The paper presents a review of publications that describe the laser-induced formation
of supercritical water (SCW) and discusses methods for monitoring these fast
processes. The formation of SCW can occur as a result of both pulsed and continuous
laser irradiation. The primary act in this process is the absorption of laser energy with
the transition to heat and/or pressure impulse. Such absorption can occur in pure
water, in some targets or in various absorbers in water, for example, metal or carbon
nanoparticles. It is shown that laser methods are effective for forming SCW, and its
contribution to the mechanism of action under various laser technologies should be
taken into account, since its influence on the processes taking place is often prevalent.
