Hall-MHD in driven turbulence FLASH simulations

A. Mohapatra, E. C. Hansen, A. Reyes +3

The origin of magnetic fields in turbulent astrophysical systems has long been a central problem in plasma astrophysics. Fluctuation dynamos are a class of field amplification mech…

Laboratory observation of collective beam-plasma instabilities in a relativistic pair jet

J W D Halliday, C D Arrowsmith, A M Goillot +37

We report on a measurement of collective behavior in a relativistic electron-positron pair plasma produced in the laboratory. Using the Fireball platform at CERN's HiRadMat facilit…

Measurement of ion acceleration and diffusion in a laser-driven magnetized plasma

J. T. Y. Chu, J. W. D. Halliday, C. Heaton +25

Here we present results from an experiment performed at the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research. A mono-energetic beam of chromium ions with initial energies of …

Collisional whistler instability and electron temperature staircase in inhomogeneous plasma

N. A. Lopez, A. F. A. Bott, A. A. Schekochihin

High-beta magnetized plasmas often exhibit anomalously structured temperature profiles, as seen from galaxy cluster observations and recent experiments. It is well known that when…

Laboratory realization of relativistic pair-plasma beams

C. D. Arrowsmith, P. Simon, P. Bilbao +26

Relativistic electron-positron plasmas are ubiquitous in extreme astrophysical environments such as black holes and neutron star magnetospheres, where accretion-powered jets and pu…

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…
