Abstract :
In this paper we investigate both theoretically and experimentally simultaneous process of generation and detection of the THz pulsed radiation in the plasma optical breakdown. The algorithm of single-valued and correct reconstruction of the temporal profile of the initial THz pulse is suggested.
