Hydrodynamic Shock Wave Propagation after Electrical Breakdown
Laser schlieren measurements in l iquid dielectrics have been used to examine the radial expansion of both the acoustic shock wave and the conductive breakdown channel during the f i r s t few microseconds after electrical breakdown under high voltage impulse conditions. I t was found that the acoustic shock wave expands at a constant velocity while the expanding radius of the breakdown channel...
متن کاملMean free path effects in the shock-implosion problem
The effects of finite Knudsen number in the problem of a cylindrically imploding shock wave in a monatomic gas are investigated. Numerical solutions of the flow field are obtained with initial conditions in the ranges 1.25 M0 5 and 0.005 Kn0 0.1 using the direct simulation Monte Carlo method. Results show that as Kn0 decreases and M0 increases, the maximum implosion temperature scales increasin...
متن کاملProton radiography of a laser-driven implosion.
Protons accelerated by a picosecond laser pulse have been used to radiograph a 500 microm diameter capsule, imploded with 300 J of laser light in 6 symmetrically incident beams of wavelength 1.054 microm and pulse length 1 ns. Point projection proton backlighting was used to characterize the density gradients at discrete times through the implosion. Asymmetries were diagnosed both during the ea...
متن کاملRippled Quasiperpendicular Shock Observed by the Magnetospheric Multiscale Spacecraft.
Collisionless shock nonstationarity arising from microscale physics influences shock structure and particle acceleration mechanisms. Nonstationarity has been difficult to quantify due to the small spatial and temporal scales. We use the closely spaced (subgyroscale), high-time-resolution measurements from one rapid crossing of Earth's quasiperpendicular bow shock by the Magnetospheric Multiscal...
متن کاملObservation of strong oscillations of areal mass in an unsupported shock wave.
An experimental study of hydrodynamic perturbation evolution in a strong unsupported shock wave, which is immediately followed by an expansion wave, is reported. A planar solid plastic target rippled on the front side is irradiated with a 350-450 ps long laser pulse. The perturbation evolution in the target is observed using face-on monochromatic x-ray radiography during and for up to 4 ns afte...
