 align:middle line:84%
factors of 2 pi
flying everywhere.

00:36:23.570 --> 00:36:26.885 align:middle line:84%
But it-- so I'm going to
write this as a function of mu

00:36:26.885 --> 00:36:28.730 align:middle line:84%
s because this is
what we measure,

00:36:28.730 --> 00:36:30.887 align:middle line:84%
and this is what Hutchinson
uses in his book.

00:36:30.887 --> 00:36:32.720 align:middle line:84%
But what I'm doing with
Fourier transforms--

00:36:32.720 --> 00:36:33.970 align:middle line:90%
I'm going to be using omega s.

00:36:33.970 --> 00:36:37.550 align:middle line:84%
So just feel free to keep adding
2 pi's and getting rid of them

00:36:37.550 --> 00:36:38.970 align:middle line:90%
as you see fit.

00:36:38.970 --> 00:36:41.930 align:middle line:84%
So this is just a
standard definition

00:36:41.930 --> 00:36:43.500 align:middle line:90%
of a Fourier transform.

00:36:43.500 --> 00:36:50.780 align:middle line:84%
We have the electric field in
time times by e to the i omega

00:36:50.780 --> 00:36:53.750 align:middle line:90%
s c t dt.

00:36:53.750 --> 00:36:58.620 align:middle line:90%


00:36:58.620 --> 00:37:01.600 align:middle line:84%
Now, we already
mentioned we have

00:37:01.600 --> 00:37:03.790 align:middle line:84%
a discrepancy between
t prime, which

00:37:03.790 --> 00:37:06.760 align:middle line:84%
is going to be inside
this, and t out here.

00:37:06.760 --> 00:37:16.340 align:middle line:84%
So t prime is equal to
t minus R minus s hat

00:37:16.340 --> 00:37:19.850 align:middle line:90%
dot lowercase r upon c.

00:37:19.850 --> 00:37:23.510 align:middle line:84%
And we can also say that
the dispersion relationship

00:37:23.510 --> 00:37:26.360 align:middle line:84%
for our scattered wave is
just the vacuum dispersion

00:37:26.360 --> 00:37:26.930 align:middle line:90%
relationship.

00:37:26.930 --> 00:37:30.980 align:middle line:84%
So K is equal to
omega upon c s hat.

00:37:30.980 --> 00:37:32.510 align:middle line:84%
By the way, this
is one place where,

00:37:32.510 --> 00:37:35.900 align:middle line:84%
if you want to modify this to
take into account the O mode

00:37:35.900 --> 00:37:38.465 align:middle line:84%
dispersion in a plasma, that
you can modify this here.

00:37:38.465 --> 00:37:40.340 align:middle line:84%
But it doesn't actually
make a big difference

00:37:40.340 --> 00:37:42.120 align:middle line:90%
to the derivation.

00:37:42.120 --> 00:37:48.470 align:middle line:84%
This is going to allow us
to replace this s hat here

00:37:48.470 --> 00:37:49.460 align:middle line:90%
like that.

00:37:49.460 --> 00:37:53.850 align:middle line:84%
We're also going
to say that dt is

00:37:53.850 --> 00:38:02.310 align:middle line:84%
equal to dt prime times a factor
of 1 minus s hat dot beta,

00:38:02.310 --> 00:38:03.120 align:middle line:90%
like this.

00:38:03.120 --> 00:38:08.580 align:middle line:84%
And we said that anything
on the first order in v/c

00:38:08.580 --> 00:38:09.810 align:middle line:90%
is much less than 1--

00:38:09.810 --> 00:38:11.680 align:middle line:90%
we drop it.

00:38:11.680 --> 00:38:14.550 align:middle line:84%
So, in fact, we're going to
just switch between t, e t,

00:38:14.550 --> 00:38:15.685 align:middle line:90%
and dt prime.

00:38:15.685 --> 00:38:17.310 align:middle line:84%
We can't do the same
for t prime and t.

00:38:17.310 --> 00:38:18.893 align:middle line:84%
They are not the
same time coordinate,

00:38:18.893 --> 00:38:21.840 align:middle line:84%
but the amount they
change by is the same

00:38:21.840 --> 00:38:24.450 align:middle line:84%
because we're not dealing with
relativistic time dilation

00:38:24.450 --> 00:38:26.340 align:middle line:90%
in this treatment here.

00:38:26.340 --> 00:38:27.960 align:middle line:84%
So now I can go
back to this, and I

00:38:27.960 --> 00:38:32.160 align:middle line:84%
can start replacing all of
my t's with t primes here.

00:38:32.160 --> 00:38:38.850 align:middle line:84%
And I'm going to end
up with r e upon R--

00:38:38.850 --> 00:38:44.540 align:middle line:90%


00:38:44.540 --> 00:38:46.650 align:middle line:84%
am I really going to
make that much of a jump?

00:38:46.650 --> 00:38:50.535 align:middle line:90%


00:38:50.535 --> 00:38:52.910 align:middle line:84%
[VOCALIZING]-- I'm not going
to make that much of a jump.

00:38:52.910 --> 00:38:56.450 align:middle line:84%
I just need to go back
up here and remind you

00:38:56.450 --> 00:39:10.392 align:middle line:84%
that this Ei has a factor
that looks like cosine of--

00:39:10.392 --> 00:39:11.600 align:middle line:90%
oh, this isn't going to work.

00:39:11.600 --> 00:39:13.349 align:middle line:90%
I don't want to do it like that.

00:39:13.349 --> 00:39:34.560 align:middle line:90%


00:39:34.560 --> 00:39:42.450 align:middle line:84%
And a factor of cosine Ki
dot r minus omega i t prime.

00:39:42.450 --> 00:39:46.740 align:middle line:84%
If I make the replacement
of t prime with t,

00:39:46.740 --> 00:39:55.520 align:middle line:84%
then this becomes cosine of
Ks r, which is the shared

00:39:55.520 --> 00:39:57.040 align:middle line:90%
phase for all of the particles.

00:39:57.040 --> 00:39:58.160 align:middle line:90%
This is just boring--

00:39:58.160 --> 00:40:00.290 align:middle line:84%
just the phase you pick
up as the wave travels

00:40:00.290 --> 00:40:09.802 align:middle line:84%
to the spectrometer-- minus
omega s of t minus Ks minus Ki

00:40:09.802 --> 00:40:14.190 align:middle line:84%
dot r of 0 that
we saw last time.

00:40:14.190 --> 00:40:16.095 align:middle line:90%
So when we go back down here--

00:40:16.095 --> 00:40:18.670 align:middle line:90%


00:40:18.670 --> 00:40:22.242 align:middle line:84%
I'm going to bring this boring
phase term out the front.

00:40:22.242 --> 00:40:24.200 align:middle line:84%
I'm going to turn everything
into exponentials.

00:40:24.200 --> 00:40:25.867 align:middle line:84%
So I'm just going to
replace this cosine

00:40:25.867 --> 00:40:29.180 align:middle line:84%
with an exponential i times
this phase factor here.

00:40:29.180 --> 00:40:38.280 align:middle line:84%
I'm going to bring this phase
factor exponential of iKs dot

00:40:38.280 --> 00:40:41.240 align:middle line:90%
r out of the front here.

00:40:41.240 --> 00:40:43.360 align:middle line:84%
But what I'm going to
leave inside the integral

00:40:43.360 --> 00:40:47.220 align:middle line:84%
is the integral of the
vector-- the tensor

00:40:47.220 --> 00:40:55.860 align:middle line:84%
pi dotted into the incident
electric field at r and t prime.

00:40:55.860 --> 00:40:58.550 align:middle line:90%


00:40:58.550 --> 00:41:03.720 align:middle line:84%
And all of this is
multiplied by this factor--

00:41:03.720 --> 00:41:06.100 align:middle line:90%
the Fourier transform factor.

00:41:06.100 --> 00:41:08.370 align:middle line:84%
But now I've taken t,
and I've replaced it

00:41:08.370 --> 00:41:10.815 align:middle line:84%
with t prime using
this equation.

00:41:10.815 --> 00:41:14.670 align:middle line:90%


00:41:14.670 --> 00:41:16.840 align:middle line:84%
And so this exponential
now has a term,

00:41:16.840 --> 00:41:26.750 align:middle line:84%
which looks like i omega
s t prime minus Ks dot r.

00:41:26.750 --> 00:41:28.820 align:middle line:84%
And this Fourier
transform is now

00:41:28.820 --> 00:41:32.570 align:middle line:84%
in terms of dt
prime instead of dt.

00:41:32.570 --> 00:41:36.000 align:middle line:90%


00:41:36.000 --> 00:41:39.630 align:middle line:84%
I then remember that
this electric field here

00:41:39.630 --> 00:41:41.640 align:middle line:90%
has this dependence--

00:41:41.640 --> 00:41:45.960 align:middle line:90%
Ki minus omega i t prime.

00:41:45.960 --> 00:41:48.960 align:middle line:84%
If I take that as
an exponential,

00:41:48.960 --> 00:41:52.380 align:middle line:84%
it will add with all these
exponential factors here.

00:41:52.380 --> 00:41:56.310 align:middle line:84%
And we will end up with an
equation that looks like r e

00:41:56.310 --> 00:42:03.000 align:middle line:84%
upon R, exponential of this
boring phase factor term iKs

00:42:03.000 --> 00:42:13.092 align:middle line:90%
dot r, integral of i dot Ei0.

00:42:13.092 --> 00:42:15.720 align:middle line:84%
So this is just the strength
of the electric field

00:42:15.720 --> 00:42:17.810 align:middle line:90%
and its polarization--

00:42:17.810 --> 00:42:26.880 align:middle line:84%
exponential of i
omega t prime minus K

00:42:26.880 --> 00:42:35.150 align:middle line:84%
dot r dt prime,
where, again, I'm

00:42:35.150 --> 00:42:41.400 align:middle line:84%
using those definitions of omega
and K that we had previously.

00:42:41.400 --> 00:42:47.310 align:middle line:84%
So this omega is
omega s minus omega i,

00:42:47.310 --> 00:42:51.724 align:middle line:90%
and this K is Ks minus Ki.

00:42:51.724 --> 00:42:54.390 align:middle line:90%


00:42:54.390 --> 00:42:58.170 align:middle line:84%
So I've now got something
where all of my t parameters

00:42:58.170 --> 00:42:59.530 align:middle line:90%
are t prime parameters.

00:42:59.530 --> 00:43:00.930 align:middle line:90%
So I can now do this integral.

00:43:00.930 --> 00:43:02.400 align:middle line:84%
I couldn't do it
up here because I

00:43:02.400 --> 00:43:05.670 align:middle line:84%
had a mixture of t primes inside
the scattered electric field

00:43:05.670 --> 00:43:07.805 align:middle line:90%
and t's for where I really am.

00:43:07.805 --> 00:43:09.180 align:middle line:84%
So you've really
got to take care

00:43:09.180 --> 00:43:13.550 align:middle line:84%
of doing all of these
Fourier transforms carefully.

00:43:13.550 --> 00:43:17.690 align:middle line:90%
This pi dot Ei0--

00:43:17.690 --> 00:43:20.970 align:middle line:84%
that can go outside
the integral as well.

