Atomic Modeling of Photoionization Fronts in Nitrogen Gas

William J. Gray, P. A. Keiter, H. Lefevre +5

Photoionization fronts play a dominant role in many astrophysical environments, but remain difficult to achieve in a laboratory experiment. Recent papers have suggested that experi…

Laboratory Photoionization Fronts in Nitrogen Gas: A Numerical Feasibility and Parameter Study

William J Gray, P. A. Keiter, H. Lefevre +5

Photoionization fronts play a dominant role in many astrophysical situations, but remain difficult to achieve in a laboratory experiment. We present the results from a computationa…

Experimental characterization of railgun-driven supersonic plasma jets motivated by high energy density physics applications

S. C. Hsu, E. C. Merritt, A. L. Moser +11

We report experimental results on the parameters, structure, and evolution of high-Mach-number (M) argon plasma jets formed and launched by a pulsed-power-driven railgun. The nomin…

One-dimensional radiation-hydrodynamic simulations of imploding spherical plasma liners with detailed equation-of-state modeling

J. S. Davis, S. C. Hsu, I. E. Golovkin +2

This work extends the one-dimensional radiation-hydrodynamic imploding spherical argon plasma liner simulations of T. J. Awe et al. [Phys. Plasmas 18, 072705 (2011)] by using a det…

One-dimensional radiation-hydrodynamic scaling studies of imploding spherical plasma liners

T. J. Awe, C. S. Adams, J. S. Davis +3

One-dimensional radiation-hydrodynamic simulations are performed to develop insight into the scaling of stagnation pressure with initial conditions of an imploding spherical plasma…
