Modeling of Nonlinear Optical Response in Gaseous Media and its Comparison with Experiment

This thesis demonstrates the model and application of nonlinear optical response with Metastable Electronic State Approach (MESA) in ultrashort laser propagation and verifies accuracy of MESA through extensive comparison with experimental data. The MESA is developed from quantum mechanics to descr...
