Radiatively Cooled Magnetic Reconnection Experiments Driven by Pulsed Power

R Datta, K Chandler, C E Myers +20

We present evidence for strong radiative cooling in a pulsed-power-driven magnetic reconnection experiment. Two aluminum exploding wire arrays, driven by a 20 MA peak current, 300…

Plasmoid formation and strong radiative cooling in a driven magnetic reconnection experiment

R. Datta, K. Chandler, C. E. Myers +20

We present results from the first experimental study of strongly radiatively-cooled magnetic reconnection. Two exploding aluminum wire arrays, driven simultaneously by the Z machin…

Quantification of MagLIF morphology using the Mallat Scattering Transformation

Michael E. Glinsky, Thomas W. Moore, William E. Lewis +7

The morphology of the stagnated plasma resulting from Magnetized Liner Inertial Fusion (MagLIF) is measured by imaging the self-emission x-rays coming from the multi-keV plasma. Eq…
