Figure 4
The intermediate to long time scale (up to 400 µs) evolution of the gas density on the beam axis (r = 0) at different z locations as color-coded by the temperature in K. The modulation of the density superposing on the gradual recovering towards the asymptote is the result of the shock waves transporting gas particles away from and back to the beam axis.
