Anisotropic emission of neutral atoms: evidence of an anisotropic Rydberg sheath in nanoplasma

Intense laser-produced plasma is a complex amalgam of ions, electrons and atoms both in ground and excited states. Little is known about the spatial composition of the excited states that are an integral part of most gaseous or cluster plasma. In cluster-plasma, Rydberg excitations change the charge...
