OPTICAL IONIZATION AND HEATING OF GASES BY INTENSE PICOSECOND KRF LASER-RADIATION
We report on multiphoton ionization experiments using picosecond (ps) and sub-ps W-laser radiation at focused intensities up to 10(18) W/cm(2). The experiments are concerned with determining the electron temperature of optically ionized gases produced by intense KrF lasers. Thomson scattering, stimu...
