Abstract
The absorption of 10.6‐μ and 2.8‐μ radiation by inverse bremsstrahlung in an electron‐beam‐sustained discharge is measured in several gases as a function of E/N. The experimentally derived absorption cross sections are compared with theoretical predictions and good agreement is shown.Keywords
