Proton deflectometry of a magnetic reconnection geometry

Laser-driven magnetic reconnection is investigated using proton deflectometry. Two laser beams of nanosecond duration were focused in close proximity on a solid target to intensities of I∼1× 1015 W cm-2. Through the well known ∇ ne ×∇ Te mechanism, azimuthal magnetic fields are generated around each...
