Laser Phasography of Jets, Shocks and Plasmas

Herman M. Presby

4.9/5 (16125 ratings)

Description:The phase-contrast microscope of Zernike may be scaled in size and combined with 'giant pulse' ruby-laser illumination to make possible the observation of macroscopic moving tenuous objects, such as jets, shock waves and plasmas. The resulting instrument, referred to as the Laser Phase Macroscope (L.P.M.), has performance similar to that of an optical interferometer operated in the single-fringe mode. The operation of the phase macroscope is treated theoretically, first heuristically and then by diffraction integrals. Conditions for optimum imaging are derived. The 'phase plate' of Zernike is modified for use with focused laser illumination, and parameters for optimum imaging are given. Quite different mirrors are required for the full range of interesting plasmas accessible to the L.P.M. The experimental model is described. Phasograms of weak and strong shocks in air and argon down to .5 mm Hg pressure are shown. Rayleigh-Taylor instability behind the shock is observed. Gas jets of various refractivities are also used as test objects. Phasograms of vacuum sparks producing jets of ablated electrode material are shown. Many objects studied are invisible to schlieren photography using the same illumination and optics. (Author).We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
