REXCO simulations of contained and free-jet mercury targets - CERN ACOL project. Simulation predicts unreasonable negative density (pressure) waves and this leads us to doubt the predicted expansion of the free jet at ~103 ms-1.
1 kJ of beam energy deposited at time zero. Target length: 50 mm Beam radius (uniform density) 0.5 mm
