Examples of supersonic

supersonic
Supersonic ionization wave driven by radiation transport in a short-pulse laser-produced plasma.
This appears reasonable and necessary since the jet flow is supersonic.
Synthesis and processing of silicon nanocrystallites using a pulsed laser ablation supersonic expansion method.
These curves correspond to having the ablation target in the cluster source about 1.5 m from the exit of the supersonic nozzle.
The flows involved in the penetration are supersonic, and therefore the conservation feature of a numerical scheme is very important.
The minimum radius obtained from the rotational solution is larger than obtained from the irrotational solution, even further narrowing the supersonic region of the vortex.
Neglect of disturbances that are supersonic relative to the free stream, for instance, would have to be justified.
Supersonic propagation of an ionization front in low density foam targets driven by thermal radiation.
Therefore, the investigation of supersonic plasma jets production in laboratory conditions becomes a fundamental issue in both the astrophysical and the inertial confinement fusion contexts.
The existence of classical solutions is proved for "weakly supersonic" quantum flows.
However, this condition is not exclusively a supersonic one, since it can also be met if the ion flows are individually subsonic.
The grey zone highlights the supersonic regime, the white zone indicates the subsonic region.
The supersonic region of a vortex is, therefore, restricted to an annulus not much wider than the diameter of the driving cylinder.
An extensive study of the flows due to supersonic jets impinging on flat plates has been conducted.
Of course, eigensolutions still exist for the supersonic problem, but none of them are physically acceptable.
