Experimental characterization of railgun-driven supersonic plasma jets motivated by high energy density physics applications

S. C. Hsu, E. C. Merritt, A. L. Moser +11

We report experimental results on the parameters, structure, and evolution of high-Mach-number (M) argon plasma jets formed and launched by a pulsed-power-driven railgun. The nomin…

Tendency of spherically imploding plasma liners formed by merging plasma jets to evolve toward spherical symmetry

J. T. Cassibry, M. Stanic, S. C. Hsu +2

Three dimensional hydrodynamic simulations have been performed using smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) in order to study the effects of discrete jets on the processes of plasma…
