Self-healing of pulse compression in gas-cell-based filamentation experiments

It is worth emphasizing that other compressor schemes based on Ar-glass-Ar interfaces were also numerically simulated, confirming the important role of the spatial phase accumulated through the glass window. In particular, we find a similar dynamic when we replace the second gas by vacuum. In summary, we conjecture that the observed processes should be present in all filament pulse compressors using gas cells.
