Modeling the propagation of high-power femtosecond laser radiation through an aerosol with nonlinear effects occurring in it

Abstract

The propagation of high-power femtosecond laser radiation through an aerosol is considered. The propagation of high-power femtosecond laser radiation is simulated by passing through flat phase screens that simulate the passage through an aerosol. They have effective optical parameters corresponding to the properties of aerosol, which are found, respectively, for different values of intensity levels in the case of nonlinear interaction from the solution of the direct problem.
