Self-similar expansion of laser plasmas with nonlocal heat flux
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 09 March 2009
Abstract
A previous hydrodynamic model of the expansion of a laser-produced plasma, using classical (Spitzer) heat flux, is reconsidered with a nonlocal heat flux model. The nonlocal law is shown to be valid beyond the range of validity of the classical law, breaking down ultimately, however, in agreement with recent predictions.
