Radiative cooling effects on reverse shocks formed by magnetised supersonic plasma flows

S. Merlini, J. D. Hare, G. C. Burdiak +15

We study the structure of reverse shocks formed by the collision of supersonic, magnetised plasma flows driven by an inverse (or exploding) wire array with a planar conducting obst…

An Imaging Refractometer for Density Fluctuation Measurements in High Energy Density Plasmas

J. D. Hare, G. C. Burdiak, S. Merlini +9

We report on a recently developed laser-probing diagnostic which allows direct measurements of ray-deflection angles in one axis, whilst retaining imaging capabilities in the other…

An Experimental Platform for Pulsed-Power Driven Magnetic Reconnection

J. D. Hare, L. G. Suttle, S. V. Lebedev +12

We describe a versatile pulsed-power driven platform for magnetic reconnection experiments, based on exploding wire arrays driven in parallel [Suttle, L. G. et al. PRL, 116, 225001…

Formation and Structure of a Current Sheet in Pulsed-Power Driven Magnetic Reconnection Experiments

J. D. Hare, S. V. Lebedev, L. G. Suttle +16

We describe magnetic reconnection experiments using a new, pulsed-power driven experimental platform in which the inflows are super-sonic but sub-Alfvénic.The intrinsically magneti…
