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…

Simulations of Radiatively Cooled Magnetic Reconnection Driven by Pulsed Power

Rishabh Datta, Aidan J. Crilly, Jeremy P. Chittenden +12

Magnetic reconnection is an important process in astrophysical environments, as it re-configures magnetic field topology and converts magnetic energy into thermal and kinetic energ…

Plasma flows during the ablation stage of an over-massed pulsed-power-driven exploding planar wire array

R. Datta, J. Angel, J. B. Greenly +10

We characterize the plasma flows generated during the ablation stage of an over-massed exploding planar wire array, fielded on the COBRA pulsed-power facility (1 MA peak current, 2…

Measurements of dense fuel hydrodynamics in the NIF burning plasma experiments using backscattered neutron spectroscopy

A. J. Crilly, D. J. Schlossberg, B. D. Appelbe +9

The hydrodynamics of the dense confining fuel shell is of great importance in defining the behaviour of the burning plasma and burn propagation regimes of inertial confinement fusi…

Radiative cooling effects on reverse shocks formed by magnetised supersonic plasma flows

S. Merlini, J. D. Hare, G. C. Burdiak +15

We study the structure of reverse shocks formed by the collision of supersonic, magnetised plasma flows driven by an inverse (or exploding) wire array with a planar conducting obst…

Primary Neutron Spectra in Ion Vlasov-Fokker-Planck Simulations

B. D. Appelbe, W. T. Taitano, A. J. Crilly +3

The energy spectra of unscattered neutrons produced by deuterium-deuterium and deuterium-tritium fusion reactions are an important diagnostic in High Energy Density Physics experim…
