Parametric heating of a dense arc plasma with 0.337 mm laser radiation

Creators

Description

The threshold intensity of 0.337 mm laser radiation for excitation of the parametric decay instability in a helium arc plasma at 4.0 eV is computed. The plasma density gradient reduces the intensity required from the laser by a factor of 16.
