Experimental evidence for coronal mass ejection suppression in strong stellar magnetic fields

S. N. Chen, K. Burdonov, W. Yao +10

Solar coronal mass ejections (CME) are routinely observed, but as of yet there exist few convincing detections of stellar CMEs. A reason for this could be the stronger magnetic fie…

Experimental mitigation of fast magnetic reconnection in multiple interacting laser-produced plasmas

S. Bolaños, R. Smets, C. Courtois +11

The meeting of astrophysical plasmas and their magnetic fields creates many reconnection sites. We experimentally compare the reconnection rate of laser-driven magnetic reconnectio…

Numerical investigation of spallation neutrons generated from petawatt-scale laser-driven proton beams

B. Martinez, S. N. Chen, S. Bolaños +15

Due to their high cost of acquisition and operation, there are still a limited number of high-yield, high-flux neutron source facilities worldwide. In this context, laser-driven ne…

Detailed characterization of laboratory magnetized super-critical collisionless shock and of the associated proton energization

W. Yao, A. Fazzini, S. N. Chen +19

Collisionless shocks are ubiquitous in the Universe and are held responsible for the production of non-thermal particles and high-energy radiation. In the absence of particle colli…

Laboratory evidence for proton energization by collisionless shock surfing

W. Yao, A. Fazzini, S. N. Chen +19

Charged particles can be accelerated to high energies by collisionless shock waves in astrophysical environments, such as supernova remnants. By interacting with the magnetized amb…

Enhanced x-ray emission arising from laser-plasma confinement by a strong transverse magnetic field

E. D. Filippov, S. S. Makarov, K. F. Burdonov +13

We analyze, using experiments and 3D MHD numerical simulations, the dynamics and radiative properties of a plasma ablated by a laser (1 ns, 10-10 W/cm) from a sol…
