Universal long-wavelength nonlinear optical response of noble gases
M. Kolesik, E. M. Wright
We demonstrate numerically that the long-wavelength nonlinear dipole moment and ionization rate versus electric field strength for different noble gases can be scaled onto each…
Bound electron nonlinearity beyond the ionization threshold
J. K. Wahlstrand, S. Zahedpour, A. Bahl +2
Although high field laser-induced ionization is a fundamental process underlying many applications, there have been no absolute measurements of the nonlinear polarizability of atom…
Space-time resolved simulation of femtosecond nonlinear light-matter interactions using a holistic quantum atomic model: Application to near-threshold harmonics
M. Kolesik, E. M. Wright, J. Andreasen +3
We introduce a new computational approach for femtosecond pulse propagation in the transparency region of gases that permits full resolution in three space dimensions plus time whi…
Nonlinear propagation of light in structured media: generalized unidirectional pulse propagation equations
J. Andreasen, M. Kolesik
Unidirectional pulse propagation equations [UPPE, Phys. Rev. E 70, 036604 (2004)] have provided a theoretical underpinning for computer-aided investigations into dynamics of high-p…
Femtosecond filamentation in air and higher-order nonlinearities
M. Kolesik, E. M. Wright, J. V. Moloney
According to a recent experiment, the instantaneous electronic Kerr effect in air exhibits a strong intensity dependence, the nonlinear refractive index switching sign and crossing…
Dynamic Nonlinear X-waves for Femtosecond Pulse Propagation in Water
M. Kolesik, E. M. Wright, J. V. Moloney
Recent experiments on femtosecond pulses in water displayed long distance propagation analogous to that reported in air. We verify this phenomena numerically and show that the prop…
