Shockwave from Explosion

"In physics, a shock wave, or shock, is a type of propagating disturbance that moves faster than the local speed of sound in the medium. Like an ordinary wave, a shock wave carries energy and can propagate through a medium but is characterized by an abrupt, nearly discontinuous, change in pressure, temperature, and density of the medium." - Wiki 2-27-2023
In this video, a m1000 is exploded and characterized in a Z-schlieren optical configuration with 6 inch Edmund parabolic mirrors. Red and blue color filters were deployed at the focal point of the Z-system to paint (i.e., filter) the photons divergent from collimation due to the refractive index gradient induced by shockwave generation. Predicting the position/extent of the beam divergence was empirically determined.
Images captured at 75000 fps at 1280 x 800 with a 1 microsecond exposure time. All done with the phantom TMX 7510.

Hey Rogue! Would love to talk to you about this camera, the TMX 7510, if you have some time!
