Interferometric analysis of laser-driven cylindrically focusing shock waves in a thin liquid layer

Abstract Shock waves in condensed matter are of great importance for many areas of science and technology ranging from inertially confined fusion to planetary science and medicine. In laboratory studies of shock waves, there is a need in developing diagnostic techniques capable of measuring paramete...
