Effects connected to the interaction of microwave-frequency-modulated laser radiation with plasma

The oscillations of the gas dynamic and electrodynamics parameters of plasma generated under the action of a powerful UHF-modulated laser radiation are investigated theoretically when the characteristic laser radiation intensity modulation time is significantly less than the characteristic time of variation of the gas dynamic parameters of the plasma. It is demonstrated that the values of the parameters may be found using the averaging method and represented in the form of the sum of two parts, of which one part is the solution in the absence of modulation, and the other part describes small-scale oscillations about this solution.
