Creation of persistent, straight, 2 mm long laser driven channels in underdense plasmas
The experimental study of the behavior of deuterium plasma with densities between 2× 1018 and 2× 1020 cm-3, subjected to a 6 TW, 30 ps, 3× 1018 W cm-2 laser pulse, is presented. Conclusive experimental proof that a single straight channel is generated when the laser pulse interacts with the lowest d...
