Description
The multiple filamentation over very long propagation distances ~ 100 m was measured for peak pulse power exceeding the critical value for λ=248-nm radiation (~108 W) in 2000 times. An all-reflection mirror focusing scheme with a small numerical aperture of about 3 10-4 was designed. The intensity distribution was recorded by using glass plate fluorescence under UV irradiation with imaging at the time-gated CCD. It was found that the filamentation of high-power UV laser beam is quite different of longer wavelengths.
