Caption: Fig. 3.

Another example of a laboratory hypersonic jet, generated on the Nova laser in a slightly different manner. (a) Experimental configuration for launching the jet, using the Nova laser. (b) Example of an in‐flight radiograph of the jet at ~15 ns. The proximity of the Al jet tip to the bow shock in CH is a signature of high Mach number, ﹩M\sim 10﹩ (see Foster et al. 1998).
