These structures are envisioned to extend to very low density and distant plasma regions up to where they can be disrupted by encountering plasma patches where the waves, of which the structures are composed, become dissipated. By now experimental observations and analyses of the morphology of jets have found that they can involve double-helix magnetic topologies in one case and, more recently, a single helix in other cases. Thus, plasma structures originating in the plasmas surrounding binary systems are proposed, instead of particle beams emitted by black holes directly, as a possible explanation of the origin of the highly collimated jets associated with a variety of celestial objects that are currently observed. Theoretically, double-helix structures are found to emerge as non-linearly coupled torsional ion-sound waves which, in the presence of a background magnetic field, in both the formation and terminal plasmas generate helical magnetic field configurations while remaining nearly “electrostatic” in regions where no significant background magnetic field is present. These (helical) structures can propagate independently in either of the two vertical directions. The coupling involves Intrinsic Gravitational Modes originating in the circumbinary disk and Inner Gravitational Fluctuations emerging from the Swept (Toroidal) Regions carved, within the highest density plasma region, by one or both Black Holes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100558,"journal":{"name":"Fundamental Plasma Physics","volume":"4 ","pages":"Article 100007"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50203975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They are found in many astrophysical contexts, spanning several decades in energy and size, suggesting operation of an underlying scale-invariant mechanism. Similar phenomena observed in laboratory plasmas are often studied as surrogate models for astrophysical jets under the conjecture that the scale-invariance of that as-yet-unconfirmed mechanism continues to hold down to laboratory spatial and energy scales. The plasma focus is one such laboratory plasma device which offers the advantage of diagnostic accessibility at a relatively modest resource cost. The present paper uses the plasma focus to address one of the intriguing aspects of the astrophysical jet phenomenon. Theoretical models of astrophysical jets require presence of a poloidal magnetic flux but there is no observational basis for assuming its existence. Indeed, there is a fundamental theoretical impossibility of existence of poloidal magnetic flux in the natural symmetry of the jet phenomena about its axis in the context of magnetohydrodynamics. The next best evidence in support of the poloidal magnetic flux hypothesis of such theoretical models would be to look for it in surrogate experimental simulations of astrophysical jets. In this context, this paper demonstrates a new diagnostic method for detection of poloidal magnetic flux emission from a plasma focus. The results indicate that poloidal magnetic flux continues to be emitted even after the disruption of the plasma focus pinch phase and shows evidence of its being decoupled from the externally supplied discharge current. This observation is interpreted along with previous knowledgebase in terms of a conjecture regarding the scale-invariant mechanism that might also be involved in astrophysical jet phenomena.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100558,"journal":{"name":"Fundamental Plasma Physics","volume":"4 ","pages":"Article 100012"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50203973","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
