商品描述
This open access book (Volume 2) is part of the series "The Physics of Laser Plasmas and Applications." It serves as an introduction to the physics of compressible hydrodynamics, which is used to describe the temporal evolution of plasmas generated by intense laser irradiation of solid surfaces. For the benefit of students and young researchers, the book presents the fundamental equations and provides a comprehensible explanation of solutions to intricate fluid phenomena. It builds upon the concept of plasma generation through the heating of matter via the classical absorption of a laser, as expounded in Volume 1. The high-temperature plasma resulting from the laser interaction manifests in diverse hydrodynamic occurrences like shock waves and expansion waves.
The initial sections of this book expound the essentials of compressible hydrodynamics, magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), and the physics of shock waves. The transfer of laser energy within an expanding plasma towards regions of higher density is achieved through electron and X-ray transport mechanisms. In both instances, conventional diffusion models prove inadequate, necessitating mathematical frameworks founded on the Boltzmann equation. The conveyed energy engenders ablation pressure, equivalent to tens of millions of atmospheres, on the solid surface. This pressure initiates powerful shock waves propagating through the solid material. The propagation of these shock waves is delineated for scenarios involving planar and spherical geometries. The text also introduces various solutions pertaining to convergent and divergent shocks in spherical geometries using self-similar models.
The discourse then shifts towards ionization and related atomic processes, which govern the dynamics of plasmas created by laser irradiation of mid-Z and high-Z solids. The quantum mechanics of partially ionized atoms and their associated atomic processes are elucidated. Concluding the book is an exploration of the physics of warm dense matter (WDM) - an electron system characterized by quantum-mechanical, many-body interactions. The study of high-density plasmas featuring temperatures around 1 eV is undertaken through the lens of density functional theory (DFT). The theoretical breakdown of experimental data acquired via the X-ray free electron laser (X-FEL) is also provided.
In essence, this second volume of the series amalgamates a comprehensive understanding of compressible hydrodynamics, shock wave physics, ionization processes, energy transfer, and the realm of warm dense matter. It equips readers to delve into the intricacies of plasma physics and laser interactions while utilizing modern theoretical frameworks and experimental methodologies.
This is an open access book.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本開放存取的書籍（第二卷）是「激光等離子體物理及應用」系列的一部分。它作為可壓縮流體力學的物理學介紹，用於描述由強烈激光照射固體表面所產生的等離子體的時間演變。為了幫助學生和年輕研究人員，本書呈現了基本方程式，並對複雜流體現象的解決方案提供了易於理解的解釋。它基於第一卷中闡述的通過激光的經典吸收加熱物質來產生等離子體的概念。由激光相互作用產生的高溫等離子體在衝擊波和膨脹波等多種流體動力學現象中表現出來。
本書的初始部分闡述了可壓縮流體力學、磁流體力學（MHD）和衝擊波物理的基本要素。激光能量在擴展的等離子體中向高密度區域的轉移是通過電子和X射線傳輸機制實現的。在這兩種情況下，傳統的擴散模型顯得不足，因此需要基於玻爾茲曼方程的數學框架。所傳遞的能量在固體表面產生相當於數千萬大氣壓的脫落壓力。這種壓力引發強大的衝擊波在固體材料中傳播。這些衝擊波的傳播在平面和球形幾何的情境中進行了描述。文本還介紹了使用自相似模型的球形幾何中收斂和發散衝擊的各種解決方案。
接下來的討論轉向電離及相關的原子過程，這些過程支配著由中等原子序數（mid-Z）和高原子序數（high-Z）固體的激光照射所產生的等離子體的動力學。部分電離原子的量子力學及其相關的原子過程得到了闡明。本書的結尾探討了溫暖密集物質（WDM）的物理學——這是一個以量子力學多體相互作用為特徵的電子系統。通過密度泛函理論（DFT）來研究高密度等離子體，其特徵是約1 eV的溫度。還提供了通過X射線自由電子激光（X-FEL）獲得的實驗數據的理論分析。
總之，這一系列的第二卷綜合了對可壓縮流體力學、衝擊波物理、電離過程、能量轉移和溫暖密集物質領域的全面理解。它使讀者能夠深入探討等離子體物理和激光相互作用的複雜性，同時利用現代理論框架和實驗方法。
這是一本開放存取的書籍。
