Abstract

Although much has been determined about the behavior of two-dimensional instabilities, no experimental evidence has previously been found for three-dimensional forms of this instability. This study demonstrates observations of a conical Kelvin-Helmholtz instability formed by the self-reflection of a conical shock wave. High-speed schlieren images were taken showing the existence of this phenomenon for a range of incident shock wave Mach numbers.
