Laboratory radiative accretion shocks on GEKKO XII laser facility for POLAR project
L. Van Box Som, E. Falize, M. Koenig +20
A new target design is presented to model high-energy radiative accretion shocks in polars. In this paper, we present the experimental results obtained on the GEKKO XII laser facil…
Quasi-periodic oscillations in accreting magnetic white dwarfs II. The asset of numerical modelling for interpreting observations
C. Busschaert, E. Falize, C. Michaut +2
Magnetic cataclysmic variables are close binary systems containing a strongly magnetized white dwarf that accretes matter coming from an M-dwarf companion. High-energy radiation co…
Experiments to investigate the effects of radiative cooling on plasma jet collimation
C. D. Gregory, A. Diziere, H. Aoki +15
Preliminary experiments have been performed to investigate the effects of radiative cooling on plasma jets. Thin (3 um - 5 um) conical shells were irradiated with an intense laser,…
Similarity Properties and Scaling Laws of Radiation Hydrodynamic Flows in Laboratory Astrophysics
Emeric Falize, Claire Michaut, Serge Bouquet
The spectacular recent development of modern high-energy density laboratory facilities which concentrate more and more energy in millimetric volumes allows the astrophysical commun…
Link between laboratory and astrophysical radiative shocks
Claire Michaut, Emeric Falize, Cécile Cavet +4
This work provides analytical solutions describing the post-shock structure of radiative shocks growing in astrophysics and in laboratory. The equations including a cooling functio…
Radiation Hydrodynamics Scaling Laws in High Energy Density Physics and Laboratory Astrophysics
Emeric Falize, Serge Bouquet, Claire Michaut
In this paper, radiating fluids scaling laws are studied. We focus on optically thin and optically thick regimes which are relevant for both astrophysics and laboratory experiments…
