Investigation of Magnetic Fields in Z-Pinches via Multi-MeV Proton Deflectometry
Original language description
Proton deflectometry is a promising way for mapping electric and magnetic fields in high-density and high-temperature plasmas, where an application of the classical methods (B-dot probes, Faraday rotation, and Zeeman splitting) is limited. It is based on the detection of a multi-MeV proton beam deflected in examined B-fields. In the past years, it has been successfully utilized in laser-generated plasmas for E-field and B-field measurements. Using our numerical code, we investigate the capabilities of proton deflectometry as a diagnostic method of MA Z-pinches. We simulate proton trajectories propagating through typical Z-pinch B-fields in two fundamental experimental setups (radial and axial) in order to study synthetic images (deflectograms). We demonstrate where proton deflectometry might be beneficial for the Z-pinch research. We explain a formation of the key features of deflectograms, which give us information about a profile and strength of the Z-pinch B-fields. We introduce a BL parameter, denoting an effective B-field averaged along the deflected proton orbit and show its importance for the proton deflectometry.