00:43:20.970 --> 00:43:24.470 align:middle line:90%
It's just constant in time.

00:43:24.470 --> 00:43:27.320 align:middle line:84%
Remember, that's just s cross
s cross something like that.

00:43:27.320 --> 00:43:29.030 align:middle line:84%
That's set by where
our spectrometer is.

00:43:29.030 --> 00:43:30.947 align:middle line:84%
And we're assuming we've
got an infinite plane

00:43:30.947 --> 00:43:32.880 align:middle line:84%
wave but intensive
electric field change.

00:43:32.880 --> 00:43:35.384 align:middle line:84%
So what is this
Fourier transform?

00:43:35.384 --> 00:43:43.450 align:middle line:90%


00:43:43.450 --> 00:43:46.945 align:middle line:84%
Fourier transform of an
oscillating sinusoid.

00:43:46.945 --> 00:43:56.070 align:middle line:90%


00:43:56.070 --> 00:43:57.070 align:middle line:90%
Just a delta function.

00:43:57.070 --> 00:43:57.570 align:middle line:90%
Thank you.

00:43:57.570 --> 00:44:07.240 align:middle line:90%


00:44:07.240 --> 00:44:10.360 align:middle line:84%
There's a factor of 2 pi
from the Fourier transform

00:44:10.360 --> 00:44:13.760 align:middle line:84%
when we get the definition
of the delta function.

00:44:13.760 --> 00:44:18.920 align:middle line:84%
And then we've still
got this tensor dotted

00:44:18.920 --> 00:44:21.800 align:middle line:84%
into the electric field vector
to give us a scattering pattern.

00:44:21.800 --> 00:44:29.220 align:middle line:84%
Now we have a delta function
K dot v minus omega.

00:44:29.220 --> 00:44:32.190 align:middle line:84%
And if you want to follow along
this in Hutchinson's book,

00:44:32.190 --> 00:44:41.440 align:middle line:84%
this derivation here is
Hutchinson's 7.2.15--

00:44:41.440 --> 00:44:43.280 align:middle line:90%
like that.

00:44:43.280 --> 00:44:44.870 align:middle line:90%
So this is actually nothing new.

00:44:44.870 --> 00:44:49.180 align:middle line:84%
This is-- once again, we have
just shown that our scattering

00:44:49.180 --> 00:44:50.980 align:middle line:90%
is going to be off--

00:44:50.980 --> 00:44:52.720 align:middle line:84%
the scattering of
the particle is

00:44:52.720 --> 00:44:56.050 align:middle line:84%
going to give us a scattered
frequency omega, which

00:44:56.050 --> 00:44:57.500 align:middle line:84%
is K dot v. But
now we've done it

00:44:57.500 --> 00:44:58.750 align:middle line:90%
in terms of Fourier transform.

00:44:58.750 --> 00:45:02.850 align:middle line:84%
Previously, we did it in
real space and real time,

00:45:02.850 --> 00:45:04.600 align:middle line:84%
and we just hand-waved
our way through it.

00:45:04.600 --> 00:45:10.460 align:middle line:84%
Now, we've got the spectra
actually in a much more--

00:45:10.460 --> 00:45:12.440 align:middle line:90%
slightly more rigorous way.

00:45:12.440 --> 00:45:14.200 align:middle line:84%
So this is still
just a scattering off

00:45:14.200 --> 00:45:16.150 align:middle line:90%
a single particle.

00:45:16.150 --> 00:45:20.890 align:middle line:84%
If we want the scattered power
off this single particle,

00:45:20.890 --> 00:45:26.232 align:middle line:84%
then we again go to c
epsilon 0 r squared.

00:45:26.232 --> 00:45:27.940 align:middle line:84%
And now we need to do
the time averaging.

00:45:27.940 --> 00:45:36.490 align:middle line:84%
So to time average, we integrate
between minus t/2 to t/2,

00:45:36.490 --> 00:45:38.393 align:middle line:90%
and we divide by 1/t here.

00:45:38.393 --> 00:45:41.060 align:middle line:84%
We're going to take the limit of
t going to infinity in a moment

00:45:41.060 --> 00:45:43.352 align:middle line:84%
so it will start to look more
like a Fourier transform.

00:45:43.352 --> 00:45:48.956 align:middle line:84%
And this average power, again,
is defined in terms of the time.

00:45:48.956 --> 00:45:51.200 align:middle line:90%
So Es is a function of time.

00:45:51.200 --> 00:45:55.800 align:middle line:84%
Es star is a function of
time, integrated d time.

00:45:55.800 --> 00:46:00.880 align:middle line:84%
But if we take the limit
as t goes to infinity,

00:46:00.880 --> 00:46:03.250 align:middle line:84%
we can use something called
Parseval's theorem, which

00:46:03.250 --> 00:46:11.850 align:middle line:84%
says that this quantity here
is equal to the integral Es

00:46:11.850 --> 00:46:19.050 align:middle line:84%
in frequency space, dotted
with Es in frequency space,

00:46:19.050 --> 00:46:23.810 align:middle line:84%
integrated over frequency, still
with a 1 over time out the front

00:46:23.810 --> 00:46:24.310 align:middle line:90%
here.

00:46:24.310 --> 00:46:25.830 align:middle line:90%
So this is a kind of--

00:46:25.830 --> 00:46:29.100 align:middle line:84%
[VOCALIZING], I'm not quite
sure about the 1 over time out

00:46:29.100 --> 00:46:29.810 align:middle line:90%
the front there--

00:46:29.810 --> 00:46:32.390 align:middle line:90%
Parseval's theorem.

00:46:32.390 --> 00:46:33.500 align:middle line:90%
Dimensions don't work.

00:46:33.500 --> 00:46:46.538 align:middle line:90%


00:46:46.538 --> 00:46:49.080 align:middle line:84%
I think I should have paused
earlier and asked for questions,

00:46:49.080 --> 00:46:51.122 align:middle line:84%
because this is actually
an excellent derivation.

00:46:51.122 --> 00:46:52.830 align:middle line:90%
So let's just go back--

00:46:52.830 --> 00:46:54.540 align:middle line:90%
draw a line under this here--

00:46:54.540 --> 00:46:56.790 align:middle line:84%
see if anyone has any questions
on how we got to here.

00:46:56.790 --> 00:47:14.780 align:middle line:90%


00:47:14.780 --> 00:47:16.350 align:middle line:90%
OK, then, we'll go on.

00:47:16.350 --> 00:47:19.276 align:middle line:84%
So now we're trying to
calculate-- yeah, all right.

00:47:19.276 --> 00:47:21.350 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

00:47:21.350 --> 00:47:22.490 align:middle line:90%
JACK HARE: Yeah.

00:47:22.490 --> 00:47:23.530 align:middle line:90%
Yeah, sure, sure, sure.

00:47:23.530 --> 00:47:26.870 align:middle line:84%
I will pause in a
second [INAUDIBLE].

00:47:26.870 --> 00:47:29.408 align:middle line:84%
I just want to get through
this section first.

00:47:29.408 --> 00:47:33.890 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

00:47:33.890 --> 00:47:36.860 align:middle line:84%
JACK HARE: No, this is
just the incident-- i Ei0,

00:47:36.860 --> 00:47:39.530 align:middle line:84%
which is just the strength and
the direction of the electric

00:47:39.530 --> 00:47:41.300 align:middle line:90%
field, without any of its--

00:47:41.300 --> 00:47:49.150 align:middle line:84%
so it's-- the incident electric
field is Ei0 times by this

00:47:49.150 --> 00:47:49.650 align:middle line:90%
cosine.

00:47:49.650 --> 00:47:52.650 align:middle line:84%
So I put all of the fluctuations
and interesting time and space

00:47:52.650 --> 00:47:53.970 align:middle line:90%
variation in the cosine.

00:47:53.970 --> 00:47:57.670 align:middle line:84%
But this is just our strength
for our electric field here.

00:47:57.670 --> 00:48:00.247 align:middle line:84%
So all this is
saying here is that

00:48:00.247 --> 00:48:01.830 align:middle line:84%
the scattered electric
field is linear

00:48:01.830 --> 00:48:04.430 align:middle line:90%
in the incident electric field.

00:48:04.430 --> 00:48:06.255 align:middle line:84%
All of the funkiness
with time and space

00:48:06.255 --> 00:48:07.630 align:middle line:84%
has gone into the
delta function.

00:48:07.630 --> 00:48:10.450 align:middle line:90%


00:48:10.450 --> 00:48:14.870 align:middle line:84%
So here, we want to be able
to evaluate this function,

00:48:14.870 --> 00:48:17.570 align:middle line:84%
but we don't actually
have a great expression

00:48:17.570 --> 00:48:20.390 align:middle line:90%
for Es a function of time.

00:48:20.390 --> 00:48:22.730 align:middle line:84%
But we do now have a
great expression for Es

00:48:22.730 --> 00:48:23.970 align:middle line:90%
a function of frequency.

00:48:23.970 --> 00:48:27.790 align:middle line:84%
So we use Parseval's
theorem to convert

00:48:27.790 --> 00:48:30.580 align:middle line:84%
between the time-power
spectrum and

00:48:30.580 --> 00:48:32.050 align:middle line:90%
the frequency-power spectrum.

00:48:32.050 --> 00:48:40.650 align:middle line:84%
And that means we can now
write down our scattered power

00:48:40.650 --> 00:48:45.660 align:middle line:84%
dP into some scattering volume
or scattering solid angle, omega

00:48:45.660 --> 00:48:49.150 align:middle line:84%
s, and some
scattering frequency.

00:48:49.150 --> 00:49:01.346 align:middle line:84%
And this is equal to c
epsilon 0 r squared of K--

00:49:01.346 --> 00:49:05.570 align:middle line:84%
the limit of t
going to infinity.

00:49:05.570 --> 00:49:08.027 align:middle line:84%
So we're taking a
long time slice.

00:49:08.027 --> 00:49:09.860 align:middle line:84%
This allows us to use
our Fourier transforms

00:49:09.860 --> 00:49:13.130 align:middle line:84%
where the limits here are
plus and minus infinity here.

00:49:13.130 --> 00:49:18.230 align:middle line:84%
And we do the Fourier
transform of this--

00:49:18.230 --> 00:49:19.410 align:middle line:90%
sorry.

00:49:19.410 --> 00:49:22.220 align:middle line:90%
Don't do the Fourier transform.

00:49:22.220 --> 00:49:25.090 align:middle line:84%
We've taken d nu
from this side here,

00:49:25.090 --> 00:49:28.240 align:middle line:84%
and we've put it down here
to form our scattered power

00:49:28.240 --> 00:49:29.700 align:middle line:90%
per frequency bin here.

00:49:29.700 --> 00:49:31.450 align:middle line:84%
So we're getting rid
of this integral now.

00:49:31.450 --> 00:49:34.300 align:middle line:84%
And now we're trying to
evaluate this term, which looks

00:49:34.300 --> 00:49:37.480 align:middle line:90%
like Es dot Es star instead.

00:49:37.480 --> 00:49:39.590 align:middle line:84%
And we have that
equation up here.

00:49:39.590 --> 00:49:42.780 align:middle line:90%
So we want this term--

00:49:42.780 --> 00:49:44.100 align:middle line:90%
I'm going to take it from here.

