Time-Dependent Propagation of High-Energy Laser Beams Through the Atmosphere" II*
نویسنده
چکیده
Various factors that can effect thermal blooming in stagnation zone situations are examined, including stagnation-zone motion, longitudinal air motion in the neighborhood of the stagnation zone, and the effects o f scenario noncoplanarity. O f these effects, only the last offers reasonable hope o f reducing the strong thermal blooming that normally accompanies stagnation zones; in particular, noncoplanarity should benefit multipulse more than cw beams. The methods of treating nonhorizontal winds hydrodynamically for cw and multipulse steady-state sources are discussed. Aspects of pulse "self-blooming" are also considered.

متن کامل2.C Raman Scattering of High-Power Lasers in Air
Inertial-confinement lascr fusion requires propagation of high-intensity, pulseshaped IR and UV laser beams through long air paths. Such beams are subject to losses and decreased beam quality because of stimulated rotational Raman scattering (SRRS) in the atmosphere. With short pulses, it is necessary to use transient Raman theory to include buildup and relaxation of the mcdium. Imperfect beam ...

One of the interesting Laser-Plasma phenomena, when the laser power is high and ultra intense, is the generation of large amplitude plasma waves (Wakefield) and electron acceleration. An intense electromagnetic laser pulse can create plasma oscillations through the action of the nonlinear pondermotive force. electrons trapped in the wake can be accelerated to high energies, more than 1 TW. Of t...

Propagation of stochastic electromagnetic beams through paraxial ABCD optical systems operating through turbulent atmosphere is investigated with the help of the ABCD matrices and the generalized Huygens-Fresnel integral. In particular, the analytic formula is derived for the cross-spectral density matrix of an electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model (EGSM) beam. We applied our analysis for the A...
