Control of unsteady laser-produced plasma-flow with a multiple-coil magnetic nozzle
Abstract We report an experimental demonstration of controlling plasma flow direction with a magnetic nozzle consisting of multiple coils. Four coils are controlled separately to form an asymmetric magnetic field to change the direction of laser-produced plasma flow. The ablation plasma deforms the...
