The development and characterisation of a laser driven flyer system
A system for the launch of hypervelocity miniature flyer plates has been developed, characterised and applied. A laser-induced plasma is used to drive flyers, typically 5 μm thick and less than 1 mm in diameter, at velocities of a few km/s. Chapter III discusses the implementation of a fibre optic s...
