Quadrupolar Density Structures in Driven Magnetic Reconnection Experiments with a Guide Field
T. W. O. Varnish, J. Chen, S. Chowdhry +10
Magnetic reconnection is a ubiquitous process in plasma physics, driving rapid and energetic events such as coronal mass ejections. Reconnection between magnetic fields with arbitr…
Plasmoid formation and strong radiative cooling in a driven magnetic reconnection experiment
R. Datta, K. Chandler, C. E. Myers +20
We present results from the first experimental study of strongly radiatively-cooled magnetic reconnection. Two exploding aluminum wire arrays, driven simultaneously by the Z machin…
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…
