Density shocks in the relativistic expansion of highly charged one component plasmas

In a previous paper we showed that dynamical density shocks occur in the nonrelativistic expansion of dense single component plasmas relevant to ultrafast electron microscopy; and we showed that fluid models capture these effects accurately. We show that the nonrelativistic decoupling of the relativ...
