Conclusions
1. It is observed that the splash begins at the bottom of jet and ends at the top of jet, which is consistent with the beam trajectory. This breakup could be the by-product of cavitation caused by the energy deposition of the proton beam.
2. The extent of the Hg jet breakup is influenced by the magnetic induction field. • The splash velocity increases as the beam intensity increases,
however, the magnetic induction field reduces the effect.• The extent of the Hg jet disruption length is suppressed by the magnetic induction field.
3. The 24GeV proton beam results in greater disruption length than the 14GeV proton beam. The intensity threshold for the 24GeV beam is lower than the 14GeV beam.
4. The magnetic induction field stabilizes the Hg jet flow. The fluctuations on the jet surface decreases as the magnetic induction field increases.
5. The jet size increases as it moves to downstream and it was same up to 10T but increases at 15T. The jet size at 10T was smaller than at 15T, which might be a result of B field induced elliptical distortion.
6. The longitudinal Hg jet velocity was not significantly affected by the magnetic induction field.
