Notes:
We conducted a series of numerical experiments to study the propagation of laser-supported detonation waves (LSDWs) in the case that a CO2 laser beam strikes an aluminum surface obliquely in air. A reflected shock formed at the aluminum surface was more prominent at higher angles of incidence θ of the beam, but otherwise the hydrodynamics of the plasma and the LSDW were insensitive to θ. Furthermore, the total impulse delivered to the aluminum varied approximately as 1/cos θ, a result that can be modeled with elementary blast-wave theory.
