There is interest in efficient conversion of high power laser radiation into kinetic energy of a gas flow for some applications. Inverse Bremsstrahlung (IB) offers the advantage of spectral continuum absorption along with the rapid conversion of the absorbed energy into translational modes. However, IB is effective only when sufficient ionization is present. Hence, some mechanism must be operative at low temperatures to create and multiply an initial electron concentration. Seeding a gas flow with particulates is one such approach. Particulates absorb laser radiation and then thermally conduct heat to the surrounding gas. The effect of particulate seeding on the steady structure of ionized gas flows driven by a high power laser is investigated.
