Lasing from autoionization resonance
Abstract We derive semiclassical equations for a single-mode laser operating between a bound state and an autoionizing resonance. We study its steady state properties, find intensity-dependent frequency pulling effects, bistability and, in a certain sense, inversion-less operation.
Abstract The possibility of the generation of a megagaus magnetic field in a plasma, creating at atom tunnel ionization in a high-power laser radiation field has been predicted.
