Example of a laboratory high Mach number jet. (a) Experimental configuration for launching the hypervelocity jet, using the Nova laser. (b) Example of an in‐flight, hard X‐ray radiograph of the jet at ~40 ns. (c) Corresponding result from a simulation with the two‐dimensional radiation hydrodynamics code CALE (see Logory et al. 1999).
