Symmetry of spherically converging shock waves through reflection, relating to the shock ignition fusion energy scheme.
We examine the properties of perturbed spherically imploding shock waves in an ideal fluid through the collapse, bounce, and development into an outgoing shock wave. We find broad conservation of the size and shape of ingoing and outgoing perturbations when viewed at the same radius. The outgoing shock recovers the velocity of the unperturbed shock outside the strongly distorted core. The resul...
متن کاملUnsteady Flow in Vertical, Converging Tubes
INTRODUCTION The discharge ofliquids from vertical tubes with various con traction geometries was studied via the unsteady Bernoulli equa tion. The temporal variations of the exit velocity and fluid level in the tube were found from the numerical integration of nonlin ear differential equations. Sudden, quadratic, and exponential contraction geometries were considered. For inlet to exit area...
متن کاملReflection, Refraction and the Prism
Huygens’ principle can be used to determine various experimentally verifiable and predictable behavior of the path of light through any optical system. However, as seen in the chapter on Light, the Huygens wavefront construction can be become complicated, especially in systems with a large number of optical components. A simpler approach to track the behavior of light is based on the propagatio...
متن کاملReflection, refraction, and the Legendre transform.
We construct in dimension two a mirror that reflects collimated rays into a set of directions that amplify the image and an optical lens so that collimated rays are refracted into a set of directions with a prescribed magnification factor. The profiles of these optical surfaces are given by explicit formulas involving the Legendre transformation.
متن کاملReflection, Refraction, and Hamiltonian Monte Carlo
Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) is a successful approach for sampling from continuous densities. However, it has difficulty simulating Hamiltonian dynamics with non-smooth functions, leading to poor performance. This paper is motivated by the behavior of Hamiltonian dynamics in physical systems like optics. We introduce a modification of the Leapfrog discretization of Hamiltonian dynamics on piec...
