Laser cooling of electron – ion plasma in the case of optimal scanning of the laser frequency

It is shown that the use of a constant detuning of the laser frequency from the quantum transition frequency ω0 in ions significantly limits the conditions under which the ions are cooled. To extend the range of initial temperatures of possible cooling of ions and to increase the cooling efficiency we suggest scanning the laser frequency detuning so that the cooling rate remained maximal in the process of changing the temperature of ions. In the case of an optimal detuning, we have found an asymptotic expression for the cooling rate and identified intervals of electron concentrations and temperatures, where cooling of ions is possibl
