Article Synopsis
- The study investigates perpendicular subcritical shocks created in a laboratory plasma environment using obstacles in a supermagnetosonic outflow from a z pinch setup.
- It confirms the presence of these shocks and notes the formation of secondary shocks downstream, with measurements revealing no significant hydrodynamic jump in shock structure.
- Additionally, the research finds minimal heating across the shock and demonstrates that the classical resistive diffusion length is roughly equal to the width of the shock, indicating low viscous dissipation.
