Characterizing the temporal evolution of Biermann-battery-driven magnetic reconnection in laser-ablated plasmas
T. Morita, Y. Muramoto, S. Isayama +30
This paper presents an experimental investigation of magnetic reconnection between two laser-produced expanding plasmas, focusing on the quantitative evaluation of the reconnection…
Mechanism of generating collisionless shock in magnetized gas plasma driven by laser-ablated target plasma
S. Matsukiyo, K. Oshida, S. Isayama +7
Mechanism of generating collisionless shock in magnetized gas plasma driven by laser-ablated target plasma is investigated by using one-dimensional full particle-in-cell simulation…
Laser-Driven Proton-Only Acceleration in a Multicomponent Near-Critical-Density Plasma
Y. Sakawa, H. Ishihara, S. N. Ryazantsev +26
An experimental investigation of collisionless shock ion acceleration is presented using a multicomponent plasma and a high-intensity picosecond duration laser pulse. Protons are t…
Competition of magnetic reconnections in self-generated and external magnetic fields
K. Sakai, T. Y. Huang, N. Khasanah +13
We investigate the competition of magnetic reconnections in self-generated and external magnetic fields in laser-produced plasmas. The temporal evolution of plasma structures measu…
