A thin-shell instability in collisionless plasma
M. E. Dieckmann, H. Ahmed, D. Doria +6
The thin-shell instability has been named as one process, which can generate entangled structures in astrophysical plasma on collisional (fluid) scales. It is driven by a spatially…
The evolution of a slow electrostatic shock into a plasma shock mediated by electrostatic turbulence
Mark Eric Dieckmann, Gianluca Sarri, Domenico Doria +2
The collision of two plasma clouds at a speed that exceeds the ion acoustic speed can result in the formation of shocks. This phenomenon is observed not only in astrophysical scena…
Time-resolved characterization of the formation of a collisionless shock
H Ahmed, ME Dieckmann, L Romagnani +11
We report on the temporally and spatially resolved detection of the precursory stages that lead to the formation of an unmagnetized, supercritical collision-less shock in a laser-d…
