Laboratory Experiments of High-Energy-Density Shocks in Magnetized Supersonic Plasma Flows
Magnetized shocks are of interest in many astrophysical environments, in which high Mach number flows interact with ambient media, planetary obstacles, and/or spacecraft to generate strongly radiating shocks. Some examples include extrastellar jets from radio galaxies, relativistic jets from quasars...
