Abstract
New phenomena of light scattering and Cherenkov generation peaking in the plane of polarization during direct writing with ultrashort light pulses in glass are observed. The phenomena are interpreted in terms of angular distribution of photoelectrons, anisotropic index fluctuations and anisotropic diffusion of photoelectrons induced by intense light pulses.