00:49:44.100 --> 00:49:48.258 align:middle line:90%


00:49:48.258 --> 00:49:49.800 align:middle line:84%
So, first of all,
we have a term that

00:49:49.800 --> 00:49:53.820 align:middle line:84%
looks like r E squared
upon R squared.

00:49:53.820 --> 00:49:58.490 align:middle line:90%


00:49:58.490 --> 00:50:02.810 align:middle line:84%
Then this term will cancel out
because we'll have it times

00:50:02.810 --> 00:50:05.160 align:middle line:84%
by its complex conjugate,
so we can get rid of it.

00:50:05.160 --> 00:50:06.050 align:middle line:90%
Good riddance.

00:50:06.050 --> 00:50:11.910 align:middle line:84%
There will be a term that
looks like 4 pi squared here.

00:50:11.910 --> 00:50:23.510 align:middle line:84%
We'll have a term that looks
like pi dotted into the incident

00:50:23.510 --> 00:50:25.430 align:middle line:90%
electric field squared.

00:50:25.430 --> 00:50:28.280 align:middle line:84%
And then we'll have a
term that looks like delta

00:50:28.280 --> 00:50:33.210 align:middle line:90%
squared K dot v minus omega.

00:50:33.210 --> 00:50:37.280 align:middle line:90%


00:50:37.280 --> 00:50:41.510 align:middle line:84%
The trouble with this is that we
have a delta function squared.

00:50:41.510 --> 00:50:44.420 align:middle line:84%
It's a pretty odd object because
a delta function is already

00:50:44.420 --> 00:50:47.448 align:middle line:84%
a pretty odd object, and
squaring it makes it just odder.

00:50:47.448 --> 00:50:49.490 align:middle line:84%
So we're going to do the
sort of thing that makes

00:50:49.490 --> 00:50:51.410 align:middle line:90%
the pure mathematicians wince.

00:50:51.410 --> 00:50:52.490 align:middle line:84%
And we're going to
say, [VOCALIZING], this

00:50:52.490 --> 00:50:54.380 align:middle line:84%
is a little bit like
a sinc function.

00:50:54.380 --> 00:50:58.930 align:middle line:84%
So a delta function--
it's sort of like a sinc.

00:50:58.930 --> 00:51:02.280 align:middle line:90%
And if our sinc function of t--

00:51:02.280 --> 00:51:04.635 align:middle line:90%
or, in this case, I guess, nu--

00:51:04.635 --> 00:51:07.730 align:middle line:90%


00:51:07.730 --> 00:51:10.100 align:middle line:84%
as this nu gets
very, very small.

00:51:10.100 --> 00:51:12.680 align:middle line:84%
So we have a function
that looks like a sinc,

00:51:12.680 --> 00:51:14.810 align:middle line:84%
and then we approximate
the delta function as just

00:51:14.810 --> 00:51:16.830 align:middle line:90%
a very, very, very narrow sinc.

00:51:16.830 --> 00:51:20.720 align:middle line:84%
And if you do this, you can
rewrite this delta squared

00:51:20.720 --> 00:51:26.690 align:middle line:84%
as looking like t upon 2
pi, just times the delta

00:51:26.690 --> 00:51:27.540 align:middle line:90%
function itself.

00:51:27.540 --> 00:51:30.950 align:middle line:84%
So delta function
squared of frequency

00:51:30.950 --> 00:51:35.510 align:middle line:84%
is equal to t upon 2 pi
delta function of frequency.

00:51:35.510 --> 00:51:37.430 align:middle line:84%
This is by far the
least satisfactory part

00:51:37.430 --> 00:51:39.170 align:middle line:90%
of this derivation, by the way.

00:51:39.170 --> 00:51:41.490 align:middle line:84%
But Hutchinson
doesn't even do it.

00:51:41.490 --> 00:51:42.450 align:middle line:90%
He just skips over it.

00:51:42.450 --> 00:51:44.060 align:middle line:84%
So I'm trying to
at least demystify

00:51:44.060 --> 00:51:45.890 align:middle line:90%
where this might come from.

00:51:45.890 --> 00:51:48.510 align:middle line:84%
But I don't know how to do
this very, very rigorously.

00:51:48.510 --> 00:51:49.760 align:middle line:90%
Let's just go with it for now.

00:51:49.760 --> 00:51:51.510 align:middle line:84%
We're going to replace
this delta function

00:51:51.510 --> 00:51:53.810 align:middle line:84%
with just a delta
function not squared

00:51:53.810 --> 00:51:56.560 align:middle line:84%
because those are the sorts
of things we can work with.

00:51:56.560 --> 00:51:59.040 align:middle line:84%
Then we can run
through all of this,

00:51:59.040 --> 00:52:05.940 align:middle line:84%
and we can find out that we have
r e squared c epsilon 0 limit

00:52:05.940 --> 00:52:15.570 align:middle line:84%
of t going to infinity of
1/t times t upon 2 pi--

00:52:15.570 --> 00:52:17.940 align:middle line:90%
that's this factor here--

00:52:17.940 --> 00:52:22.130 align:middle line:90%
times by 4 pi squared.

00:52:22.130 --> 00:52:27.430 align:middle line:84%
We still have this i dotted
into the electric field

00:52:27.430 --> 00:52:28.990 align:middle line:90%
strength squared.

00:52:28.990 --> 00:52:32.040 align:middle line:90%
And now we just have--

00:52:32.040 --> 00:52:34.190 align:middle line:90%
I'm running out of space--

00:52:34.190 --> 00:52:41.443 align:middle line:84%
this delta function of K dot
v minus omega not squared.

00:52:41.443 --> 00:52:43.360 align:middle line:84%
The convenient thing
about doing this is we've

00:52:43.360 --> 00:52:46.360 align:middle line:84%
generated a factor of t which
can cancel out with this t.

00:52:46.360 --> 00:52:49.270 align:middle line:84%
So we've canceled out
an infinity or a 0

00:52:49.270 --> 00:52:51.370 align:middle line:84%
that we've accidentally
introduced.

00:52:51.370 --> 00:52:54.670 align:middle line:84%
And now we've also got a 2 pi,
and that will cancel out some

00:52:54.670 --> 00:52:57.110 align:middle line:90%
of these 2 pi's.

00:52:57.110 --> 00:53:01.190 align:middle line:84%
The whole thing starts to look
a little bit more tractable.

00:53:01.190 --> 00:53:03.193 align:middle line:90%
And so the result is--

00:53:03.193 --> 00:53:05.360 align:middle line:84%
I don't quite have space
for it on this board, which

00:53:05.360 --> 00:53:07.610 align:middle line:84%
is a real shame after
we've come all this way.

00:53:07.610 --> 00:53:09.761 align:middle line:90%
I shall write it here--

00:53:09.761 --> 00:53:25.240 align:middle line:84%
dP d omega d nu is equal to r e
squared c epsilon 0 Ei0 squared.

00:53:25.240 --> 00:53:29.570 align:middle line:90%
What the hell is this?

00:53:29.570 --> 00:53:31.130 align:middle line:90%
I'm going to keep it as it was--

00:53:31.130 --> 00:53:33.800 align:middle line:90%


00:53:33.800 --> 00:53:47.970 align:middle line:84%
i dotted it into Ei squared
times 2 pi delta K dot v

00:53:47.970 --> 00:53:50.570 align:middle line:90%
minus omega.

00:53:50.570 --> 00:53:53.300 align:middle line:84%
The point is that this is what
we should call our spectrum.

00:53:53.300 --> 00:53:55.790 align:middle line:84%
We're looking at the power
scattered in a certain direction

00:53:55.790 --> 00:53:58.620 align:middle line:84%
into our spectrometer
per unit frequency.

00:53:58.620 --> 00:54:00.390 align:middle line:90%
And so we can now evaluate this.

00:54:00.390 --> 00:54:06.300 align:middle line:84%
And once again, we can say, if
we're looking at power per unit

00:54:06.300 --> 00:54:09.742 align:middle line:84%
frequency-- or
rather, dP d omega--

00:54:09.742 --> 00:54:11.700 align:middle line:84%
the power scattered for
a certain solid angle--

00:54:11.700 --> 00:54:14.010 align:middle line:84%
this tells us that,
from a single particle,

00:54:14.010 --> 00:54:17.520 align:middle line:84%
our spectra will just have a
little delta function then.

00:54:17.520 --> 00:54:21.790 align:middle line:84%
And that delta function will
be at a frequency omega,

00:54:21.790 --> 00:54:27.780 align:middle line:84%
which is equal to K dot v. So
if our initial laser line was

00:54:27.780 --> 00:54:32.040 align:middle line:84%
at some wavelength like
this-- this is omega i--

00:54:32.040 --> 00:54:39.270 align:middle line:84%
then this is at omega s
equals omega i plus omega--

00:54:39.270 --> 00:54:40.710 align:middle line:90%
and we say, aha.

00:54:40.710 --> 00:54:42.090 align:middle line:90%
This is blueshifted.

00:54:42.090 --> 00:54:43.570 align:middle line:90%
It's of higher frequency.

00:54:43.570 --> 00:54:45.960 align:middle line:90%
And so means the particle is--

00:54:45.960 --> 00:54:48.570 align:middle line:84%
got some component of
velocity towards us.

00:54:48.570 --> 00:54:51.570 align:middle line:84%
Again, this is all just
single-particle scattering,

00:54:51.570 --> 00:54:54.060 align:middle line:84%
but we're now working in the
Fourier domain as opposed

00:54:54.060 --> 00:54:56.880 align:middle line:84%
to in real space, which means
we can actually write down

00:54:56.880 --> 00:54:58.590 align:middle line:84%
equations for the spectrum,
which we couldn't do when

00:54:58.590 --> 00:54:59.840 align:middle line:90%
we were working in real space.

00:54:59.840 --> 00:55:03.160 align:middle line:84%
We just had a hand-wavy
argument for it.

00:55:03.160 --> 00:55:04.180 align:middle line:90%
Now I will pause.

00:55:04.180 --> 00:55:06.370 align:middle line:90%
Oh, one more thing.

00:55:06.370 --> 00:55:08.680 align:middle line:84%
Just so you can have
contact with the book again,

00:55:08.680 --> 00:55:15.900 align:middle line:84%
this is Hutchinson's
equation 7.2.19.

00:55:15.900 --> 00:55:18.815 align:middle line:84%
So in five equations,
he does all of this.

00:55:18.815 --> 00:55:22.890 align:middle line:84%
I have tried to spend a
little bit more time doing it.

00:55:22.890 --> 00:55:27.160 align:middle line:84%
But I will agree with anyone
who says this isn't [INAUDIBLE].

00:55:27.160 --> 00:55:27.760 align:middle line:90%
Questions?

00:55:27.760 --> 00:55:30.160 align:middle line:90%
Yeah?

00:55:30.160 --> 00:55:34.820 align:middle line:84%
AUDIENCE: Where did
that 1/t [INAUDIBLE]?

00:55:34.820 --> 00:55:38.770 align:middle line:90%
JACK HARE: [VOCALIZING] Yeah.

00:55:38.770 --> 00:55:46.980 align:middle line:84%
So what I have written
in my notes is 1/t here.

