Observations of magnetohydrodynamic rarefaction waves

Journal Article · · Phys. Fluids, v. 19, no. 4, pp. 602-603
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1063/1.861499· OSTI ID:4062444
Transverse magnetohydrodynamic rarefaction waves in a fully ionized deuterium plasma have been studied and measurements of the electron density as a function of time are compared with theoretical predictions. The agreement is good. (AIP)
