Abstract

Abstract

Extreme nonlinear optics of gaseous media is an interdisciplinary branch of applied physics motivated by various potential applications. I will discuss two of them: air lasing and channeling the dielectric breakdown of air. Both applications benefit from recent developments in ultrafast laser technology.
