Abstract

Laser-produced plasma cloud evolution in a magnetic field is investigated up to 3 kg using photographs and spectroheliograms. Generation of a plasma jet, oriented across the magnetic field, was detected, whose emission increases with the field strength and is more distinct for multicharged ions. The effects of the field on the interaction of closely located laser-produced plasma clouds were studied as well. The results of numerical analysis comply with experimental data on plasma behavior in the magnetic field.
