With the advent of high-energy-density (HED) experimental facilities, such as high-energy
lasers and fast Z-pinch, pulsed-power facilities, millimeter-scale quantities of matter can be …

High energy density (HED) physics refers broadly to the study of macroscopic collections of
matter under extreme conditions of temperature and density. The experimental facilities most …

Possibilities of laboratory simulation of various explosive phenomena in space and cosmic
plasmas with magnetic fields are analyzed on the bases of similarity criteria, properties of …

Measurement of magnetic fields generated by a high-energy, high-intensity laser-driven
millimeter-scale Helmholtz coil target is reported. The magnetic field is derived from a …

High-power laser-plasma experiments have been used to test models of space and
astrophysical interest for some time. Experiments have studied both hydrodynamic …

Laboratory astroplasma physics experiments advance both our astrophysics and plasma
physics knowledge. Contemporary high-energy, high-power laser technology enables us to …

Simulations of the initial expansion of a plasma injected into a stationary magnetized
background plasma in the presence of a dipole magnetic field are carried out in two …

Laboratory experiment is an attractive method of exploring the plasma physics that may
occur in solar and astrophysical shocks. An experiment enables repeated and detailed …

The collisionless interaction of an expanding high–energy plasma cloud with a magnetized
background plasma in the presence of a dipole magnetic field is examined in the framework …

The above Comment1 raises a number of questions regarding laser-plasma experiments
reported in a recent paper by Woolsey et al. 2 Most of these questions have already been …
