Z Pinch Kinetics II -- A Continuum Perspective: Betatron Heating and Self-Generation of Sheared Flows
D. W. Crews, E. T. Meier, U. Shumlak
Adiabatic compression of a self-magnetizing current filament (a Z pinch) is analyzed via the adiabatic invariants of its constituent cyclotron and betatron motions. Chew-Goldberger…
Effects of transitional orbit magnetization on transport and current in Z pinches
D. W. Crews, E. T. Meier, U. Shumlak
The azimuthal self-magnetic field of the ideal Z pinch contains a central magnetic null. Trajectories around this null govern transport in the core. Particles follow cyclotron orbi…
The Kadomtsev pinch revisited for sheared-flow-stabilized Z-pinch modeling
Daniel W. Crews, Iman A. M. Datta, Eric T. Meier +1
The Kadomtsev pinch, namely the Z-pinch profile marginally stable to interchange modes, is revisited in light of observations from axisymmetric MHD modeling of the FuZE sheared-flo…
Whole Device Modeling of the FuZE Sheared-Flow-Stabilized Z Pinch
I. A. M. Datta, E. T. Meier, U. Shumlak
The FuZE sheared-flow-stabilized Z pinch at Zap Energy is simulated using whole-device modeling employing an axisymmetric resistive magnetohydrodynamic formulation implemented with…
