Journal of Russian Laser Research Aims and scope

Abstract

We present the results of computational and theoretical studies of the shock wave generation due to the laser ablation acting on multilayer flat targets. We develop an analytical model for calculating the thermodynamic parameters of a substance behind the front of a shock wave passing through the contact discontinuity of two media while the shock wave is propagating from a low-density substance into the dense one. The effect of a vacuum gap separating low-density and large-density layers on the thermodynamic parameters of shock wave in a dense substance is also studied. The research results are compared with the experimental data.
