Показать описание
Instabilities in the Crab Nebula jet; magnetic reconnection in the magnetopause; collisionless shocks in the universe, caused by supersonic plasma flows. These are just some of the astrophysical events being studied at the PSFC using high-energy-density plasmas generated by laser facilities. Learn more about these phenomena and the laser facilities that support MIT's astrophysical research.

High mach-number plasma jets seem pretty hot. What sort of densities are they?

Edit: I should have waited. Table at 28:50 answers all my questions.
