Magnetic effects in astrophysically relevant laboratory plasmas

Astrophysics typically uses observation, theory and simulation to further the understanding of the cosmos. By using high power lasers, scaled astrophysical events can be created in the laboratory. This thesis describes laboratory results based on two different astrophysical phenomena, particle accel...
