Interaction of Powerful Laser Radiation With Shell Targets

  • Chapter
Laser Interaction and Related Plasma Phenomena

Abstract

The up-to-date experiments with solid and shell targets have evidenced the existence of high compression of the substance in the center of the target1-7. The ultimate compression and temperature are caused by the mechanisms of absorption and conversion of high-power laser radiation energy to the plasma energy, by the dynamics and stability of compression, and the processes occuring in plasma corona 8-11.

Presented at the Fourth Workshop on “Laser Interaction and Related Plasma Phenomena”, held at RPI, Troy, New York, November 8–12, 1976.
