Introduction
The shock-accelerated inhomogeneous flows have been widely investigated for the fundamental interests and diverse applications in a broad range of spatial, temporal and energy scales, such as the supernova explosions, supersonic combustions and inertial confinement fusion (ICF) implosions. The particularly simple configuration, the shock-bubble interaction [1], has been considered as a basic configuration to study the flows. With respect to the development of the density-stratified interface impulsively accelerated by a shock wave, analogies may be drawn to the study of the Richtmyer-Meshkov (RM) instability [2, 3].
