Episodic Magnetic Bubbles and Jets: Astrophysical Implications from Laboratory Experiments
Andrea Ciardi, Sergey V. Lebedev, Adam Frank +6
Collimated outflows (jets) are ubiquitous in the universe appearing around sources as diverse as protostars and extragalactic supermassive blackholes. Jets are thought to be magnet…
Curved Herbig-Haro Jets: Simulations and Experiments
A. Ciardi, D. J. Ampleford, S. V. Lebedev +1
Herbig-Haro jets often show some degree of curvature along their path, in many cases produced by the ram pressure of a side-wind. We present simulations of both laboratory and astr…
Supersonic radiatively cooled rotating flows and jets in the laboratory
D. J. Ampleford, S. V. Lebedev, A. Ciardi +10
The first laboratory astrophysics experiments to produce a radiatively cooled plasma jet with dynamically significant angular momentum are discussed. A new configuration of wire ar…
The evolution of magnetic tower jets in the laboratory
A. Ciardi, S. V. Lebedev, A. Frank +12
The evolution of laboratory produced magnetic jets is followed numerically through three-dimensional, non-ideal magnetohydrodynamic simulations. The experiments are designed to stu…
3D MHD Simulations of Laboratory Plasma Jets
A. Ciardi, S. V. Lebedev, A. Frank +11
Jets and outflows are thought to be an integral part of accretion phenomena and are associated with a large variety of objects. In these systems, the interaction of magnetic fields…
Magnetic Tower Outflows from a Radial Wire Array Z-pinch
S. . V. Lebedev, A. Ciardi, D. Ampleford +8
We present the first results of high energy density laboratory astrophysics experiments which explore the evolution of collimated outflows and jets driven by a toroidal magnetic fi…