00:55:46.980 --> 00:55:49.740 align:middle line:84%
But if you set these
two equal to each other,

00:55:49.740 --> 00:55:52.890 align:middle line:84%
the dimensions don't add
up because of the limits

00:55:52.890 --> 00:55:55.090 align:middle line:84%
here, or because of what
we're integrating over.

00:55:55.090 --> 00:55:57.180 align:middle line:84%
So in a panic, I changed
it to be t because that

00:55:57.180 --> 00:55:58.348 align:middle line:90%
made the dimensions work.

00:55:58.348 --> 00:56:00.390 align:middle line:84%
But it makes the rest of
the derivation not work.

00:56:00.390 --> 00:56:04.410 align:middle line:84%
So probably, there's some reason
why we have this 1/t in front

00:56:04.410 --> 00:56:05.923 align:middle line:84%
of both of them
that I've missed.

00:56:05.923 --> 00:56:08.340 align:middle line:84%
And I'm very happy to go and
have a look at the derivation

00:56:08.340 --> 00:56:11.160 align:middle line:90%
again in Hutchinson's book--

00:56:11.160 --> 00:56:12.610 align:middle line:84%
try and work out
what's going on.

00:56:12.610 --> 00:56:17.040 align:middle line:84%
But what we are trying to do
is replace this integral here

00:56:17.040 --> 00:56:19.830 align:middle line:84%
over the electric field in
space with this integral

00:56:19.830 --> 00:56:21.660 align:middle line:84%
over the electric
field in frequency,

00:56:21.660 --> 00:56:23.800 align:middle line:84%
but the dimensions
don't quite work out.

00:56:23.800 --> 00:56:26.130 align:middle line:84%
So that's where the 1/t
was meant to come from,

00:56:26.130 --> 00:56:29.580 align:middle line:84%
and that 1/t is the one that
gets canceled by the t over 2 pi

00:56:29.580 --> 00:56:32.190 align:middle line:84%
that we get from our shoddy
treatment of the delta function.

00:56:32.190 --> 00:56:34.870 align:middle line:90%


00:56:34.870 --> 00:56:35.370 align:middle line:90%
Yeah.

00:56:35.370 --> 00:56:36.395 align:middle line:90%
Other question?

00:56:36.395 --> 00:56:37.020 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: Yeah.

00:56:37.020 --> 00:56:45.103 align:middle line:90%
So this whole [INAUDIBLE]

00:56:45.103 --> 00:56:47.270 align:middle line:84%
JACK HARE: If you're doing
a Fourier transformation,

00:56:47.270 --> 00:56:49.900 align:middle line:84%
you have to do it
over infinite time.

00:56:49.900 --> 00:56:52.680 align:middle line:90%
So this is just simply--

00:56:52.680 --> 00:56:54.990 align:middle line:84%
but if you put that
infinity in straight away,

00:56:54.990 --> 00:56:57.180 align:middle line:90%
then you start getting 0's.

00:56:57.180 --> 00:57:00.060 align:middle line:84%
So we as a t, where
it's a really big t.

00:57:00.060 --> 00:57:01.720 align:middle line:84%
But then eventually,
we cancel out,

00:57:01.720 --> 00:57:03.845 align:middle line:84%
so it's like you don't
actually care how big it is.

00:57:03.845 --> 00:57:07.290 align:middle line:84%
So to do this rigorously, you
actually have to do Laplace

00:57:07.290 --> 00:57:10.845 align:middle line:84%
transformation because the laser
is not-- cannot be a plane wave.

00:57:10.845 --> 00:57:12.970 align:middle line:84%
It's not traveling through
the plasma for all time.

00:57:12.970 --> 00:57:14.270 align:middle line:90%
It turns on at some time.

00:57:14.270 --> 00:57:16.770 align:middle line:84%
And so you have to do Laplace
transformations where you only

00:57:16.770 --> 00:57:18.630 align:middle line:84%
take into account
for t greater than 0.

00:57:18.630 --> 00:57:20.610 align:middle line:84%
But the mathematics of
that becomes harder,

00:57:20.610 --> 00:57:23.340 align:middle line:84%
so I'm doing these Fourier
transforms, and there, you

00:57:23.340 --> 00:57:25.060 align:middle line:90%
need infinite time.

00:57:25.060 --> 00:57:25.560 align:middle line:90%
Yeah.

00:57:25.560 --> 00:57:30.460 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

00:57:30.460 --> 00:57:32.560 align:middle line:90%
JACK HARE: Yeah.

00:57:32.560 --> 00:57:33.060 align:middle line:90%
Sorry?

00:57:33.060 --> 00:57:34.827 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

00:57:34.827 --> 00:57:35.660 align:middle line:90%
JACK HARE: This one?

00:57:35.660 --> 00:57:36.390 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: Yeah.

00:57:36.390 --> 00:57:38.483 align:middle line:84%
That represents
the time average?

00:57:38.483 --> 00:57:39.150 align:middle line:90%
JACK HARE: Yeah.

00:57:39.150 --> 00:57:42.690 align:middle line:84%
This is where-- the time
where we're working out

00:57:42.690 --> 00:57:45.270 align:middle line:84%
the average power
because we're working out

00:57:45.270 --> 00:57:47.580 align:middle line:84%
the instantaneous power,
we're integrating it

00:57:47.580 --> 00:57:51.410 align:middle line:84%
over some interval T, and
we're dividing by T. Yeah.

00:57:51.410 --> 00:57:53.100 align:middle line:84%
AUDIENCE: And then
we're [INAUDIBLE].

00:57:53.100 --> 00:57:55.350 align:middle line:84%
JACK HARE: And then afterwards
being like, yeah, but--

00:57:55.350 --> 00:57:56.850 align:middle line:84%
how long do you
need to do this for?

00:57:56.850 --> 00:57:58.650 align:middle line:84%
Well, to do this
for a plane wave,

00:57:58.650 --> 00:58:00.840 align:middle line:84%
you should do it
for a few cycles.

00:58:00.840 --> 00:58:04.710 align:middle line:84%
But to be rigorous, you want
to extend it out-- well, maybe

00:58:04.710 --> 00:58:05.840 align:middle line:90%
not rigorous in this case.

00:58:05.840 --> 00:58:07.215 align:middle line:84%
To be slightly
more rigorous, you

00:58:07.215 --> 00:58:08.490 align:middle line:84%
want to extend that
integral to all time

00:58:08.490 --> 00:58:10.950 align:middle line:84%
if you're really doing a
Fourier transform type approach.

00:58:10.950 --> 00:58:12.960 align:middle line:90%
Yeah.

00:58:12.960 --> 00:58:16.380 align:middle line:84%
And this is the requirement of
using Parseval's theorem, which

00:58:16.380 --> 00:58:18.090 align:middle line:84%
I clearly don't
know as well as I

00:58:18.090 --> 00:58:20.740 align:middle line:84%
thought I did because of this
problem with the units here.

00:58:20.740 --> 00:58:21.240 align:middle line:90%
Yeah.

00:58:21.240 --> 00:58:24.940 align:middle line:90%


00:58:24.940 --> 00:58:25.573 align:middle line:90%
Yeah.

00:58:25.573 --> 00:58:27.490 align:middle line:84%
Yeah, I'm confused,
because this is definitely

00:58:27.490 --> 00:58:30.820 align:middle line:84%
something that has dimensions
of electric field squared.

00:58:30.820 --> 00:58:34.810 align:middle line:84%
This does not have dimension
of electric field squared.

00:58:34.810 --> 00:58:36.190 align:middle line:90%
Any other questions?

00:58:36.190 --> 00:58:45.013 align:middle line:90%


00:58:45.013 --> 00:58:46.430 align:middle line:84%
The nice thing
about our treatment

00:58:46.430 --> 00:58:50.300 align:middle line:84%
is we said that, if we want
to get the scattered spectrum

00:58:50.300 --> 00:58:54.670 align:middle line:84%
from many particles, we
are not interested in how

00:58:54.670 --> 00:58:56.670 align:middle line:84%
the scattered electric
fields in those particles

00:58:56.670 --> 00:58:57.610 align:middle line:90%
interact with each other.

00:58:57.610 --> 00:58:58.680 align:middle line:90%
That's the coherent part.

00:58:58.680 --> 00:59:00.280 align:middle line:90%
This is the incoherent part.

00:59:00.280 --> 00:59:03.570 align:middle line:84%
So if we now have the scattering
spectrum from a single particle

00:59:03.570 --> 00:59:06.930 align:middle line:84%
and it's showing up
at a frequency that

00:59:06.930 --> 00:59:09.000 align:middle line:84%
is to do with that single
particle's velocity,

00:59:09.000 --> 00:59:11.910 align:middle line:84%
if we want the scattering
spectrum from many particles,

00:59:11.910 --> 00:59:15.300 align:middle line:84%
we simply sum the scattering
from each of the particles

00:59:15.300 --> 00:59:16.477 align:middle line:90%
V together.

00:59:16.477 --> 00:59:18.060 align:middle line:84%
So this now, you're
probably thinking,

00:59:18.060 --> 00:59:21.370 align:middle line:84%
starts to look like integration
over a distribution function.

00:59:21.370 --> 00:59:22.290 align:middle line:90%
So let's go do that.

00:59:22.290 --> 00:59:25.190 align:middle line:90%


00:59:25.190 --> 00:59:27.070 align:middle line:90%
Do I need to write that down?

00:59:27.070 --> 00:59:28.090 align:middle line:90%
No, I'm happy with that.

00:59:28.090 --> 00:59:49.250 align:middle line:90%


00:59:49.250 --> 00:59:51.620 align:middle line:84%
Actually, I'll write it down
again here so we've got it

00:59:51.620 --> 00:59:52.828 align:middle line:90%
on the page as we look at it.

00:59:52.828 --> 00:59:57.160 align:middle line:84%
So our scattered power
into some solid angle

00:59:57.160 --> 01:00:08.530 align:middle line:84%
into some frequency looks
like r e squared times i dot--

01:00:08.530 --> 01:00:10.480 align:middle line:90%
why am I writing it --

01:00:10.480 --> 01:00:11.753 align:middle line:90%
put an i everywhere else.

01:00:11.753 --> 01:00:13.170 align:middle line:84%
I'm just going to
call it i again.

01:00:13.170 --> 01:00:16.790 align:middle line:90%


01:00:16.790 --> 01:00:23.720 align:middle line:84%
So I've taken the electric field
strength and polarization--

01:00:23.720 --> 01:00:25.970 align:middle line:84%
I've now split up even
further into a term that's

01:00:25.970 --> 01:00:29.060 align:middle line:84%
the electric field strength
and its polarization.

01:00:29.060 --> 01:00:31.160 align:middle line:84%
You get the polarization
inside here.

01:00:31.160 --> 01:00:37.210 align:middle line:84%
I've taken out this
factor of Ei squared

01:00:37.210 --> 01:00:41.680 align:middle line:84%
because, when times that by c
epsilon 0, I can put all of that

01:00:41.680 --> 01:00:47.590 align:middle line:84%
together and write it instead as
the incident power of the laser

01:00:47.590 --> 01:00:49.880 align:middle line:90%
over the area of the laser.

01:00:49.880 --> 01:00:53.800 align:middle line:84%
So this is now an intensity in
watts per meter squared here.

