First Observation of Dispersive Shock Waves in an Electron Beam
H. McCright, I. G. Abel, I. Haber +2
Dispersive shock waves (DSWs) are expanding nonlinear wave trains that arise when dispersion regularizes a steepening front, a phenomenon observed in fluids, plasmas, optics, and s…
From plasma to pattern: observation and characterization of periodic structure formation in dielectric breakdown channels of electron-irradiated insulators
Nick R. Schwartz, Bryson C. Clifford, Carolyn Chun +11
Dielectric breakdown of insulators is one of the most common failure modes of electronics in the high-radiation environment of space, but its mechanics remain poorly understood. Wh…
Electrically insulating materials for centrifugal mirrors
Nick R. Schwartz, Carlos A. Romero-Talamás, Marlene I. Patino +10
The centrifugal mirror confinement scheme incorporates supersonic rotation into a magnetic mirror device, which stabilizes and heats the plasma. This concept is under investigation…
Measurements of Fusion Yield on the Centrifugal Mirror Fusion Experiment
John L. Ball, Shon Mackie, Jacob G. van de Lindt +9
The Centrifugal Mirror Fusion Experiment (CMFX) at the University of Maryland, College Park is a rotating mirror device that utilizes a central cathode to generate a radial electri…
