Abstract
Observations of Raman scattered light from inhomogeneous laser-produced plasma have shown characteristics quite different from the simple predictions for the stimulated Raman scattering instability. An alternative explanation in terms of enhanced scattering, produced by bursts of hot electrons arising at the quarter-critical or critical surface, is described. Comparison is made between the predictions of this theory and four experiments.Keywords
