Highly collimated magnetic jets appear to play a fundamental but poorly understood role in many astrophysical processes, such as young stellar objects, active galactic nuclei, and gamma ray bursts, but have been difficult to recreate in labs. In this talk I discuss a recent experiment by a team including my advisor, Dr. Edison Liang, which demonstrated the creation of magnetized collimated plasma jets, by irradiating a plastic target with a ring of OMEGA lasers. I will then discuss an upcoming experiment by the same team, where two opposing plasma jets are to be generated using the same method, in order to study the resultant collision and shock formation. I then discuss the motivation for running simulations of this upcoming experimental setup, with a variety of different initial parameters, and present results from the simulation variations that I have run over the previous semester.
