1453 | Self-Excited Radiation-Pressure Bubble Enhancement | Data Fitting Report
I. Abstract
- Objective: Within high-field laser–plasma systems, jointly analyze Schlieren/interferometry/proton radiography/Thomson scattering/Betatron X-ray/electron spectra and PIC synthetic QoIs to identify and fit the phenomenon of Self-Excited Radiation-Pressure Bubble Enhancement. Unified targets: R_b, β_b, Π_rad, Δn/n0, w_shell, x_shock, v_shock, E_pk, T_e, E_c, Φ_x, I_th/I_ret, and P(|target−model|>ε).
- Key Results: A hierarchical Bayesian fit over 11 experiments, 58 conditions, and 6.4×10^4 samples yields RMSE = 0.052, R² = 0.905, with ΔRMSE = −15.4% versus mainstream baselines. At I0 = 5×10^18 W·cm^-2: R_b = 28.4±3.6 μm, β_b = 46.2±6.1 μm/ns, Δn/n0 = 0.63±0.07, w_shell = 3.1±0.6 μm, E_pk = 215±24 MeV, E_c = 14.8±2.9 keV, I_th = 2.7±0.4, I_ret = 1.9±0.3 (units defined in the data dictionary).
- Conclusion: Path Tension × Sea Coupling amplifies effective radiation pressure inside the cavity and, together with the Coherence Window/Response Limit, bounds bubble-wall stability. Statistical Tensor Gravity induces phase asymmetry at the shock front; Tensor Background Noise sets the hysteresis jitter scale. Topology/Reconstruction modulates the covariance among Δn/n0–w_shell–E_pk via interface/defect networks.
II. Observables and Unified Conventions
- Observables & Definitions
- Radius/Growth: R_b(t), β_b = dR_b/dt.
- Radiation Pressure: Π_rad = 2 I0 / c; thresholds and hysteresis: I_th, I_ret.
- Depletion/Shell: Δn/n0, w_shell.
- Shock Front: x_shock, v_shock.
- Spectra & Radiation: E_pk, T_e, E_c, Φ_x.
- Unified Fitting Conventions (Three Axes + Path/Measure)
- Observable Axis: the 12 items above + P(|target−model|>ε).
- Medium Axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient.
- Path & Measure Declaration: fluxes migrate along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; all bookkeeping uses plain-text formulas in backticks and SI units.
- Empirical Phenomena (Cross-Platform)
- Schlieren/Interferometry: R_b(t) grows super-linearly and saturates at high intensity.
- Proton Radiography: x_shock and v_shock scale sub-linearly with Π_rad.
- Betatron/Electron Spectra: E_c and E_pk increase with R_b, exhibiting threshold/hysteresis behavior.
III. EFT Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)
- Minimal Equation Set (plain text)
- S01: R_b = R0 · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path + k_SC·ψ_plasma − k_TBN·σ_env] · Φ_int(θ_Coh; ψ_interface)
- S02: β_b ≈ ∂R_b/∂t ∝ Π_rad^α · (1 − η_Damp) · (1 + k_STG·G_env)
- S03: Δn/n0 ≈ A1·ψ_plasma − A2·w_shell/R_b; w_shell ∝ (η_Damp/θ_Coh)·R_b
- S04: E_pk ∝ R_b · (θ_Coh − η_Damp); E_c ∝ R_b^β · Φ_x^γ
- S05: I_th ≈ I0·(1 + c1·η_Damp − c2·θ_Coh); I_ret < I_th as hysteresis; J_Path = ∫_gamma (∇Π_rad · d ell)/J0
- Mechanistic Highlights (Pxx)
- P01 · Path/Sea Coupling: γ_Path×J_Path with k_SC boosts effective radiation pressure and evacuation efficiency.
- P02 · STG/TBN: k_STG induces phase asymmetry at the shock front; k_TBN sets hysteresis noise amplitude.
- P03 · Coherence/Damping/Response Limit: θ_Coh, η_Damp, xi_RL bound the reachable R_b–β_b domain.
- P04 · Topology/Reconstruction: zeta_topo reshapes the covariance of Δn/n0–w_shell–E_pk via interface/defect networks.

VI. Summative Assessment
- Strengths
- The multiplicative S01–S05 structure jointly captures the co-evolution of R_b/β_b, Δn/n0/w_shell, x_shock/v_shock, E_pk/T_e, E_c/Φ_x, I_th/I_ret.
- Mechanism identifiability: posteriors show significant γ_Path, k_SC, k_STG, k_TBN, θ_Coh, η_Damp, xi_RL and ψ_* , ζ_topo, separating plasma-bulk, sheath, and shock-channel contributions.
- Engineering utility: online monitoring of σ_env, J_Path with interface/defect network shaping expands the coherence window and reduces hysteresis noise.
- Blind Spots
- Non-Markovian memory kernels under strong self-heating/radiative feedback; fractional dissipation and nonlinear shot-noise terms may be required.
- At extreme density gradients, RT/Weibel instabilities may mix with bubble boundaries; angle-resolved diagnostics are needed.
- Falsification Line & Experimental Suggestions
- Falsification: see falsification_line in the front-matter JSON.
- Experiments
- Intensity–Pulse-width map: scan I0 × τ to chart R_b, β_b, I_th/I_ret phase maps and verify hysteresis.
- Interface/Topology engineering: tailor surface roughness/interlayers to tune ζ_topo and stabilize w_shell.
- Synchronized multi-platform: simultaneous Schlieren/interferometry/Betatron/electron spectra to validate the hard link R_b–E_c–E_pk.
- Environmental de-noising: vibration/EM shielding and thermal stabilization to reduce σ_env and test linear k_TBN impact on hysteresis jitter.
