Garner, a professor of nuclear engineering at Purdue University and U-M NERS alumnus, will discuss new mathematical approaches to modeling electron emission and current flow in complex geometries. His research explores how different electron emission mechanisms interact with space-charge limitations, offering alternatives to computationally expensive simulations. These models have applications in high-power microwaves, directed energy, radiation devices, and semiconductor manufacturing.\n\nAbstract:\nElectron emission physics is important in high-power microwaves, directed energy, high-power radiation devices, and sheath physics in plasma processing in the semiconductor industry. Electrons may be emitted due to strong electric fields by field emission (FE) or high cathode temperatures by thermal emission (TE). Jensen developed a mathematical framework to link FE, TE, and photoemission. Regardless of source, only so much current may be emitted into a gap. The resulting space-charge-limited current density (SCLCD) was derived over a century ago for a one-dimensional (1D) vacuum planar diode by Child and Langmuir, while Mott and Gurney derived an analogous law for semiconductors three decades later. Extensions to more realistic geometries and intermediate conditions between the Child-Langmuir (CLL) and Mott-Gurney (MGL) laws, as well as FE and TE, are challenging, often requiring detailed and computationally expensive simulations. This seminar describes approaches to model multidimensional, nonplanar geometries with multiple emission mechanisms and apply these models to practical conditions. \nFirst, we summarize geometric approaches to generalize SCLCD calculations. We apply variational calculus (VC) to extremize the current in the gap, conformal mapping of the space-charge electric potential to translate the solution from Cartesian coordinates to the geometry of interest, and Lie point symmetries (i.e., point transformations) to derive exact solutions for multiple 1D geometries. We further derive a universal relationship between vacuum electric potential and space-charge limited potential that yields SCLCD for multidimensional diodes with any geometry and apply it to derive the SCLCD for a tip-to-tip geometry and for arrays of tips, demonstrating reasons for disagreements between theory and particle-in-cell simulations. Since all these approaches depend on electric potential, we demonstrate the importance of the spatial variation of electric potential in a collisional gap and how it relates to the collision frequency. We further demonstrate the utility of these equations to calculate the collision frequency in a gap.\nNext, we describe our application of \u201cnexus\u201d theory to describe the transition between source currents (e.g., FE or TE) and the SCLCD. We combine nexus theory with point transformation to generalize SCLCD and the transitions between the source currents and SCLCD for nonplanar diodes. Using current-voltage curves from molecular dynamics simulations, we demonstrate how to combine nexus theory and charge-free electric potential to calculate emission area for any mechanism and geometry.\n\nBio: \nDr. Allen L.

His work connects fundamental nuclear physics with practical challenges in international security and nonproliferation.\n\nAreg Danagoulian is an Associate Professor of Nuclear Science and Engineering at MIT. He did his PhD research in Experimental Nuclear Physics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Areg\u2019s PhD thesis focused on experiments that used real Compton scattering on the proton at 2-6 GeV, allowing to probe the proton's internal structure and understand how it couples to external excitations. After his PhD Areg worked at Los Alamos as a postdoctoral researcher, and then as a senior scientist at Passport Systems, Inc. (PSI). At PSI Areg focused on the development of Prompt Neutron from Photofission (PNPF) technique, which allows to rapidly detect shielded fissionable materials in the commercial cargo traffic. Areg's current research interests focus on nuclear physics applications in nuclear security, such areas nuclear nonproliferation, technologies for treaty verification, nuclear safeguards, and cargo security.\n\nProf. Danagoulian's research has earned him and his research team a number of important awards, such as:\n\nFellow of the American Physical Society, Forum on Physics and Society (2025). Citation: \u201cFor seminal technological contributions in the field of arms control and cargo security, which significantly benefit international security.\u201d\n\nArms Control Association\u2019s Arms Control Person(s) of the Year award, \u201cFor developing an innovative new nuclear disarmament verification process using neutron beams,\u201d 2020. \n\nAmerican Nuclear Society Radiation Science and Technology Award, \u201cFor technology-critical contributions exploiting nuclear resonance phenomena for warhead verification in nuclear disarmament and nuclear detection techniques in cargo security,\u201d 2019\n\nThe NERS Colloquia Series invites leading researchers, industry experts, and thought leaders from across the nuclear engineering and radiological sciences community to share their insights with students, faculty, and guests.
