Title :
Study of Laser Induced Plasma at Low Laser Intensity
Abstract :
Laser induced plasma in the intensity range 8.106-109 is studied. It is observed that the electron temperature of the plasma increases with laser intensity while the electron density increases up to certain laser intensity, beyond which it decreases and then saturates.
