THz wave propagation in the stagnation region of reentry plasma sheath

By using two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations, we demonstrate a terahertz (THz) wave propagating in the stagnation region of a reentry plasma sheath. When a THz wave propagates in the plasma sheath, the frequency blue shift is initiated as the wavelength is compressed. Attenuation is observe...
