Abstract :
A modified B˙ circuit design has been implemented as part of a miniature magnetic probe array for the Coaxial Plasma Source experiment at the North Carolina State University. This facility is currently being used for the generation of energetic plasma flows to allow laboratory study of magnetogasdynamics with particular emphasis on the importance of the Hall effect to plasma transport in coaxial plasma sources
