Morphology of Shocked Lateral Outflows in Colliding Hydrodynamic Flows
R. N. Markwick, A. Frank, J. Carroll-Nellenback +6
Supersonic interacting flows occurring in phenomena such as protostellar jets give rise to strong shocks, and have been demonstrated in several laboratory experiments. To study suc…
The structure of 3D collisional magnetized bow shocks in pulsed-power-driven plasma flow
Rishabh Datta, Danny R. Russell, Iek Tang +5
We investigate 3D bow shocks in a highly collisional magnetized aluminum plasma, generated during the ablation phase of an exploding wire array on the MAGPIE facility (1.4 MA, 240…
Time-resolved velocity and ion sound speed measurements from simultaneous bow shock imaging and inductive probe measurements
R. Datta, D. R. Russell, T. Clayson +3
We present a technique to measure the time-resolved velocity and ion sound speed in magnetized, supersonic high-energy-density plasmas. We place an inductive (`b-dot') probe in a s…
Investigating radiatively driven, magnetised plasmas with a university scale pulsed-power generator
Jack W. D. Halliday, Aidan Crilly, Jeremy Chittenden +8
We present first results from a novel experimental platform which is able to access physics relevant to topics including indirect-drive magnetised ICF; laser energy deposition; var…
Characterization of Quasi-Keplerian, Differentially Rotating, Free-Boundary Laboratory Plasmas
V. Valenzuela-Villaseca, L. G. Suttle, F. Suzuki-Vidal +9
We present results from pulsed-power driven differentially rotating plasma experiments designed to simulate physics relevant to astrophysical disks and jets. In these experiments,…
Perpendicular subcritical shock structure in a collisional plasma experiment
D. R. Russell, G. C. Burdiak, J. J. Carroll-Nellenback +13
We present a study of perpendicular subcritical shocks in a collisional laboratory plasma. Shocks are produced by placing obstacles into the super-magnetosonic outflow from an inve…
