First demonstration of guiding of high-intensity laser pulses in a hydrogen-filled capillary discharge waveguide

The results of the first experiments to demonstrate guiding of high-intensity laser pulses through a hydrogen-filled capillary discharge waveguide are described. Measurements of the temporal behaviour during the discharge of both the pulse energy transmission and the transverse spatial profile of th...
