Abstract

The gasdynamical properties of the plasma plume were studied by measuring the recoil impulse transferred onto the solid target using a ballistic pendulum constructed based on the principle of a balanced compound pendulum suspended around a horizontal point contact. The pendulum was contained in a vacuum chamber to allow measurement with different background gases in the range 10^-2 to 10³ mbar. Experimental results include measurements of the (integrated) recoil impulse as a function of buffer gas pressure and density.
