Fast magnetoacoustic wave is an important tool for inferring solar atmospheric parameters. We numerically simulate the propagation of fast wave pulses in randomly structured plasmas mimicking the highly inhomogeneous solar corona. A network…
The spatial-temporal evolution of coronal plasma parameters of the solar outer atmosphere at global scales, derived from solar full-disk imaging spectroscopic observation in the extreme-ultraviolet band, is critical for understanding and…
Solar variability investigations that include magnetic energy coupling are paramount to solving many key solar/stellar physics problems, particularly for understanding the temporal variability of magnetic energy redistribution and heating…
Particle-in-cell codes are now standard tools for studying ultra-intense laser-plasma interactions. Motivated by direct laser acceleration of electrons in sub-critical plasmas, we examine temporal resolution requirements that must be…
We report a design and implementation of proton radiography with an in situ reference X-ray image of a mesh to precisely measure non-uniform magnetic fields in expanding plasmas at the OMEGA and OMEGA EP laser facilities. The technique has…
Proton beams with up to 100 pC bunch charge, 0.48 MeV cut-off energy and divergence as low as a $3^{\circ}$ were generated from solid targets at kHz repetition rate by a few-mJ femtosecond laser under controlled plasma conditions. The beam…
Plasma wakefield accelerators (PWA), such as AWAKE, require homogenous high-density plasmas. The Madison AWAKE Prototype (MAP) has been built to create a uniform argon plasma in the $10^{20}\,\mathrm{m^{-3}}$ density range using helicon…
Extracting robust inferences on physical quantities from disk kinematics measured from Doppler-shifted molecular line emission is challenging due to the data's size and complexity. In this paper we develop a flexible linear model of the…
This article presents two measurement techniques to determine the diameter of a single dust particle during plasma operation. Using long-distance microscopy (LDM), the particle is imaged from outside the plasma chamber. In combination with…
Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) is a highly sensitive imaging method that enables the visualization of magnetic tracer materials with a temporal resolution of more than 46 volumes per second. In MPI the size of the field of view scales with…
The free-free opacity in plasmas is fundamental to our understanding of energy transport in stellar interiors and for inertial confinement fusion research. However, theoretical predictions in the challenging dense plasma regime are…
Ultra-intense laser-matter interaction experiments (>10$^{18}$ W/cm$^{2}$) with dense targets are highly sensitive to the effect of laser "noise" (in the form of pre-pulses) preceding the main ultra-intense pulse. These system-dependent…
Microparticles ranging from sub-microns to millimeter in size are a common form of matter in magnetic fusion environment, and they are highly mobile due to their small mass. Different forces in addition to gravity can affect their motion…
Radio telescopes are used to accurately measure the time of arrival (ToA) of radio pulses in pulsar timing experiments that target mostly millisecond pulsars (MSPs) due to their high rotational stability. This allows for detailed study of…
A photoacoustic (PA) sensor for fast and real-time gas sensing is demonstrated. The PA sensor is a standalone system controlled by a Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). The PA cell has been designed for flow noise immunity using…
A plasma impedance probe (PIP) is a type of in-situ, radio-frequency (RF) probe that is traditionally used to measure plasma properties (e.g. density) in low-density environments such as the Earth's ionosphere. We believe that PIPs are…
This letter describes a new phenomenon on the Parker Solar Probe of recurring plasma density enhancements that have $\Delta$n/n ~10% and that occur at a repetition rate of ~5 Hz. They were observed sporadically for about five hours between…
One of the major challenges for pulsar timing array (PTA) experiments is the mitigation of the effects of the turbulent interstellar medium (ISM) from timing data. These can potentially lead to measurable delays and/or distortions in the…
The standard architecture for a high-peak-power femtosecond laser is chirped pulse amplification using diffraction gratings for compression; the damage threshold of the compression gratings limits current lasers to multi-petawatt peak…
The Solar Probe Cup (SPC) is a Faraday Cup instrument onboard NASA's Parker Solar Probe (PSP) spacecraft designed to make rapid measurements of thermal coronal and solar wind plasma. The spacecraft is in a heliocentric orbit that takes it…
