Abstract

When a high pressure gas was irradiated by a focused ruby laser light, a hot and dense plasma was produced, and moved towards the lens under the action of the laser radiation. The length of the laser-produced plasma was calculated on the basis of a breakdown wave and a radiation supported shock wave processes. The plasma length is experimentally observed in high pressure argon gas up to 200 atm, which agrees with the calculated one. At high pressure, the breakdown wave is dominant, while the radiation supported shock wave is predominant at low pressure.
