O. Iwase et al., Laser-produced plasma diagnostics by a combination of Schlieren method andMach-Zehnder interferometry, PHYS SCR, 58(6), 1998, pp. 634-635
An optical method for laser-produced plasma diagnostics, for which a crucia
l study is a shock-wave phenomena, is newly suggested as a combination of t
he well-known Schlieren method to study shock-wave phenomena and Mach-Zehnd
er interferometry for evaluating the electron density.
