New diagnostics of laser generated shocks
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 February 2013
Abstract
Strongly radiative shocks are characterized by an ionization front induced by the shock wave. The role played together by opacity and geometry is critical for the physics of these shock waves. Moreover, radiation is an obvious way of probing these shock waves, either by self-emission or by probe absorption. These aspects will be illustrated by recent experimental results obtained at the iodine PALS (Prague Asterix Laser System) facility.
