Semi-analytic model for plasma production and Cherenkov radiation emission from hypervelocity impacts on soda-lime glass
Article
Full-text available
  • Jan 2023
A semi-analytic method is proposed to compute the produced plasma and the emitted Cherenkov radiation from hypervelocity impacts on soda-lime glass for various projectiles and impact velocities. First, the Taylor-von Neumann-Sedov blast wave model, coupled with the system of nonlinear Saha equations for multispecies, strongly coupled plasma, is ado...

... However, several instabilities are driven by electromagnetic wave phenomena that cannot be captured within the conventional MHD paradigm [2]. Among these, Cherenkov radiation is emitted when the particles' velocity exceeds the phase velocity of light in the plasma [3,4,5,6,7,8]. ...
