This study examines the pressure exerted by a cavitation bubble collapsing near a rigid wall. A laser-generated bubble in a water basin undergoes growth, collapse, second growth, and final collapse. Shock waves and liquid jets from…
Craters form as the lander's exhaust interacts with the planetary surfaces. Understanding this phenomenon is imperative to ensure safe landings. We investigate crater morphology, where a turbulent air jet impinges on the granular surfaces.…
It is extremely uncommon to be able to predict the velocity profile of a turbulent flow. In two-dimensional flows, atmosphere dynamics, and plasma physics, large scale coherent jets are created through inverse energy transfers from small…

When a liquid jet plunges into a pool, it can generate a bubble-laden jet flow underneath the surface. This common and simple phenomenon is investigated experimentally for circular jets to illustrate and quantify the role played by the net…
The breakup of a fluid jet into droplets has long fascinated natural scientists, with early research dating back to the 19th century. Infinitesimal perturbations to a jet grow because of surface tension, which eventually leads to breakup of…
We report on singular jets in a free-falling liquid tin droplet following nanosecond laser-pulse impact. Following impact, the droplet (with diameter $D_0=50$ or 70\,$\mu$m) undergoes rapid radial expansion and subsequent retraction,…
In this study, we systematically investigate the behaviors of viscoelastic liquid jets using an impulsive force, particularly in the high velocity and high elasticity regimes. The resulting jets are categorized into two types: (i) pinch-off…

A fluid jet with a finite angular velocity is subject to centripetal forces in addition to surface tension forces. At fixed angular momentum, centripetal forces become large when the radius of the jet goes to zero. We study the possible…
Relativistic jets are ubiquitous in astrophysical systems that contain compact objects. They transport large amounts of energy to large distances from the source, and their interaction with the ambient medium has a crucial effect on the…
Molecular jets are seen coming from the youngest protostars in the early phase of low-mass star formation. They are detected in CO, SiO, and SO at (sub)millimeter wavelengths down to the innermost regions, where their associated protostars…
Instabilities in free surface continuous jets of non-Newtonian fluids, although relevant for many industrial processes, remain less well understood in terms of fundamental fluid dynamics. Inviscid, and viscous Newtonian jets have been…
