Abstract

The structure of current sheets created under laboratory conditions is characterized by a large variety, which depends substantially on the conditions under which the sheet if formed. In this work, we present the results of an experimental study of the structure and evolution of current sheets that were formed in magnetic configurations with a singular line of the X type. It has been shown that the change in the transverse magnetic field gradient, the strength of the longitudinal magnetic field, and the mass of the ions in plasma makes it possible to significantly vary the main parameters of the current sheets. This offers the challenges of using laboratory experimental results for analyzing and simulating the cosmophysical processes.
