摘要

Results of investigations of the temporal, spectral, and energetic characteristics of acoustic pulses from laser breakdown on a solid aerosol particle are systematized. It is shown that the acoustic pulse has the form of a shock N-wave, the amplitude of the negative half-period of which decreases with increasing solid aerosol particle size, and the acoustic pulse duration at half maximum of the negative (rarefaction) half-period increases compared to the positive (compression) half-period. When the laser energy density QL exceeds 10 J/cm2, the acoustic energy Wac increases exponentially with QL. The rate of increase of Wac slows down due to the threshold character of laser breakdown initiation.
