The fourth MARZ shot is a success

Jack, Rishabh, and Lansing travelled to Albuquerque NM to carry out the fourth Magnetic Reconnection on Z (MARZ) shot. We fielded new diagnostics including laser imaging and streaked shadowgraphy, as well as redesigned visible spectroscopy and outflow inductive probes. The shot was very successful, and we look forward to sharing the results with you at a conference soon!

Jack, Rishabh and Lansing took a well deserved break on Thursday to hike along the Sandia ridge, with great views down over Albuquerque.
