``` TIL you can also get 1~10 kT of magnetic field by stirring up a plasma with four PW and kJ scale laser beams. (simulation only) [Two images: left, a schematic diagram of a laser-plasma experimental setup with colored beam paths (green, teal, red, purple) converging on a target cylinder with angle labels θ_conv and φ_twist; right, a 3D scatter/streamline plot labeled in μm axes (x, y, z) showing swirling reddish-yellow field/current filament structures.] > QUOTED: outside five sigma (@jwt0625...) · Apr 22, 2025 > You wake up in Japan, you find yourself a grad student in a lab that has a slice-of-life anime opening style theme song, and you go on your daily routine of destructive generation of 1200 T magnetic field. (electromagnetic flux-compression (EMFC), the field is so high the stress in the material is ~50 tons of force per square mm) [Video, 3:01, Japanese-language lab footage with on-screen text "コイルに電流を流すと磁力が発生する / この電磁石の原理で磁力をつくるよ" ("running current through a coil generates magnetic force / we make magnetic force using this electromagnet principle"), labeled 電流 (current) and 磁力 (magnetic force), from ISSP] 9:17 PM · Apr 22, 2025 · 24.4K Views 12 replies, 27 reposts, 239 likes, 68 bookmarks > QUOTED (self-reply thread): outside five sigma (@jwt0...) · Apr 22, 2025 > [実験映像#01「爆破実験 世界一強い磁場をつくる」/ 物性研](youtube.com/watch?v=7FO45_...)

outside five sigma (@jwt0625, 11h): "isolation bob, is that you?" [Diagram: precision-measurement apparatus schematic, labeled parts from top to bottom: "Isolation Platform" pointing to a "Collet" mounted through a surface, connected via "Silica Fiber" down to a small bulge labeled "Isolation Bob," then a "Silica Weld" connecting to a "Silica Disk." A red "Probe Laser" beam passes through the disk toward an "Electrostatic Exciter" and onward "To Readout."]
