Radial Density Profile and Stability of Capillary Discharge Plasma Waveguides of Lengths up to 40 Centimeters

M. Turner, A. J. Gonsalves, S. S. Bulvanov +10

We measured the parameter reproducibility and radial electron density profile of capillary discharge waveguides with diameters of 650 um to 2 mm and lengths of 9 to 40 cm. To our k…
