Strongly localized, propagating plasma density structures that are capable of crossing magnetic field lines are known as "blobs." Here we demonstrate a novel mechanism for the formation and propagation of an ion gyroradius-scale blob-cavity structure at the interface between a super-Alfvénic laser-produced plasma (LPP) and an ambient magnetized plasma. The LPP self-focuses along the edge of the diamagnetic cavity which results in a dense, jetlike structure as compared to ballistic motion. This collimated flow couples momentum to the ambient plasma through a collisionless process known as Larmor coupling. The Larmor electric fields locally displace the ambient ions forming a blob above the LPP flow. In the region between a gyrating blob and collimated LPP flow, a secondary cavity of expelled magnetic field forms. These findings are supported by particle-in-cell simulations that replicate the blob formation mechanism and provide insight to similar processes in space, astrophysical, and laboratory settings characterized by ion kinetic scales.
