Simulation Study of the Influence of Experimental Variations on the Structure and Quality of Plasma Liners
Wen Shih, Roman Samulyak, Scott C. Hsu +3
Simulation studies of a section of a spherically imploding plasma liner, formed by the merger of six hypersonic plasma jets, have been performed at conditions relevant to the Plasm…
Experimental Measurements of Ion Heating in Collisional Plasma Shocks and Interpenetrating Supersonic Plasma Flows
Samuel J. Langendorf, Kevin C. Yates, Scott C. Hsu +2
We present time-resolved measurements of ion heating due to collisional plasma shocks and interpenetrating supersonic plasma flows, which are formed by the oblique merging of two c…
Magnetized Plasma Target for Plasma-Jet-Driven Magneto-Inertial Fusion
Scott C. Hsu, Samuel J. Langendorf
We identify the desired characteristics and parameters of a beta>1 magnetized plasma, possibly with highly tangled, open field lines, that could be a suitable target to be compress…
Physics Criteria for a Subscale Plasma Liner Experiment
Scott C. Hsu, Y. C. Francis Thio
Spherically imploding plasma liners, formed by merging hypersonic plasma jets, are a proposed standoff driver to compress magnetized target plasmas to fusion conditions [S. C. Hsu…
