  1. The Effect of Anomalous Resistivity on the Electrothermal Instability

    … instability (ETI) forms when the material resistivity is temperature dependent, occurring in nearly all Z-pinch-like high energy density platforms. ETI growth for high-mass density materials is predominantly striation form which corresponds to magnetically perpendicular mode growth. The …

  2. The Effects of Weak Collisions on Nonlinear Plasma Kinetics

    … believed to be responsible for the generation of anomalous resistivity in reconnection layers, providing a possible mechanism for fast reconnection. The concept of Landau damping is fundamental to such wave kinetic instabilities in space, and is treated typically within the framework of the …

  3. Experimental study of current-driven turbulence during magnetic reconnection

    … of the finite reconnection rate due to classical resistivity fail to explain the fast and explosive nature of reconnection observed in these systems. A major goal of reconnection research is to determine which mechanisms enable "fast" reconnection to occur. This thesis studied the fluctuations …
