Figure 14
Effect of reheating CO2 pulse on spectrally integrated plasma images. The reheating laser impinges on the plasma from the lower right in this camera angle. The target is at the top of each image. The CO2 pulse arrives 100 ns after the Nd:YAG ablation pulse, with the ICCD gate set to 180 ns after the Nd:YAG pulse.
