Description
Summary:	Properties of compressible flows in the quasi‐stationary plasma accelerator have been studied in the presence of an additional longitudinal magnetic field and the arising rotation of plasma flow. Numerical study was carried out within the framework of two‐dimensional magnetic hydrodynamics (MHD) model of the axisymmetric plasma flows taking into account the finite conductivity of medium and radiation transport. Dynamics of compressible plasma flows is accompanied by the MHD dynamo effect or generation of magnetic field on a conical shock wave forming at the outlet from the accelerator.
