Transient magnetized plasma as an optical element for high power laser pulses
Underdense plasma produced in gas jets by low intensity laser prepulses in the presence of a static magnetic field, B∼0.3 T, is shown experimentally to become an optical element allowing steering of tightly focused high power femtosecond laser pulses within several degrees along with essential enha...
