Abstract
The Richtmyer-Meshkov (RM) instability occurs on an initially perturbed interface subjecting to a sudden acceleration by a shock [2]. Due to the deposition of baroclinic vorticity, the initial perturbation will grow with time, which generally intensifies the mixing between fluids and eventually induces turbulence in flow. Because of its academic significance in vortex dynamics and turbulent mixing as well as wide applications ranging from inertial confinement fusion, supernova explosions to supersonic combustion, the hydrodynamic instability becomes increasingly attractive. Specifically, several comprehensive reviews on this topic have been made [1, 2, 3].
