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…
Investigating radiatively driven, magnetised plasmas with a university scale pulsed-power generator
Jack W. D. Halliday, Aidan Crilly, Jeremy Chittenden +8
We present first results from a novel experimental platform which is able to access physics relevant to topics including indirect-drive magnetised ICF; laser energy deposition; var…
A Time-Resolved Imaging System for the Diagnosis of X-ray Self-Emission in High Energy Density Physics Experiments
Jack W. D. Halliday, Simon N. Bland, Jack D. Hare +4
A diagnostic capable of recording spatially and temporally resolved X-ray self emission data was developed to characterise experiments on the MAGPIE pulsed-power generator. The dia…
Persistent mysteries of jet engines, formation, propagation, and particle acceleration: have they been addressed experimentally?
Eric G. Blackman, Sergey V. Lebedev
The physics of astrophysical jets can be divided into three regimes: (i) engine and launch (ii) propagation and collimation, (iii) dissipation and particle acceleration. Since astr…
Interactions of magnetized plasma flows in pulsed-power driven experiments
L G Suttle, G C Burdiak, C L Cheung +11
A supersonic flow of magnetized plasma is produced by the application of a 1 MA-peak, 500 ns current pulse to a cylindrical arrangement of parallel wires, known as an inverse wire…
Hydrodynamic and Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations of Wire Turbulence
Erica Fogerty, Baowei Liu, Adam Frank +2
We report on simulations of laboratory experiments in which magnetized supersonic flows are driven through a wire mesh. The goal of the study was to investigate the ability of such…
