Intricate Plasma-Scattered Images and Spectra of Focused Femtosecond Laser Pulses

We report on some interesting phenomena in the focusing and scattering of femtosecond laser pulses in free space that provide insights on intense laser plasma interactions. The scattered image in the far field is analyzed and the connection with the observed structure of the plasma at the focus is d...
