On the generation of astrophysically-relevant intermittent magnetic turbulence in the laboratory

Itamar Cohen, Weipeng Yao, Archie F. A. Bott +18

Intermittent magnetic turbulence, namely the presence of non-ordered and clusterized fields, is a ubiquitous phenomenon in space and astrophysical plasmas. It is currently understo…

Efficient ion re-acceleration in laboratory-produced interpenetrating collisionless shocks

W. Yao, I. Cohen, P. Suarez Gerona +20

Although the origin of cosmic rays (CRs) remains an open question, collisionless magnetized shock waves are widely regarded as key sites for particle acceleration. Recent theories…

A Field-Particle Correlation Analysis of a Perpendicular Magnetized Collisionless Shock: I. Theory

Gregory G. Howes, James Juno, Jason M. TenBarge +3

Collisionless shocks play an important role in space and astrophysical plasmas by irreversibly converting the energy of the incoming supersonic plasma flows into other forms, inclu…
