Abstract

Results are presented which show that in the case of the light elements highly ionised species can be detected in laser produced plasmas using a normal incidence spectrograph, the plasmas being formed by picosecond pulses from a high power Nd: glass laser. In particular hydrogenic ions of carbon, oxygen and fluorine have been observed when the incident laser flux density onto a solid target was about 3×10 14 W/ cm 2.
