Explosion of water droplets

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We use self-similarity to describe the motion of vapor emanating from a water droplet that has been exploded by a short pulse from a high energy laser. This approach allows us to obtain a qualitative description of the experiment of Kafalas and Herrmann.
