Abstract:The excitation of plasma waves by a short pulse of focused laser radiation is studied. Since the excitation of waves depends strongly on the pulse form, we described in detail its form and the conditions when the expression for the pulse field is applicable. Limitations on the pulse duration and the degree of laser radiation focusing are given. The basis for studying the excitation of plasma waves is the equation for potential electric fields. This equation describes the dispersion, weak damping due to collisi… Show more
