If enough energy is deposited, the local increase of temperature can also vaporize a part of Let's describe now  the surface of the medium \cite{scruby1990laser}. other regime.  Solving equation \ref{eq:eqChaleurApprox} with same experimental parameters as before but a laser energy of 200 mJ, we find a maximum increase of temperature of 60 K, which leads to giving  a maximum temperature of about 298+60 $\approx$  360 K. While slightly below to the vaporization point of our medium, supposed close to 373K (water vaporization temperature), it can bebe  sufficient to vaporize the medium; Moreover, medium, as  it has been demonstrated that the presence of small particles like the graphite particlesin our medium  acts as nucleation sites for vaporization, which and  facilitate thus  the vaporization of the medium at lower temperature \cite{Alimpiev_1995}. Vaporization of the  particles leads by reaction to displacements inside the medium, which can create generate then  shear waves: this constitutes the \textit{ablative regime}. To describe this vaporization, regime,  we suppose the medium as homogeneous and isotropic. isotropic, and we adopt again a 1-D model.  The stress $\sigma_{zz}$ is, similarly to the previous section, the sum of the P-wave modulus axial strain component  and a term given by the second law of motion \cite{scruby1990laser}: representing the ejection of particles outside the medium when they each vaporization point \cite{ready1971effects}:  \begin{equation}   \sigma_{zz} = (\lambda + 2 \mu) \frac{\partial u_z}{\partial z} - \frac{1}{\rho}\frac{I^2}{(L+C(T_V-T_0))^2}  \label{eq:stressAbla}  \end{equation} where $L$ is the latent heat required to vaporize the solid, $T_0$ and $T_V$ the initial and vaporization temperatures.  The By assuming again that $\mu \ll \lambda$, the  stress leads to a displacement $u_z$:\begin{equation}  u_z = \frac{\zeta}{\rho (\lambda + 2 \mu)}\frac{I^2}{(L+C(T_V-T_0))^2}  \label{eq:deplAbla}  \end{equation}  As in a biological soft tissues, $\mu \ll \lambda$, the displacement can be approximated as:  \begin{equation}  u_z = \frac{\zeta}{\rho \lambda}\frac{I^2}{(L+C(T_V-T_0))^2}  \label{eq:deplAblaApprox}  \end{equation}  Using high-energy experimental parameter, $\zeta \approx \gamma^{-1} = 40 \mu$m (average depth of absorption), $\lambda$ = 2 GPa (first Lamé's coefficient of water), $L$ = 2.2 MJ.kg$^{-1}$ (vaporization latent heat of water) and $T_V-T_0$ = 373-293 373-298  = 80 75  K, we obtain a displacement $u_z$ approximately equal to 3.1 2.9  $\mu$m. This is quite close to the experimental measured displacement (2.5 $\mu$m). To calculate the propagation of the displacement along space and time, we modeled the ablation regime as a point force directed along Z direction with a depth of 50 $\mu$m and increasing linearly from -2.5 to 0 mm and decreasing symmetrically from 0 to 2.5 mm. The magnitude of the force is stored in a matrix $H_z^{abla}(x,y,z,t)$.  Propagation as a shear wave was calculated using Green operators $G_{zz}$ \cite{aki1980quantitative}: \begin{equation}  G_{zz}(r,\theta,z,t) = \frac{\cos^2 \theta}{4\pi \rho c_p^2 r} f(t-\frac{r}{c_p}) + \frac{\sin^2 \theta}{4\pi \rho c_s^2 r} f(t-\frac{r}{c_s}) + \frac{3\cos^2 \theta-1}{4\pi \rho r^3} \int_{r/c_p}^{r/c_s}{\tau f_{NF}(t)dt}  \label{eq:Gzz} 

Using same values for the physical quantities as previously, results are illustrated in Figure \ref{figGreen}-(B) which represents displacement maps along Z axis, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 ms after force application. The displacement maps present many similarities with the experimental results of the Figure \ref{Figure2}: initial displacement is directed inside the medium and only two half cycles are propagating.  Ablation regime has also confirmed visually: at high power, a disk of paler color of the same size as the beam diameter appears at the impact location of the laser on the phantom, which is coherent to consistent with  a vaporization of a fraction of the material. This was not observed in the low-energy experiments.