01:00:53.800 --> 01:00:57.072 align:middle line:90%


01:00:57.072 --> 01:00:58.530 align:middle line:84%
And we often think
about our lasers

01:00:58.530 --> 01:00:59.700 align:middle line:90%
in terms of their intensity.

01:00:59.700 --> 01:01:01.170 align:middle line:90%
This is nice units.

01:01:01.170 --> 01:01:03.940 align:middle line:84%
And then, finally,
the interesting bit,

01:01:03.940 --> 01:01:10.105 align:middle line:84%
which is this 2 pi delta
K dot v minus omega.

01:01:10.105 --> 01:01:12.530 align:middle line:84%
So this is a scattering
from one particle.

01:01:12.530 --> 01:01:15.850 align:middle line:90%


01:01:15.850 --> 01:01:19.710 align:middle line:84%
And to be clear,
it's one electron.

01:01:19.710 --> 01:01:23.750 align:middle line:84%
So, again, nothing
particularly new

01:01:23.750 --> 01:01:27.120 align:middle line:84%
here but just now
in frequency space.

01:01:27.120 --> 01:01:36.110 align:middle line:84%
So now we want to integrate
over some distribution function

01:01:36.110 --> 01:01:40.800 align:middle line:90%
f of v d3v d3r.

01:01:40.800 --> 01:01:43.190 align:middle line:84%
And remember, when we have
a distribution function,

01:01:43.190 --> 01:01:46.760 align:middle line:84%
we say that the density
is the integral of f

01:01:46.760 --> 01:01:51.060 align:middle line:90%
of v over velocity space here.

01:01:51.060 --> 01:01:53.150 align:middle line:84%
So this is the
density as a function

01:01:53.150 --> 01:01:57.942 align:middle line:84%
of r-- the zeroth moment of
the distribution function.

01:01:57.942 --> 01:01:59.400 align:middle line:84%
What we're going
to end up doing is

01:01:59.400 --> 01:02:01.950 align:middle line:84%
we're going to be
integrating this f

01:02:01.950 --> 01:02:12.970 align:middle line:84%
of v times this delta function
K dot v minus omega d3v.

01:02:12.970 --> 01:02:15.640 align:middle line:84%
When we do that integral,
this delta function

01:02:15.640 --> 01:02:19.660 align:middle line:84%
is going to pick out certain
things about this velocity

01:02:19.660 --> 01:02:20.650 align:middle line:90%
distribution.

01:02:20.650 --> 01:02:23.470 align:middle line:84%
It's only going to
pick out particles

01:02:23.470 --> 01:02:27.280 align:middle line:84%
which have a velocity
which is equal to omega/K

01:02:27.280 --> 01:02:28.990 align:middle line:84%
and it's only going
to pick out particles

01:02:28.990 --> 01:02:32.380 align:middle line:84%
which have a component
of velocity parallel

01:02:32.380 --> 01:02:39.070 align:middle line:84%
to K. That's the v
dot K part as well.

01:02:39.070 --> 01:02:43.380 align:middle line:84%
So when we do this integral, we
end up with a scattered power

01:02:43.380 --> 01:02:45.580 align:middle line:90%
spectrum that looks like--

01:02:45.580 --> 01:02:48.010 align:middle line:84%
scattered power, again,
into some solid angle--

01:02:48.010 --> 01:02:58.910 align:middle line:84%
some frequency-- is equal to
2 pi r e squared, intensity

01:02:58.910 --> 01:03:02.730 align:middle line:84%
of the laser beam,
a factor which

01:03:02.730 --> 01:03:05.940 align:middle line:84%
accounts for where the
scattering light goes

01:03:05.940 --> 01:03:08.190 align:middle line:84%
to, and then the
interesting bit.

01:03:08.190 --> 01:03:11.963 align:middle line:90%
And the interesting bit is--

01:03:11.963 --> 01:03:14.130 align:middle line:84%
as opposed to having the
full distribution function,

01:03:14.130 --> 01:03:16.100 align:middle line:84%
we now have a
distribution function

01:03:16.100 --> 01:03:23.170 align:middle line:90%
f sub K evaluated at omega/K.

01:03:23.170 --> 01:03:27.620 align:middle line:84%
And then there's also a factor
of 1/K out the front here.

01:03:27.620 --> 01:03:30.070 align:middle line:84%
So let me unpack some
of these bits here.

01:03:30.070 --> 01:03:32.390 align:middle line:90%
This f of K--

01:03:32.390 --> 01:03:37.440 align:middle line:84%
imagine we have some
full distribution

01:03:37.440 --> 01:03:41.400 align:middle line:84%
function in three
dimensions where

01:03:41.400 --> 01:03:46.655 align:middle line:84%
we have some coordinate
that is perpendicular to K

01:03:46.655 --> 01:03:51.680 align:middle line:84%
and we have some coordinate,
which is along K.

01:03:51.680 --> 01:03:58.090 align:middle line:84%
And what we're doing is the
integral of this function,

01:03:58.090 --> 01:04:01.130 align:middle line:84%
integrating over all the
perpendicular velocities.

01:04:01.130 --> 01:04:05.032 align:middle line:84%
So our f of K is simply
a one-dimensional slice

01:04:05.032 --> 01:04:06.490 align:middle line:84%
through that
distribution function.

01:04:06.490 --> 01:04:07.450 align:middle line:90%
You can think of--

01:04:07.450 --> 01:04:09.490 align:middle line:90%
maybe, for example, in--

01:04:09.490 --> 01:04:11.980 align:middle line:84%
just in two dimensions
here, we could

01:04:11.980 --> 01:04:16.480 align:middle line:84%
have the K direction and the
perpendicular to K direction.

01:04:16.480 --> 01:04:19.390 align:middle line:84%
And our distribution
function could look like--

01:04:19.390 --> 01:04:22.970 align:middle line:84%
and I'm drawing
contours of f here.

01:04:22.970 --> 01:04:29.770 align:middle line:84%
So, for example, this is f
equals 1, 2, 3 type thing.

01:04:29.770 --> 01:04:31.272 align:middle line:84%
These can be much
bigger numbers,

01:04:31.272 --> 01:04:33.730 align:middle line:84%
but this is just to give you
an idea of some function which

01:04:33.730 --> 01:04:35.560 align:middle line:84%
is peaked around
about the center here,

01:04:35.560 --> 01:04:37.120 align:middle line:90%
but it's not isotropic.

01:04:37.120 --> 01:04:39.970 align:middle line:84%
And what our Thomson
scattering is picking up

01:04:39.970 --> 01:04:45.170 align:middle line:84%
is just a slice through in one
direction of that distribution

01:04:45.170 --> 01:04:46.040 align:middle line:90%
function here.

01:04:46.040 --> 01:04:49.700 align:middle line:84%
So if I take this cut, I get
out the distribution function

01:04:49.700 --> 01:04:54.880 align:middle line:84%
that looks like
f of K versus vK,

01:04:54.880 --> 01:04:59.421 align:middle line:90%
and maybe it looks like this.

01:04:59.421 --> 01:05:02.590 align:middle line:84%
So I'm only sensitive
to one-- if a particle's

01:05:02.590 --> 01:05:07.350 align:middle line:84%
moving in one direction--
in the K direction here.

01:05:07.350 --> 01:05:09.920 align:middle line:84%
And this 1/K-- if you're
wondering where that comes from,

01:05:09.920 --> 01:05:17.240 align:middle line:84%
this is because dv is
equal to d omega upon K.

01:05:17.240 --> 01:05:20.000 align:middle line:84%
So when I change this integral
from being in terms of velocity

01:05:20.000 --> 01:05:22.280 align:middle line:84%
space to being in terms
of frequency space,

01:05:22.280 --> 01:05:25.650 align:middle line:84%
I'm going to get out
this factor of 1/K here.

01:05:25.650 --> 01:05:30.020 align:middle line:90%
So why did I write all of that?

01:05:30.020 --> 01:05:31.110 align:middle line:90%
No, this is right.

01:05:31.110 --> 01:05:32.680 align:middle line:90%
I don't need anything else.

01:05:32.680 --> 01:05:38.310 align:middle line:84%
So, just to be clear, this is
a 1D distribution function.

01:05:38.310 --> 01:05:42.880 align:middle line:90%


01:05:42.880 --> 01:05:45.760 align:middle line:84%
Now, if your system
is isotropic,

01:05:45.760 --> 01:05:47.540 align:middle line:84%
this doesn't bother
you at all because you

01:05:47.540 --> 01:05:49.457 align:middle line:84%
can-- if you think there's
lots of collisions,

01:05:49.457 --> 01:05:51.910 align:middle line:84%
there's no magnetic fields,
my distribution is isotropic,

01:05:51.910 --> 01:05:54.243 align:middle line:84%
then I can just make one
measurement of the distribution

01:05:54.243 --> 01:05:56.510 align:middle line:84%
function in one direction,
and I've got all I need.

01:05:56.510 --> 01:05:58.690 align:middle line:84%
But if your distribution
function is anisotropic

01:05:58.690 --> 01:06:01.030 align:middle line:84%
because there's magnetic
fields or electric fields,

01:06:01.030 --> 01:06:03.757 align:middle line:84%
then you won't be able to
pick up the full distribution

01:06:03.757 --> 01:06:04.840 align:middle line:90%
with just one measurement.

01:06:04.840 --> 01:06:07.430 align:middle line:84%
You'll need lots and lots
of different measurements.

01:06:07.430 --> 01:06:12.340 align:middle line:84%
For example, you'll need another
K like this and another K

01:06:12.340 --> 01:06:13.900 align:middle line:90%
like this.

01:06:13.900 --> 01:06:17.575 align:middle line:84%
And you can effectively do
a tomographic reconstruction

01:06:17.575 --> 01:06:21.220 align:middle line:84%
in velocity space by taking
lots of different slices

01:06:21.220 --> 01:06:22.360 align:middle line:90%
at different angles here.

01:06:22.360 --> 01:06:25.690 align:middle line:90%


01:06:25.690 --> 01:06:27.797 align:middle line:84%
I will just deal with a
few consequences of this,

01:06:27.797 --> 01:06:29.214 align:middle line:84%
and then I'll take
some questions.

01:06:29.214 --> 01:06:52.970 align:middle line:90%


01:06:52.970 --> 01:06:54.490 align:middle line:90%
So our scattered spectrum--

01:06:54.490 --> 01:07:00.767 align:middle line:90%


01:07:00.767 --> 01:07:03.100 align:middle line:84%
which, again, we've been
writing this scattered spectrum

01:07:03.100 --> 01:07:10.287 align:middle line:84%
in our differential notation
as d2P d omega d nu.

01:07:10.287 --> 01:07:12.870 align:middle line:84%
But every time you see this, you
think, that's what I measure.

01:07:12.870 --> 01:07:16.020 align:middle line:84%
I am measuring some power into
some solid angle represented

01:07:16.020 --> 01:07:18.000 align:middle line:84%
by my spectrometer,
and I'm measuring it

01:07:18.000 --> 01:07:19.810 align:middle line:90%
resolved in terms of frequency.

01:07:19.810 --> 01:07:22.100 align:middle line:90%
This is what I measure here.

