Problem of propagation of an optical discharge near a target
- 1. Institute of General Physics, Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Moscow
Description
Two-exposure holographic interferometry was used to study the early stages of evolution of a laser plasma near a target as a function of the residual gas (argon and helium) pressures. The distributions of the electron density were calculated and the pressure ''breakdown'' thresholds were determined for laser intensities of approx.1011 W/cm2. The conditions for propagation of an optical discharge near a target were analyzed
