DYnamics of turbuleNt plasmAs & Magnetic inductiOn

An innovative experimental plasma device

Our investigations will be driven by an innovative low-pressure, high-density plasma device, described in details in section Experiments. The experimental apparatus is located at Laboratoire de Physique, Ecole Normale Supérieure de Lyon

Description of the experimental setup

A linear plasma device is currently under operation, in which flow driving mechanisms are currently under tests.



In mid-views term, flows will be driven by both ends, in a similar ways as in von-Karman flows (see for instance the MHD features of von-Karman flows in liquid sodium, where dynamo action has been observed in the VKS dynamo
