Observation of Shock-Front Separation in Multi-Ion-Species Collisional Plasma Shocks
Tom Byvank, Samuel J. Langendorf, Carsten Thoma +1
We observe shock-front separation and species-dependent shock widths in multi-ion-species collisional plasma shocks, which are produced by obliquely merging plasma jets of a He/Ar…
Experimental Study of Ion Heating in Obliquely Merging Hypersonic Plasma Jets
Samuel J Langendorf, Kevin C Yates, Scott C Hsu +2
In this experiment, we measure ion temperature evolution of collisional plasma shocks and colliding supersonic plasma flows across a range of species (Ar, Kr, Xe, N), Mach numbers,…
First experiments on Revolver shell collisions at the OMEGA Laser
Brett Scheiner, Mark J. Schmitt, Scott C. Hsu +9
Results of recent experiments on the OMEGA Laser are presented, demonstrating the ablator-driver shell collision relevant to the outer two shells of the Revolver triple-shell inert…
