Electric field in SPS: geometry and pulsed current effects
Electrical heating of the graphite die and punch assembly is a unique feature of the spark plasma sintering (SPS) process. The high currents needed to heat the die, despite its low resistance, can produce an electric field across the ceramic specimens that may be enough to induce field assisted sintering. Despite the large number of publications of SPS, the electric field intensity has not been...
متن کاملMotion of Flare Footpoint Emission and Inferred Electric Field in Reconnecting Current Sheets
A systematic motion of Ha kernels during solar Ñares can be regarded as the chromospheric signature of progressive magnetic reconnection in the corona, in that the magnetic Ðeld lines swept through by the kernel motion are those connected to the di†usion region at the reconnection point. In this paper, we present high-cadence and high-resolution Ha[1.3 observations of an impulsive Ñare that exh...
متن کاملMagnetic Weibel field generation in thin collisionless current sheets in reconnection in space plasma
In collisionless reconnection in space plasma like the magnetospheric tail or magnetopause current layer, magnetic fields can grow from thermal level by the action of the non-magnetic Weibel instability driven in thin (∆ < few λi) current layers by the counter-streaming electron inflow from the ‘ion diffusion’ (ion inertial Hall) region into the inner current (electron inertial) region from whe...
متن کاملMagnetic Flux Braiding: Force-Free Equilibria and Current Sheets
We use a numerical nonlinear multigrid magnetic relaxation technique to investigate the generation of current sheets in three-dimensional magnetic flux braiding experiments. We are able to catalogue the relaxed nonlinear force-free equilibria resulting from the application of deformations to an initially undisturbed region of plasma containing a uniform, vertical magnetic field. The deformation...
متن کاملThe Electric Current-systems of Magnetic Storms
1. This paper continues my discussion of the average characteristics of the field of geomagnetic disturbances or storms, given in two previous papers • which will be referred to as I and 2; the irregular part of magnetic disturbance is not considered. A condensed representation of the main average features of magnetic storms is given in 1 (pp. 61-72) and 2 (pp. 242-264), and evidence is describ...
