Plasma-jet-driven magneto-inertial fusion (PJMIF) is an alternative approach to controlled nuclear fusion which aims to utilize a line-replaceable dense plasma liner as a repetitive spherical compression driver. In this experiment, first…
The compression and stability of plasma targets for the plasma jet-induced magneto-inertial fusion (PJMIF) have been investigated via large scale simulations using the FronTier code capable of explicit tracking of material interfaces. In…
We study the cusp configuration of pre-seeded magnetic field for laser-driven flux-compression. The proposed configuration provides better particle confinement than that in Ref. [O.V. Gotchev et al., Journal of Fusion Energy 27 (2008)…
A nonlinear time dependent fluid simulation model is developed that describes the evolution of magnetohydrodynamic waves in the presence of collisional and charge exchange interactions of a partially ionized plasma. The partially ionized…
One of the ultimate goals of computational modeling in condensed matter is to be able to accurately compute materials properties with minimal empirical information. First-principles approaches such as the density functional theory (DFT)…
An evolutionary process of the fast magnetic reconnection in ``free space'' which is free from any influence of outer circumstance has been studied semi-analytically, and a self-similarly expanding solution has been obtained. The…
Understanding the structure and thermodynamics of solvated ions is essential for advancing applications in electrochemistry, water treatment, and energy storage. While ab initio molecular dynamics methods are highly accurate, they are…
Imposing a magnetic field on inertial confinement fusion (ICF) implosions magnetizes the electrons in the compressed fuel; this suppresses thermal losses which increases temperature and fusion yield. Indirect-drive experiments at the…
Magneto-Inertial Fusion Technology Inc. has been working on a Z-pinch concept where a high atomic number liner is compressing a fusion fuel (deuterium-deuterium, or deuterium-tritium) target. The viability of this so called Staged Z-pinch…
Using the in-viscid two-field reduced MHD model, a new analytical theory is developed to unify the Hahm-Kulsrud-Taylor (HKT) linear solution and the Rutherford quasi-linear regime. Adopting a quasi-linear approach, we obtain a closed system…
The Plasma Liner Experiment (PLX) at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) is a platform that seeks to achieve fusion via the Plasma-Jet-Driven Magneto-Inertial Fusion (PJMIF) concept. The experiment utilizes a constellation of plasma guns…
Astrophysical observations suggest that magnetic reconnection in relativistic plasmas plays an important role in the acceleration of energetic particles. Modeling this accurately requires numerical schemes capable of addressing large scales…

A theory of the magnetic field driven (semi-)metal-insulator phase transition is developed for planar systems with a low density of carriers and a linear (i.e., relativistic like) dispersion relation for low energy quasiparticles. The…
We present experimental and theoretical studies of magnetic levitation of hydrogen gas bubble surrounded by liquid hydrogen confined in a semi-transparent spherical shell of 3 mm internal diameter. Such shells are used as targets for the…
We present a flexible, detailed model for the evolution of galactic discs in a cosmological context since $z\approx 4$, including a physically-motivated model for radial transport of gas and stars within galactic discs. This expansion…
We use the semi-analytic model (SAM) of galaxy formation and evolution SAG coupled with the MULTIDARK simulation MDPL2 to study the evolution of the stellar mass-gas metallicity relation of galaxies (MZR). We test several implementations of…
Magnetic reconnection is an important process in astrophysical environments, as it re-configures magnetic field topology and converts magnetic energy into thermal and kinetic energy. In extreme astrophysical systems, such as black hole…
