TL;DR
This paper investigates how laser pulses impact highly absorbing liquid drops, causing acceleration, deformation, and fragmentation, with associated shock waves, matter ejection, and plasma formation, revealing complex fluid and plasma dynamics.
Contribution
It introduces a detailed analysis of laser-induced effects on liquid drops, highlighting new insights into the violent response mechanisms and associated phenomena.
Findings
Laser pulses cause rapid acceleration and deformation of drops.
Fragmentation occurs due to laser-induced shock waves and plasma formation.
The process involves complex fluid and plasma interactions.
Abstract
The impact of a laser pulse on a highly absorbing liquid drop can lead to a violent response: the drop is accelerated, strongly deforms, and eventually fragments. Shock waves, the ejection of matter, and even plasma formation can accompany this process ...
