Formation and structure of a current sheet in pulsed-power driven magnetic reconnection experiments

Formation and structure of a current sheet in pulsed-power driven magnetic reconnection experiments

We describe magnetic reconnection experiments using a new, pulsed-power driven experimental platform in which the inflows are super-sonic but sub-Alfvénic. The intrinsically magnetised plasma flows are long lasting, producing a well-defined reconnection layer that persists over many hydrodynamic ti...
