MRX

MRX - Magnetic Reconnection Experiment - is a small experiment in operation at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory. The objectives of this project are to:

  1. Study Global MHD Effects on Reconnection
    as well as Evolution of Magnetic Helicity
  2. How Magnetic Energy is converted to MHD flows and plasma thermal energy
  3. What non-MHD effects are dominant in the diffusion region.
