Dynamics of the plasma ejection structure in laboratory modeling of young star jets at plasma focus facilities

The use of “plasma focus” type facilities, such as PF-3 (Kurchatov Institute), makes it possible to carry out well-controlled and diagnosable laboratory experiments to study laboratory jets with scale parameters close to the jets of young stars. In this paper, we present the results of numerical modeling of plasma outburst propagation in PF-3. A self-consistent configuration was chosen as the initial conditions, which correctly takes into account the internal structure of the jet. This allowed us to obtain a detailed structure of the interaction between the magnetized emission and the ambient gas. Due to the scalability of such a structure, one should expect such a structure from the head shock waves of jets of young stars.
