Structure and Dynamics of Colliding Plasma Jets

Structure and Dynamics of Colliding Plasma Jets

Monoenergetic-proton radiographs of laser-generated, high-Mach-number plasma jets colliding at various angles shed light on the structures and dynamics of these collisions. The observations compare favorably with results from 2D hydrodynamic simulations of multistream plasma jets, and also with resu...
