Insensitivity of a turbulent laser-plasma dynamo to initial conditions
A. F. A. Bott, L. Chen, P. Tzeferacos +18
It has recently been demonstrated experimentally that a turbulent plasma created by the collision of two inhomogeneous, asymmetric, weakly magnetised laser-produced plasma jets can…
Time-resolved fast turbulent dynamo in a laser plasma
A. F. A. Bott, P. Tzeferacos, L. Chen +25
Understanding magnetic-field generation and amplification in turbulent plasma is essential to account for observations of magnetic fields in the universe. A theoretical framework a…
Fast magnetic reconnection in highly-extended current sheets at the National Ignition Facility
W. Fox, D. B. Schaeffer, M. J. Rosenberg +12
Fast magnetic reconnection was observed between magnetized laser-produced plasmas at the National Ignition Facility. Two highly-elongated plasma plumes were produced by tiling two…
Transport of high-energy charged particles through spatially-intermittent turbulent magnetic fields
L. E. Chen, A. F. A. Bott, P. Tzeferacos +22
Identifying the sources of the highest energy cosmic rays requires understanding how they are deflected by the stochastic, spatially intermittent intergalactic magnetic field. Here…
Laboratory evidence of dynamo amplification of magnetic fields in a turbulent plasma
P. Tzeferacos, A. Rigby, A. Bott +27
Magnetic fields are ubiquitous in the Universe. Extragalactic disks, halos and clusters have consistently been shown, via diffuse radio-synchrotron emission and Faraday rotation me…
Numerical modeling of laser-driven experiments aiming to demonstrate magnetic field amplification via turbulent dynamo
P. Tzeferacos, A. Rigby, A. Bott +29
The universe is permeated by magnetic fields, with strengths ranging from a femtogauss in the voids between the filaments of galaxy clusters to several teragauss in black holes and…
Development of an Interpretive Simulation Tool for the Proton Radiography Technique
M. C. Levy, D. D. Ryutov, S. C. Wilks +7
Proton radiography is a useful diagnostic of high energy density (HED) plasmas under active theoretical and experimental development. In this paper we describe a new simulation too…
Observation of magnetic field generation via the Weibel instability in interpenetrating plasma flows
C. M. Huntington, F. Fiuza, J. S. Ross +18
Collisionless shocks can be produced as a result of strong magnetic fields in a plasma flow, and therefore are common in many astrophysical systems. The Weibel instability is one c…
