Sažetak
Laser-induced microscale vortex rings have been generated on vaporizing tantalum surface, and their reconnection was studied in the presence of shock waves on the nanosecond time scale. A rich spectrum of the ring structures was obtained, some of which have been observed for the first time. Qualitatively, three classes of interactions are distinguished on the basis of relative relation of the shock momentum Ps and momentum of the circulating fluid Pc: interactions in the presence of low momentum shock waves (Ps < Pc), of the shock waves with a momentum comparable to the momentum of the circulating fluid (Ps ≈ Pc) and of the shock waves with a momentum larger than momentum of the circulating fluid (Ps > Pc).
