• Laser-induced water condensation in air (2010, unknown): “Furthermore, we can exclude direct contribution of the filament plasma to the LIDAR signal, because the lifetime of the plasma generated by the filaments does not exceed the microsecond timescale, well below the millisecond interval between the pump and the probe pulses”
• Ultrashort filaments of light in weakly ionized, optically transparent media (2006, methodology): “Typically, the recombination function in gases has a quadratic dependency on ρ, so that f(ρ) = βrecombρ 2 with βrecomb[cm 3/s] ∼ 2× 10−8 at electron temperatures Te = 1 eV (Mlejnek et al., 1998a; Sprangle et al., 2002; Tzortzakis et al., 2000b).”
