Abstract
Under the constraint condition of spherically symmetrical shock wave transm itting in free space, a laser plasma shock wave transmission formula at med iate and far field is given. The calculated results agree very well with th e experimental data measured with a pin PZT ultrasonic transducer. The shoc k wave was generated by a Nd:YAG laser operated at 10-110 mJ in energy, 15 ns in full width at half maximum and 1.06 mu m in wave length.
