Laboratory measurements of energy partitioning and anomalous electron heating in magnetized, perpendicular collisionless shocks
V. Valenzuela-Villaseca, S. Totorica, J. Griff-McMahon +6
We present laboratory results on energy partitioning from supercritical, magnetized collisionless shock experiments (, ). We report the first ob…

Evolution of laser-driven magnetic fields from proton tomography
J. Griff-McMahon, V. Valenzuela-Villaseca, C. A. Walsh +9
Self-generated magnetic fields are commonly produced in high-power laser-plasma interactions. These fields can inhibit plasma heat-flow which makes them important in inertial fusio…

Collisionless ion-electron energy exchange in magnetized shocks
Y. Zhang, P. V. Heuer, H. Wen +7
Energy partition between ions and electrons in collisionless shocks has long been an unsolved fundamental physical problem. We show that kinetic simulations of moderate Alfvénic M…
