Nonlinear diffusive shock acceleration of cosmic rays: quasi-thermal and non-thermal particle distributions
Diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) of particles at collisionless shocks is the major accepted paradigm about the origin of cosmic rays (CRs). As a...

Shock Initiation
This chapter describes the overview of experiments and numerical simulation for shock initiation, and the studies on the shock initiation in Japan.... -
Perspectives on Shock Chemistry
This chapter gives perspectives in the future shock chemistry. Shock compression provides only the path along the Hugoniot where temperature... -
Calculations of Compression of a Spherical Layered System by Shock Waves Taking into Account the Transfer of Thermal Radiation in the Kinetic Model
AbstractAt present, numerical simulation is the main, and often the only, tool for detailed description of some physical phenomena in the study of...

Thermal Processes in Supernova Remnants
This chapter provides a theoretical overview of thermal processes in supernova remnants (SNRs), which can be understood as a series of energy... -
Mathematical Model of Shock-Induced Chemical Reactions
A macroscopic mathematical model of shock-induced chemical reactions in reactive powders (Al/S) has been developed. The model includes the... -
Dynamic Buckling of Functionally Graded Plates and Shells Subjected to Thermal Shock
In this work, the nonlinear dynamic response of suddenly heated functionally graded shells is studied through nonlinear transient analysis. To this... -
Dynamic Behavior of Graphite Electrode Under the Thermal Shock of the Pulsed Arc
The thermal shock of the arc is the main cause of electrode damage in the spark gap switch, reducing the reliability of the switch. In this paper, we... -
Investigation on Computational, Hirshfeld, Surface Morphology, Thermal, Shock Damage Threshold, and Phase Matching Properties of an Iminodiacetic Acid Single Crystal for Second Harmonic Generation
A transparent iminodiacetic acid single crystal was grown via a slow evaporation solution growth technique. Its intermolecular interaction was...

Shock Melting and Degassing Reactions
This chapter describes melting, degassing, and decomposition reactions. Melting occurs along the Hugoniot curve when it crosses the melting curve at... -
Shock Waves and Ablation Dynamics
When an intense laser is irradiated on a solid target, the laser energy is absorbed on the surface so that the material becomes plasma to expand into... -
Thermal Processes in Supernova Remnants
This chapter provides a theoretical overview of thermal processes in supernova remnants (SNRs), which can be understood as a series of energy... -
Shock Metamorphism and High-Pressure Phases in Meteorites
Hypervelocity impact events have been recognized as the form of impact craters on the Earth and planetary surfaces when extraterrestrial materials... -
History and Background: Shock Wave, Historical Background, and Compression Process
This chapter summarizes briefly the characteristics of shock wave, the thermodynamics of shock process, and the applications of shock compression.... -
Registration of Nonstationary Heat Flux Dynamics in Shock Tunnels Using High-Speed Thermography
AbstractThe present work demonstrates the possibility of contactless registration of changes in the thermal radiation of the metal outer surfaces of...
