Abstract
An elongated plasma of length ≈8 mm with an aspect ratio of ~6:1 has been formed by channeling a laser-produced plasma created in a point focus on a carbon surface. Densities of C6+ ions near 1016 cm−3 were observed in a contracted region beyond the guiding channel, suggesting a use for short-wavelength amplification.
