Digital holographic interferometry employing Fresnel transform reconstruction for the study of flow shear stabilized Z-pinch plasmas

Abstract: The ZaP-HD flow Z-pinch project provides a platform to explore how shear flow stabilized Z-pinches could scale to high-energy-density plasma (plasma with pressures exceeding 1 Mbar) and fusion reactor conditions. The Z-pinch is a linear plasma confinement geometry in which the plasma carries axial electric current and is confined by its self-induced magnetic field. ZaP-HD generates shear stabilized, axisymmetric Z-pinches with stable lifetimes approaching 60 μs. The goal of the project is to increase the plasm… Show more

“…Electromagnetic point sources can be modeled as interfering object and reference waves on a two-dimensional holographic recording surface Classical holograms are formed by the interference of light waves, with the information encoded on a two-dimensional surface and projected into a threedimensional volume [32,33]. It is worth noting that these principles can be extrapolated to any wave-like particle, to generate a hologram of the electrical field [44]. A photon, an electron, or even an entire ion, can be represented as the point source of an electromagnetic field, with the amplitude and phase of the wave represented by its absolute value and relative angle.…”
