Description

The impact of the high intensity laser beam on a solid surface generates a high temperature plasma. Its flow is studied when the absorption regime is linear or is dominated by the instabilities or the beam pressure effects. Different flow structures are described

Abstract (French)

L'impact d'un rayonnement laser de forte intensite sur une surface solide cree un plasma de haute temperature. On en etudie le mouvement lorsque le regime d'absorption est lineaire ou au contraire domine par des instabilites ou des effets de pression de rayonnement. Differentes structures d'ecoulement sont decrites
