Proton Imaging of High-Energy-Density Laboratory Plasmas
Derek B. Schaeffer, Archie F. A. Bott, Marco Borghesi +8
Proton imaging has become a key diagnostic for measuring electromagnetic fields in high-energy-density (HED) laboratory plasmas. Compared to other techniques for diagnosing fields,…
Determining the Self-Similar Stage of the Rayleigh-Taylor Instability via LLNL's NIF Discovery Science Experiments
A. Shimony, C. M. Huntington, K. A. Flippo +4
We report a novel measurement of the late time self-similar growth constant of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability (RTI) from controlled initial perturbations. To this end, we ha…
Direct measurement of non-thermal electron acceleration from magnetically driven reconnection in a laboratory plasma
Abraham Chien, Lan Gao, Shu Zhang +24
Magnetic reconnection is a ubiquitous astrophysical process that rapidly converts magnetic energy into some combination of plasma flow energy, thermal energy, and non-thermal energ…
Magnetic field generation from composition gradients in inertial confinement fusion fuel
James D. Sadler, Hui Li, Kirk A. Flippo
Experimental asymmetries in fusion implosions can lead to magnetic field generation in the hot plasma core. For typical parameters, previous studies found that the magnetisation Ha…
Overcoming the dephasing limit in multiple-pulse laser wakefield acceleration
James D. Sadler, Christopher Arran, Hui Li +1
The electric field in laser-driven plasma wakefield acceleration is orders of magnitude higher than conventional radio-frequency cavities, but the energy gain is limited by dephasi…
Modeling hydrodynamics, magnetic fields and synthetic radiographs for high-energy-density plasma flows in shock-shear targets
Yingchao Lu, Shengtai Li, Hui Li +11
Three-dimensional FLASH radiation-magnetohydrodynamics (radiation-MHD) modeling is carried out to study the hydrodynamics and magnetic fields in the shock-shear derived platform. S…
