摘要
A high-power laser propagating through a plasma creates a low density channel through which it propagates self guided, This equilibrium, however, is unstable to Brillouin backscattering above a threshold power, A nonlocal theory of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) reveals that the growth rate is significantly reduced due to a geometrical factor; nonetheless, it remains an important process in laser-produced plasmas, It is also a limiting process in a plasma loaded free electron laser (FEL).
