Cluster Model of Nanoparticle and Meso-Object Formation in Shock Waves in Heavy Metals and under Emissions from Their Surface

Аннотация

Using the cluster model, we have calculated the most probable, average, and maximum possible sizes of nanoparticles and meso-objects formed in the processes of shock-induced restructuring of the microstructure of heavy metals and during subsequent emissions of particles from the surface of macroscopic samples near the lattice defects. The proposed model relates to the full range of characteristic sizes of the studied nano- and meso-objects from ~1 nm to ~370 μm.
