Application of the Portable Diagnostic Package to the Wisconsin High-temperature-superconducting Axisymmetric Mirror (WHAM)
Keisuke Fujii, Douglass Endrizzi, Jay K. Anderson +5
We present an application of the Portable Diagnostic Package (PDP) on the Wisconsin HTS Axisymmetric Mirror (WHAM), which integrates an optical emission spectroscopy (OES) system a…
Drift-cyclotron loss-cone instability in 3D simulations of a sloshing-ion simple mirror
Aaron Tran, Samuel J. Frank, Ari Y. Le +11
The kinetic stability of collisionless, sloshing beam-ion (45° pitch angle) plasma is studied in a 3D simple magnetic mirror, mimicking the Wisconsin High-temperature superconducto…
Confinement performance predictions for a high field axisymmetric tandem mirror
S. J. Frank, J. Viola, Yu. V. Petrov +14
This paper presents Hammir tandem mirror confinement performance analysis based on Realta Fusion's first-of-a-kind model for axisymmetric magnetic mirror fusion performance. This m…
Laminar and Turbulent Plasmoid Ejection in a Laboratory Parker Spiral Current Sheet
Ethan E. Peterson, Douglass A. Endrizzi, Michael Clark +8
Quasi-periodic plasmoid formation at the tip of magnetic streamer structures is observed to occur in experiments on the Big Red Ball as well as in simulations of these experiments…
Formation of Transient High- Plasmas in a Magnetized, Weakly Collisional Regime
T. Byvank, D. A. Endrizzi, C. B. Forest +3
We present experimental data providing evidence for the formation of transient (s) plasmas that are simultaneously weakly magnetized (i.e., Hall magnetization parameter…
The Wisconsin Plasma Astrophysics Laboratory
C. B. Forest, K. Flanagan, M. Brookhart +21
The Wisconsin Plasma Astrophysics Laboratory (WiPAL) is a flexible user facility designed to study a range of astrophysically relevant plasma processes as well as novel geometries…