01:07:22.100 --> 01:07:29.570 align:middle line:84%
This measures-- if I
can spell "measures"--

01:07:29.570 --> 01:07:33.710 align:middle line:90%


01:07:33.710 --> 01:07:38.540 align:middle line:84%
the distribution
function f of v parallel

01:07:38.540 --> 01:07:42.600 align:middle line:84%
to that K scattering
vector here.

01:07:42.600 --> 01:07:49.210 align:middle line:90%
And so, if I have multiple Ks--

01:07:49.210 --> 01:07:52.390 align:middle line:90%
I have multiple K--

01:07:52.390 --> 01:07:55.220 align:middle line:84%
I get f of v for
multiple directions.

01:07:55.220 --> 01:07:58.810 align:middle line:84%
So, again, I have
a plasma like this.

01:07:58.810 --> 01:08:04.480 align:middle line:84%
I put my scattered
light through here.

01:08:04.480 --> 01:08:07.000 align:middle line:90%
This is my laser beam.

01:08:07.000 --> 01:08:10.720 align:middle line:90%
It's got some Ki like that.

01:08:10.720 --> 01:08:13.480 align:middle line:84%
And then I measure the
scattering, for example,

01:08:13.480 --> 01:08:16.010 align:middle line:90%
in this direction.

01:08:16.010 --> 01:08:16.864 align:middle line:90%
We'll call that Ks1.

01:08:16.864 --> 01:08:20.160 align:middle line:90%


01:08:20.160 --> 01:08:29.069 align:middle line:84%
Then my K1-- remember, K
is equal to Ks minus Ki--

01:08:29.069 --> 01:08:34.319 align:middle line:84%
is equal to Ks
minus Ki like that.

01:08:34.319 --> 01:08:39.600 align:middle line:84%
So I measure scattering
along this K1.

01:08:39.600 --> 01:08:42.689 align:middle line:84%
If I measure instead
at 90 degrees--

01:08:42.689 --> 01:08:44.835 align:middle line:84%
sorry, 180 degrees to
that-- this is Ks2.

01:08:44.835 --> 01:08:47.520 align:middle line:90%


01:08:47.520 --> 01:08:50.759 align:middle line:90%
Then I go Ks minus Ki.

01:08:50.759 --> 01:08:51.660 align:middle line:90%
I end up there.

01:08:51.660 --> 01:08:56.560 align:middle line:90%


01:08:56.560 --> 01:08:58.729 align:middle line:84%
This will be measuring
direction K2.

01:08:58.729 --> 01:09:01.279 align:middle line:84%
And these two will be
measuring different cuts

01:09:01.279 --> 01:09:03.486 align:middle line:84%
through our velocity
distribution.

01:09:03.486 --> 01:09:05.569 align:middle line:84%
So if it was anisotropic,
they could be different.

01:09:05.569 --> 01:09:09.000 align:middle line:84%
By the way, if these
are at 180 degrees,

01:09:09.000 --> 01:09:10.560 align:middle line:84%
these two should
be at 90 degrees.

01:09:10.560 --> 01:09:12.768 align:middle line:84%
They're not, because I'm
bad at drawing that diagram,

01:09:12.768 --> 01:09:16.090 align:middle line:90%
but that's where it should be.

01:09:16.090 --> 01:09:18.550 align:middle line:84%
So you could measure orthogonal
components of a velocity.

01:09:18.550 --> 01:09:20.620 align:middle line:84%
And, of course, if it's
fully three dimensional,

01:09:20.620 --> 01:09:23.109 align:middle line:84%
you might want to scatter
out of the page here.

01:09:23.109 --> 01:09:25.390 align:middle line:84%
And then you would
measure some scattering K

01:09:25.390 --> 01:09:27.229 align:middle line:90%
that's also out of the page.

01:09:27.229 --> 01:09:30.069 align:middle line:84%
So if you have these
multiple lines of sight,

01:09:30.069 --> 01:09:41.309 align:middle line:84%
you can reconstruct your
three-dimensional f of v.

01:09:41.309 --> 01:09:42.684 align:middle line:84%
The other cool
thing about this--

01:09:42.684 --> 01:09:45.399 align:middle line:90%


01:09:45.399 --> 01:09:55.890 align:middle line:84%
is you might be able to measure
non-Maxwellian distributions,

01:09:55.890 --> 01:09:57.100 align:middle line:90%
even in one dimension.

01:09:57.100 --> 01:10:00.220 align:middle line:84%
So if I just write it as f
of v without the vector--

01:10:00.220 --> 01:10:03.870 align:middle line:84%
so we're thinking about this
one-dimensional cut here--

01:10:03.870 --> 01:10:17.420 align:middle line:84%
if we look at our spectrum
nu, and this is dP d omega--

01:10:17.420 --> 01:10:22.650 align:middle line:84%
our scattered light-- if we
look at this on a log scale,

01:10:22.650 --> 01:10:30.210 align:middle line:84%
then this dP d omega
is just about log of f.

01:10:30.210 --> 01:10:33.600 align:middle line:84%
On a log scale
here, our Maxwellian

01:10:33.600 --> 01:10:37.320 align:middle line:90%
would just look like a parabola.

01:10:37.320 --> 01:10:46.150 align:middle line:84%
It would go as minus v squared,
which is minus nu squared,

01:10:46.150 --> 01:10:46.820 align:middle line:90%
like that.

01:10:46.820 --> 01:10:48.730 align:middle line:84%
So if we had a
Maxwellian distribution,

01:10:48.730 --> 01:10:51.440 align:middle line:84%
we'd expect just to see
a spectrum like this.

01:10:51.440 --> 01:10:53.320 align:middle line:84%
But if we have a
non-Maxwellian distribution,

01:10:53.320 --> 01:10:56.240 align:middle line:84%
perhaps we've got scale, some
tails coming out of the side

01:10:56.240 --> 01:10:56.740 align:middle line:90%
here.

01:10:56.740 --> 01:11:02.890 align:middle line:90%


01:11:02.890 --> 01:11:05.550 align:middle line:84%
And so, in principle, using
this incoherent scattering,

01:11:05.550 --> 01:11:07.650 align:middle line:84%
because we measure the
full distribution function,

01:11:07.650 --> 01:11:09.420 align:middle line:84%
if that distribution
is not Maxwellian,

01:11:09.420 --> 01:11:12.510 align:middle line:84%
we might be able to measure
non-Maxwellian tails out here.

01:11:12.510 --> 01:11:16.740 align:middle line:84%
Now, in general, these
tails are weak scattering.

01:11:16.740 --> 01:11:21.677 align:middle line:84%
There's not very many
particles out in the tails.

01:11:21.677 --> 01:11:24.010 align:middle line:84%
It's hard to make plasmas
which are very non-Maxwellian.

01:11:24.010 --> 01:11:27.430 align:middle line:84%
So it can be very, very
hard to measure this.

01:11:27.430 --> 01:11:30.820 align:middle line:84%
But if you are able to repeat
your experiment lots of times

01:11:30.820 --> 01:11:32.890 align:middle line:84%
and build up your
signal like they

01:11:32.890 --> 01:11:34.955 align:middle line:84%
did in these low-temperature
plasma experiments,

01:11:34.955 --> 01:11:36.580 align:middle line:84%
you may be able to
measure the presence

01:11:36.580 --> 01:11:39.160 align:middle line:84%
of fast electrons--
non-Maxwellian electrons

01:11:39.160 --> 01:11:39.730 align:middle line:90%
out here.

01:11:39.730 --> 01:11:43.150 align:middle line:84%
So this is two very cool
uses for incoherent Thomson

01:11:43.150 --> 01:11:44.830 align:middle line:90%
scattering.

01:11:44.830 --> 01:11:46.672 align:middle line:84%
I will pause there
and take questions.

01:11:46.672 --> 01:11:49.968 align:middle line:90%


01:11:49.968 --> 01:11:52.010 align:middle line:84%
Maybe I'll put this back
down so you can see what

01:11:52.010 --> 01:11:53.218 align:middle line:90%
we were talking about before.

01:11:53.218 --> 01:12:26.990 align:middle line:90%


01:12:26.990 --> 01:12:27.900 align:middle line:90%
Any questions online?

01:12:27.900 --> 01:12:31.765 align:middle line:90%


01:12:31.765 --> 01:12:32.265 align:middle line:90%
Yeah?

01:12:32.265 --> 01:12:39.160 align:middle line:90%


01:12:39.160 --> 01:12:42.010 align:middle line:84%
Yeah, so we saw that the
scattering cross-section was

01:12:42.010 --> 01:12:43.225 align:middle line:90%
like--

01:12:43.225 --> 01:12:46.210 align:middle line:84%
you expect 10 to the minus 8
of your particles-- photons--

01:12:46.210 --> 01:12:46.840 align:middle line:90%
to scatter.

01:12:46.840 --> 01:12:48.632 align:middle line:84%
So the chance of it
getting scattered twice

01:12:48.632 --> 01:12:50.930 align:middle line:84%
would be 10 to the minus
16, which is very unlikely.

01:12:50.930 --> 01:12:52.105 align:middle line:84%
So we don't worry about
double scattering.

01:12:52.105 --> 01:12:54.438 align:middle line:84%
I guess I could have put that
on my list of assumptions,

01:12:54.438 --> 01:12:55.035 align:middle line:90%
but yeah.

01:12:55.035 --> 01:12:56.785 align:middle line:84%
So we don't worry about
double scattering.

01:12:56.785 --> 01:13:01.770 align:middle line:90%


01:13:01.770 --> 01:13:04.110 align:middle line:84%
Just one quick note-- a
relativistic correction,

01:13:04.110 --> 01:13:05.520 align:middle line:90%
because if you--

01:13:05.520 --> 01:13:08.432 align:middle line:84%
generally, in tokamaks, they
do incoherent scattering

01:13:08.432 --> 01:13:10.890 align:middle line:84%
because it's very hard to get
into the alpha greater than 1

01:13:10.890 --> 01:13:12.750 align:middle line:90%
coherent scattering regime.

01:13:12.750 --> 01:13:15.360 align:middle line:84%
And in tokamaks-- if you've
got a nice hot tokamak,

01:13:15.360 --> 01:13:17.190 align:middle line:84%
you may well have a
relativistic plasma.

01:13:17.190 --> 01:13:21.450 align:middle line:84%
So just a quick note here on
what the relativistic correction

01:13:21.450 --> 01:13:22.140 align:middle line:90%
looks like.

01:13:22.140 --> 01:13:31.590 align:middle line:90%


01:13:31.590 --> 01:13:33.410 align:middle line:84%
First of all,
remember, you may need

01:13:33.410 --> 01:13:36.080 align:middle line:84%
to think about
relativistic beaming.

01:13:36.080 --> 01:13:42.400 align:middle line:84%
So this is where the radiation
pattern of your scattered light

01:13:42.400 --> 01:13:43.720 align:middle line:90%
beams forward.

01:13:43.720 --> 01:13:46.390 align:middle line:84%
This is v/c much,
much less than 1,

01:13:46.390 --> 01:13:50.862 align:middle line:84%
and this is maybe v/c less
than or around about 1.

01:13:50.862 --> 01:13:52.570 align:middle line:84%
So, first of all, you
might want to think

01:13:52.570 --> 01:13:54.310 align:middle line:90%
about this relativistic beaming.

