Experiment to Form and Characterize a Section of a Spherically Imploding Plasma Liner
S. C. Hsu, S. J. Langendorf, K. C. Yates +13
We describe an experiment to form and characterize a section of a spherically imploding plasma liner by merging six supersonic plasma jets that are launched by newly designed conto…
Ideal hydrodynamic scaling relations for a stagnated imploding spherical plasma liner formed by an array of merging plasma jets
J. T. Cassibry, M. Stanic, S. C. Hsu
This work presents scaling relations for the peak thermal pressure and stagnation time (over which peak pressure is sustained) for an imploding spherical plasma liner formed by an…
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…
Tendency of spherically imploding plasma liners formed by merging plasma jets to evolve toward spherical symmetry
J. T. Cassibry, M. Stanic, S. C. Hsu +2
Three dimensional hydrodynamic simulations have been performed using smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) in order to study the effects of discrete jets on the processes of plasma…
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…
