Triggering, guiding and deviation of long spark discharges with femtosecond laser filament

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We show for the first time that filaments are able to divert electric discharges from their normal path. Comparison between negative and positive discharge polarities reveals important differences in the guiding mechanism.
