A laser pulse from a transversely excited atmospheric (TEA) CO2 laser was sent into a test chamber with 68 kPa ambient pressure, focused 10 mm below the flight path of a conically nosed cylinder with a diameter of 10 mm. The pressure history, which was measured 150 mm below the flight path along the acoustic ray past the bubble, exhibited precursory pressure rise and round-off peak pressure, thereby demonstrating the proof-of-concept of sonic boom alleviation using energy deposition.}, pages = {051701--051701}, title = {Moderation of near-field pressure over a supersonic flight model using laserpulse energy deposition}, volume = {28}, year = {2016} }