01:13:54.310 --> 01:13:57.060 align:middle line:84%
But the other thing you
might want to think about

01:13:57.060 --> 01:13:58.830 align:middle line:84%
is, how does this
affect your spectrum?

01:13:58.830 --> 01:14:00.930 align:middle line:84%
Well, there's a long
derivation of this,

01:14:00.930 --> 01:14:02.470 align:middle line:84%
but there's a short
version of it,

01:14:02.470 --> 01:14:04.620 align:middle line:84%
which is that your
spectrum-- which, again,

01:14:04.620 --> 01:14:11.030 align:middle line:84%
we're writing as d2P
d capital omega d nu--

01:14:11.030 --> 01:14:14.840 align:middle line:84%
the relativistic
version looks a lot

01:14:14.840 --> 01:14:17.880 align:middle line:84%
like your
non-relativistic version,

01:14:17.880 --> 01:14:21.050 align:middle line:84%
which we have written several
times over on the side here.

01:14:21.050 --> 01:14:24.150 align:middle line:90%


01:14:24.150 --> 01:14:26.060 align:middle line:84%
But it has a correction
factor to it,

01:14:26.060 --> 01:14:33.580 align:middle line:84%
and that correction is 1
plus 3 omega upon 2 omega i.

01:14:33.580 --> 01:14:39.090 align:middle line:90%


01:14:39.090 --> 01:14:43.230 align:middle line:84%
This means that the whole
spectrum gets shifted up.

01:14:43.230 --> 01:14:46.430 align:middle line:84%
Remember that omega
here is equal to K dot

01:14:46.430 --> 01:14:49.140 align:middle line:84%
v. If you're wondering
why this is relativistic,

01:14:49.140 --> 01:14:51.160 align:middle line:90%
that's where the v is coming in.

01:14:51.160 --> 01:14:54.780 align:middle line:84%
So this is a correction
on the order of--

01:14:54.780 --> 01:15:01.110 align:middle line:84%
and this omega i, by
the way, is just cK.

01:15:01.110 --> 01:15:04.920 align:middle line:84%
And so this correction here
is on the order of v/c.

01:15:04.920 --> 01:15:06.420 align:middle line:84%
These are the ones
we said we'd keep

01:15:06.420 --> 01:15:08.960 align:middle line:90%
for our relativistic correction.

01:15:08.960 --> 01:15:13.410 align:middle line:84%
What this correction means
is that we get a blueshift.

01:15:13.410 --> 01:15:16.230 align:middle line:84%
So the spectrum is
always blueshifted--

01:15:16.230 --> 01:15:18.420 align:middle line:84%
always ends up as being
at a higher frequency.

01:15:18.420 --> 01:15:20.730 align:middle line:84%
You can see that by the
shape of this and the fact

01:15:20.730 --> 01:15:25.000 align:middle line:84%
that it depends on the
sign of omega here.

01:15:25.000 --> 01:15:32.620 align:middle line:84%
And, in particular, this
correction is for temperatures--

01:15:32.620 --> 01:15:35.148 align:middle line:84%
electron temperatures-- on
the order of the keV range.

01:15:35.148 --> 01:15:36.940 align:middle line:84%
So if you're working
below that, you really

01:15:36.940 --> 01:15:38.350 align:middle line:90%
don't need this correction.

01:15:38.350 --> 01:15:41.590 align:middle line:84%
But if you're working
in a 10 keV plasma,

01:15:41.590 --> 01:15:43.750 align:middle line:90%
you do need this correction.

01:15:43.750 --> 01:15:50.030 align:middle line:84%
Because of this blueshift,
it's important to measure

01:15:50.030 --> 01:15:53.150 align:middle line:84%
both the positive
shifted frequencies

01:15:53.150 --> 01:15:55.130 align:middle line:84%
and the negative
shifted frequencies.

01:15:55.130 --> 01:15:56.660 align:middle line:84%
Because if you
don't measure those,

01:15:56.660 --> 01:16:00.440 align:middle line:84%
then you're expecting your
spectrum for a Maxwellian

01:16:00.440 --> 01:16:02.980 align:middle line:90%
to be nice and symmetric.

01:16:02.980 --> 01:16:05.830 align:middle line:84%
But if you are doing
the relativistic one,

01:16:05.830 --> 01:16:08.530 align:middle line:84%
then your spectrum
might look like this.

01:16:08.530 --> 01:16:15.710 align:middle line:90%


01:16:15.710 --> 01:16:18.490 align:middle line:84%
And if you only measure
one half of your spectrum--

01:16:18.490 --> 01:16:21.340 align:middle line:84%
this is frequency-- we only
measure the positive frequencies

01:16:21.340 --> 01:16:23.830 align:middle line:84%
or negative frequencies--
we might misinterpret

01:16:23.830 --> 01:16:25.120 align:middle line:90%
what's going on here.

01:16:25.120 --> 01:16:29.160 align:middle line:84%
If you're starting to work
with relativistic plasmas,

01:16:29.160 --> 01:16:30.910 align:middle line:84%
you may be tempted
with your spectrometer,

01:16:30.910 --> 01:16:33.280 align:middle line:84%
because you only have a
finite number of frequencies

01:16:33.280 --> 01:16:34.930 align:middle line:84%
you can measure
at, to only measure

01:16:34.930 --> 01:16:37.030 align:middle line:84%
positive or negative frequencies
because the spectrum is

01:16:37.030 --> 01:16:37.530 align:middle line:90%
symmetric.

01:16:37.530 --> 01:16:40.210 align:middle line:84%
But in the relativistic
case, it's not.

01:16:40.210 --> 01:16:42.520 align:middle line:90%
This is like d2P.

01:16:42.520 --> 01:16:43.180 align:middle line:90%
OK.

01:16:43.180 --> 01:16:45.880 align:middle line:90%


01:16:45.880 --> 01:16:53.720 align:middle line:84%
And this is Hutchinson's
equation 7.2.28.

01:16:53.720 --> 01:16:55.610 align:middle line:84%
And he does the derivation
of this properly.

01:16:55.610 --> 01:17:02.290 align:middle line:84%
I am just giving you the
result. Any questions on that?

01:17:02.290 --> 01:17:03.280 align:middle line:90%
Just like a side note.

01:17:03.280 --> 01:17:09.020 align:middle line:90%


01:17:09.020 --> 01:17:12.520 align:middle line:84%
We have just enough time to
introduce coherent scattering,

01:17:12.520 --> 01:17:14.110 align:middle line:84%
but not enough
time to actually do

01:17:14.110 --> 01:17:16.460 align:middle line:84%
all the fun mathematics
of it, so we

01:17:16.460 --> 01:17:17.710 align:middle line:90%
will leave that for next week.

01:17:17.710 --> 01:17:44.268 align:middle line:90%


01:17:44.268 --> 01:17:46.130 align:middle line:84%
So that was
incoherent scattering.

01:17:46.130 --> 01:17:48.170 align:middle line:84%
We derived the scattering
off a single particle.

01:17:48.170 --> 01:17:50.480 align:middle line:84%
Then we integrated over
the distribution function

01:17:50.480 --> 01:17:52.910 align:middle line:84%
and said that the scattering
off each of these particles

01:17:52.910 --> 01:17:55.580 align:middle line:84%
does not interfere with
the scattering off any

01:17:55.580 --> 01:17:57.830 align:middle line:90%
of the other particles.

01:17:57.830 --> 01:18:00.440 align:middle line:84%
Or, if it does interfere,
another particle's scattering

01:18:00.440 --> 01:18:04.220 align:middle line:84%
will add up, and that
sum over the scattering

01:18:04.220 --> 01:18:07.750 align:middle line:84%
between different particles
will eventually cancel out.

01:18:07.750 --> 01:18:11.293 align:middle line:84%
That is not going to be the
case in coherent scattering.

01:18:11.293 --> 01:18:22.410 align:middle line:90%


01:18:22.410 --> 01:18:25.463 align:middle line:84%
So, again, we're just going
to sketch what's going on.

01:18:25.463 --> 01:18:26.880 align:middle line:84%
Before we go into
the mathematics,

01:18:26.880 --> 01:18:29.910 align:middle line:84%
I want you to have a heuristic
understanding of what's

01:18:29.910 --> 01:18:32.880 align:middle line:84%
happening first so that you
have some faith that, when

01:18:32.880 --> 01:18:35.850 align:middle line:84%
we wade through the math, it'll
all be worth it in the end.

01:18:35.850 --> 01:18:37.950 align:middle line:84%
So this is just a
simple sketch for you.

01:18:37.950 --> 01:18:43.080 align:middle line:84%
Again, we're talking about
scattering off fluctuations

01:18:43.080 --> 01:18:45.660 align:middle line:84%
which have a wavelength
lambda, and that lambda

01:18:45.660 --> 01:18:49.610 align:middle line:84%
is greater than the
Debye length here.

01:18:49.610 --> 01:18:52.750 align:middle line:84%
So these must be
coherent fluctuations

01:18:52.750 --> 01:18:55.090 align:middle line:84%
because we can no longer
see individual particles.

01:18:55.090 --> 01:18:57.130 align:middle line:84%
We can only see
particles that are Debye

01:18:57.130 --> 01:18:58.720 align:middle line:90%
shielding other particles.

01:18:58.720 --> 01:19:01.570 align:middle line:84%
And so these particles
must be moving in concert

01:19:01.570 --> 01:19:02.710 align:middle line:90%
with the other particles.

01:19:02.710 --> 01:19:08.166 align:middle line:90%


01:19:08.166 --> 01:19:10.450 align:middle line:84%
And just a note--
as we said before,

01:19:10.450 --> 01:19:15.440 align:middle line:84%
this is the condition that
alpha is greater than 1.

01:19:15.440 --> 01:19:19.580 align:middle line:84%
The coherent fluctuations
are modes or waves.

01:19:19.580 --> 01:19:20.735 align:middle line:90%
I'll use both words.

01:19:20.735 --> 01:19:24.710 align:middle line:90%


01:19:24.710 --> 01:19:28.660 align:middle line:84%
So let's consider what
sort of modes and waves

01:19:28.660 --> 01:19:31.000 align:middle line:84%
there are in a plasma
that we can scatter off.

01:19:31.000 --> 01:19:37.430 align:middle line:84%
So we consider modes
with frequency omega,

01:19:37.430 --> 01:19:44.700 align:middle line:84%
which is equal to, as we keep
saying, omega s minus omega i.

01:19:44.700 --> 01:19:47.040 align:middle line:84%
We're dealing with the
difference between these two

01:19:47.040 --> 01:19:47.970 align:middle line:90%
frequencies.

01:19:47.970 --> 01:19:51.840 align:middle line:84%
And, again, we're
looking at Doppler shifts

01:19:51.840 --> 01:19:56.400 align:middle line:84%
which are on the
order of K dot v.

01:19:56.400 --> 01:19:59.980 align:middle line:84%
And so this is going to be
a relatively small quantity.

01:19:59.980 --> 01:20:02.550 align:middle line:90%
So this omega s minus omega i--

01:20:02.550 --> 01:20:05.250 align:middle line:84%
our omega is much going
to be much, much less

01:20:05.250 --> 01:20:09.770 align:middle line:84%
than omega i, which is
basically the same as omega s.

