Experimental Studies of Magnetically Driven Plasma Jets
F. Suzuki-Vidal, S. V. Lebedev, S. N. Bland +11
We present experimental results on the formation of supersonic, radiatively cooled jets driven by pressure due to the toroidal magnetic field generated by the 1.5 MA, 250 ns curren…
Formation of Episodic Magnetically Driven Radiatively Cooled Plasma Jets in the Laboratory
F. Suzuki-Vidal, S. V. Lebedev, A. Ciardi +11
We report on experiments in which magnetically driven radiatively cooled plasma jets were produced by a 1 MA, 250 ns current pulse on the MAGPIE pulsed power facility. The jets wer…
Supersonic radiatively cooled rotating flows and jets in the laboratory
D. J. Ampleford, S. V. Lebedev, A. Ciardi +10
The first laboratory astrophysics experiments to produce a radiatively cooled plasma jet with dynamically significant angular momentum are discussed. A new configuration of wire ar…
The evolution of magnetic tower jets in the laboratory
A. Ciardi, S. V. Lebedev, A. Frank +12
The evolution of laboratory produced magnetic jets is followed numerically through three-dimensional, non-ideal magnetohydrodynamic simulations. The experiments are designed to stu…
3D MHD Simulations of Laboratory Plasma Jets
A. Ciardi, S. V. Lebedev, A. Frank +11
Jets and outflows are thought to be an integral part of accretion phenomena and are associated with a large variety of objects. In these systems, the interaction of magnetic fields…
Magnetic Tower Outflows from a Radial Wire Array Z-pinch
S. . V. Lebedev, A. Ciardi, D. Ampleford +8
We present the first results of high energy density laboratory astrophysics experiments which explore the evolution of collimated outflows and jets driven by a toroidal magnetic fi…
