Abstract

An analysis is made of a large number of experimental values of the thresholds of formation of a plasma by laser irradiation of opaque materials. An empincal equation is obtained for predicting the moment of plasma formation in a wide range of conditions. The influence of the laser wavelength on the "flash" process is considered, together with the question of accuracy of prediction of the moment of plasma formation.
