Abstract

The expansion of a laser-induced plasma plume into a non-reactive background gas is investigated theoretically using a Monte Carlo simulation. The method allows the description of the collective motion of both laser-ablated and background gas particles. The influence of the background gas pressure on the plume shape and on the ambient gas particles distribution within the plume of ejected matter is studied. The expansion dynamics under various ambient gas pressures and nature is also investigated.
