Pinch formation and the zippering effect in laser-triggered discharge plasma under various electrode separations

In applying a laser-triggered discharge-produced plasma (LT-DPP) as a light source, the most important issues are the supply of fuel and the suppression of a large-scale nonuniformity called the zippering effect. This paper reports pinch formation in LT-DPP under various electrode separations from 4...