01:20:09.770 --> 01:20:14.070 align:middle line:84%
So we're looking for modes with
a relatively low frequency--

01:20:14.070 --> 01:20:16.620 align:middle line:84%
much lower than
the sorts of waves

01:20:16.620 --> 01:20:20.160 align:middle line:84%
that we see propagating in
free space, like our laser.

01:20:20.160 --> 01:20:23.890 align:middle line:90%


01:20:23.890 --> 01:20:26.740 align:middle line:84%
But, despite the fact that
these modes are low frequency,

01:20:26.740 --> 01:20:29.680 align:middle line:84%
they may not actually
have a low wave number.

01:20:29.680 --> 01:20:32.620 align:middle line:84%
Because, remember, our
scattering diagram--

01:20:32.620 --> 01:20:37.140 align:middle line:84%
we have some incoming
wave, we measure it

01:20:37.140 --> 01:20:40.620 align:middle line:84%
in some scattering
direction Ks like this,

01:20:40.620 --> 01:20:42.870 align:middle line:84%
and we said, because this
is elastic scattering,

01:20:42.870 --> 01:20:49.707 align:middle line:84%
that the size of Ks is roughly
the same as the size of Ki.

01:20:49.707 --> 01:20:52.290 align:middle line:84%
They didn't have to be pointing
in the same direction, though.

01:20:52.290 --> 01:20:59.920 align:middle line:84%
And so that means that K,
which is equal to Ks minus Ki--

01:20:59.920 --> 01:21:09.065 align:middle line:84%
again, we just look at this and
do this as a vector Ks minus Ki

01:21:09.065 --> 01:21:09.565 align:middle line:90%
like this.

01:21:09.565 --> 01:21:12.490 align:middle line:90%


01:21:12.490 --> 01:21:18.840 align:middle line:84%
And so the size of K is actually
on the order of the size of Ks

01:21:18.840 --> 01:21:21.007 align:middle line:90%
or the size of Ki.

01:21:21.007 --> 01:21:22.590 align:middle line:84%
So, although the
frequency of the mode

01:21:22.590 --> 01:21:25.500 align:middle line:84%
is much lower than the
frequency of a free space

01:21:25.500 --> 01:21:28.200 align:middle line:84%
propagating plane
wave, the momentum,

01:21:28.200 --> 01:21:31.050 align:middle line:84%
or the wave number of the
mode, is roughly the same here.

01:21:31.050 --> 01:21:38.345 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

01:21:38.345 --> 01:21:39.720 align:middle line:84%
JACK HARE: Nothing
I've done here

01:21:39.720 --> 01:21:41.784 align:middle line:84%
actually is talking about
the Debye length yet.

01:21:41.784 --> 01:21:51.188 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

01:21:51.188 --> 01:21:53.480 align:middle line:84%
JACK HARE: Yes, though, again,
none of this mathematics

01:21:53.480 --> 01:21:55.110 align:middle line:84%
so far has said
anything about that.

01:21:55.110 --> 01:21:58.250 align:middle line:84%
We're just-- what
all of this means

01:21:58.250 --> 01:22:03.290 align:middle line:84%
together is-- we're looking for
a mode, which has v phase which

01:22:03.290 --> 01:22:07.730 align:middle line:84%
is equal to omega/K.
We know that this omega

01:22:07.730 --> 01:22:13.310 align:middle line:84%
is much, much less than omega
i, which is equal to CKi.

01:22:13.310 --> 01:22:18.620 align:middle line:84%
But we know that this K
is on the order of Ki.

01:22:18.620 --> 01:22:21.170 align:middle line:84%
So if we take the
ratio of omega and K,

01:22:21.170 --> 01:22:23.930 align:middle line:84%
we can see that this
will be much, much less

01:22:23.930 --> 01:22:27.682 align:middle line:84%
than the speed of light,
which is-- actually,

01:22:27.682 --> 01:22:30.140 align:middle line:84%
this would be the same if I
replaced this with the electron

01:22:30.140 --> 01:22:32.450 align:middle line:84%
velocity here, if I was
doing incoherent scattering

01:22:32.450 --> 01:22:33.680 align:middle line:90%
of individual electrons.

01:22:33.680 --> 01:22:36.180 align:middle line:84%
But this same condition
now holds here.

01:22:36.180 --> 01:22:39.410 align:middle line:84%
So what we need to do
is we need to identify--

01:22:39.410 --> 01:22:42.440 align:middle line:90%


01:22:42.440 --> 01:22:52.490 align:middle line:84%
find modes with-- so
what modes are there

01:22:52.490 --> 01:22:54.110 align:middle line:90%
in a plasma that satisfy this?

01:22:54.110 --> 01:22:57.200 align:middle line:84%
They've got a low phase velocity
compared to the speed of light.

01:22:57.200 --> 01:22:59.580 align:middle line:84%
They have relatively
low frequencies,

01:22:59.580 --> 01:23:00.815 align:middle line:90%
but they have high momentum.

01:23:00.815 --> 01:23:04.476 align:middle line:90%


01:23:04.476 --> 01:23:07.130 align:middle line:84%
We're not dealing with
any magnetic fields here.

01:23:07.130 --> 01:23:11.480 align:middle line:84%
So we're not going to scatter
off alpha [INAUDIBLE].

01:23:11.480 --> 01:23:12.410 align:middle line:90%
Sound waves?

01:23:12.410 --> 01:23:15.650 align:middle line:84%
What is-- and can you give me
a posh name for a sound wave?

01:23:15.650 --> 01:23:18.590 align:middle line:90%


01:23:18.590 --> 01:23:19.910 align:middle line:90%
An acoustic wave.

01:23:19.910 --> 01:23:20.435 align:middle line:90%
There we go.

01:23:20.435 --> 01:23:24.167 align:middle line:90%


01:23:24.167 --> 01:23:25.750 align:middle line:84%
So what is the
dispersion relationship

01:23:25.750 --> 01:23:27.100 align:middle line:90%
for an ion acoustic wave?

01:23:27.100 --> 01:23:35.080 align:middle line:90%


01:23:35.080 --> 01:23:38.690 align:middle line:84%
I'm just going to take
the square root there.

01:23:38.690 --> 01:23:41.030 align:middle line:90%
And what is cs?

01:23:41.030 --> 01:23:47.157 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

01:23:47.157 --> 01:23:47.865 align:middle line:90%
JACK HARE: Right.

01:23:47.865 --> 01:23:50.670 align:middle line:84%
Well, we're working in a plasma
that can be multiply ionized.

01:23:50.670 --> 01:23:52.900 align:middle line:84%
So I'm going to put a z
in there-- z in there--

01:23:52.900 --> 01:24:00.070 align:middle line:84%
and it turns out, in reality,
it's z t e over t i over M i.

01:24:00.070 --> 01:24:04.695 align:middle line:84%
Is this a wave which has low
frequency and high momentum,

01:24:04.695 --> 01:24:06.070 align:middle line:84%
which is the same
as saying, does

01:24:06.070 --> 01:24:08.528 align:middle line:84%
it have a phase velocity much
less than the speed of light?

01:24:08.528 --> 01:24:12.240 align:middle line:90%


01:24:12.240 --> 01:24:15.880 align:middle line:90%
What's its phase velocity?

01:24:15.880 --> 01:24:18.282 align:middle line:90%
This isn't a trick question.

01:24:18.282 --> 01:24:19.845 align:middle line:90%
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

01:24:19.845 --> 01:24:20.470 align:middle line:90%
JACK HARE: Why?

01:24:20.470 --> 01:24:25.770 align:middle line:90%


01:24:25.770 --> 01:24:26.270 align:middle line:90%
OK.

01:24:26.270 --> 01:24:30.650 align:middle line:84%
[CHUCKLES] So the phase velocity
of it is just the sound speed.

01:24:30.650 --> 01:24:32.570 align:middle line:84%
And that sound speed is
going to be much less

01:24:32.570 --> 01:24:34.130 align:middle line:90%
than the speed of light.

01:24:34.130 --> 01:24:36.410 align:middle line:84%
And, yes, maybe it is
because ions are slow.

01:24:36.410 --> 01:24:39.032 align:middle line:84%
So you'll need, effectively--
this is a relatively heavy mass.

01:24:39.032 --> 01:24:40.490 align:middle line:84%
You calculate this,
and this number

01:24:40.490 --> 01:24:42.247 align:middle line:84%
is going to be
like 10 kilometers

01:24:42.247 --> 01:24:43.580 align:middle line:90%
a second or something like that.

01:24:43.580 --> 01:24:45.997 align:middle line:84%
It's going to be much, much
less than 3 times 10 to the 8.

01:24:45.997 --> 01:24:47.210 align:middle line:90%
So these are great modes.

01:24:47.210 --> 01:24:49.730 align:middle line:84%
We can definitely
scatter off these modes.

01:24:49.730 --> 01:24:52.520 align:middle line:84%
These are actually very
low frequency modes.

01:24:52.520 --> 01:24:56.640 align:middle line:84%
These are the lowest
frequency modes in a plasma.

01:24:56.640 --> 01:25:00.680 align:middle line:90%
What's a slightly faster wave?

01:25:00.680 --> 01:25:02.453 align:middle line:90%
Yes?

01:25:02.453 --> 01:25:03.120 align:middle line:90%
You're cheating.

01:25:03.120 --> 01:25:04.470 align:middle line:90%
You've done this before, OK.

01:25:04.470 --> 01:25:07.110 align:middle line:90%
[CHUCKLES] Go on--

01:25:07.110 --> 01:25:08.070 align:middle line:90%
Langmuir waves.

01:25:08.070 --> 01:25:11.770 align:middle line:84%
I'm going to call these
electron plasma waves,

01:25:11.770 --> 01:25:14.305 align:middle line:84%
but they are sometimes
named after Langmuir.

01:25:14.305 --> 01:25:18.920 align:middle line:90%


01:25:18.920 --> 01:25:20.900 align:middle line:84%
So what is the
dispersion relationship

01:25:20.900 --> 01:25:21.740 align:middle line:90%
for a Langmuir wave?

01:25:21.740 --> 01:25:41.120 align:middle line:90%


01:25:41.120 --> 01:25:44.000 align:middle line:84%
And we could go and work out
the phase velocity for these.

01:25:44.000 --> 01:25:46.080 align:middle line:84%
It's a little bit
more difficult.

01:25:46.080 --> 01:25:49.680 align:middle line:84%
But we'll find out that these
do have a low phase velocity,

01:25:49.680 --> 01:25:52.100 align:middle line:84%
but it's not quite as low
as the ion acoustic waves.

01:25:52.100 --> 01:25:55.440 align:middle line:84%
So these are just the
low frequency waves.

01:25:55.440 --> 01:25:57.710 align:middle line:84%
So if we're scattering off
the ion acoustic waves,

01:25:57.710 --> 01:25:59.767 align:middle line:84%
we expect to see small
frequency shifts.

01:25:59.767 --> 01:26:01.850 align:middle line:84%
If we're scattering off
the electron plasma waves,

01:26:01.850 --> 01:26:05.890 align:middle line:84%
we expect to see slightly
larger frequency shifts.

01:26:05.890 --> 01:26:09.000 align:middle line:90%
