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…
Detection of current-sheet and bipolar ion flows in a self-generated antiparallel magnetic field of laser-produced plasmas for magnetic reconnection research
T. Morita, S. Matsukiyo, S. Isayama +18
Magnetic reconnection in laser-produced magnetized plasma is investigated by using optical diagnostics. The magnetic field is generated via Biermann battery effect, and the inverse…
High-power laser experiment forming a supercritical collisionless shock in a magnetized uniform plasma at rest
Ryo Yamazaki, S. Matsukiyo, T. Morita +51
We present a new experimental method to generate quasi-perpendicular supercritical magnetized collisionless shocks. In our experiment, ambient nitrogen (N) plasma is at rest and we…
Anomalous plasma acceleration in colliding high-power laser-produced plasmas
T. Morita, K. Nagashima, M. Edamoto +20
We developed an experimental platform for studying magnetic reconnection in an external magnetic field with simultaneous measurements of plasma imaging, flow velocity, and magnetic…
