Observation of fast current redistribution in an imploding plasma column
Christine Stollberg, Eyal Kroupp, Dimitry Mikitchuk +10
Spectroscopic measurements of the magnetic field evolution in a Z-pinch throughout stagnation and with particularly high spatial resolution reveal a sudden current redistribution f…
Self-generated plasma rotation in a Z-pinch implosion with preembedded axial magnetic field
M. Cvejić, D. Mikitchuk, E. Kroupp +8
Using detailed spectroscopic measurements, highly-resolved in both time and space, a self-generated plasma rotation is demonstrated for the first time in a cylindrical Z-pinch impl…
Perspectives on Physics of ExB Discharges Relevant to Plasma Propulsion and Similar Technologies
Igor D. Kaganovich, Andrei Smolyakov, Yevgeny Raitses +22
This paper provides perspectives on recent progress in the understanding of the physics of devices where the external magnetic field is applied perpendicularly to the discharge cur…
Current channel evolution in ideal Z pinch for general velocity profiles
Ian E. Ochs, Christine Stollberg, Eyal Kroupp +5
Recent diagnostic advances in gas-puff Z pinches at the Weizmann Institute for the first time allow the reconstruction of the current flow as a function of time and radius. These e…
Cumulative displacement induced by a magnetosonic soliton bouncing in a bounded plasma slab
Renaud Gueroult, Amnon Fructhman, Nathaniel J. Fisch
The passage of a magnetosonic (MS) soliton in a cold plasma leads to the displacement of charged particles in the direction of a compressive pulse and in the opposite direction of…
Turbulent stagnation in a z-pinch plasma
E. Kroupp, E. Stambulchik, A. Starobinets +7
The ion kinetic energy in a stagnating plasma was previously determined by Kroupp et al. (Kroupp et al., 2011), from Doppler-dominated lineshapes augmented by measurements of plasm…
