Laser-driven double shock loading and diagnosis technology for material ejection from surface

The physics of shock-induced ejection is a crucial phenomenon in the field of shock compression science and technology. Limited by loading methods, the previous research primarily focused on the physics of ejecta induced by single shockwave, with few data available on multiple shockwave loading conditions. To solve this problem, we proposed a double shockwave production method based on the high-intensity laser facility, which allows the interval time between the shock waves to be adjusted in the nanosecond to microsecond timescale. Meanwhile, we applied loading techniques to study the ejection behavior of metal tin and integrated photonic doppler velocimetry and high-energy x-ray radiography technology to observe the ejection process. By comparing the experimental results for single and double shockwave, the multiple shock-induced ejection features have been clearly confirmed. Our experimental results provide valuable insight into the behavior of ejecta under multiple shockwave loading conditions, which is of great significance for deepening our understanding of the ejection mechanism.
