Supercontinuum Generation in Gases
Abstract
Supercontinua extending from the ultraviolet to the infrared are observed from high-pressure (1-40 atm) Ar, Kr, Xe, ${\mathrm{H}}_{2}$, ${\mathrm{N}}_{2}$, or C${\mathrm{O}}_{2}$ illuminated with 2-psec or 70-fsec, 0.6-\ensuremath{\mu}m pulses with an energy \ensuremath{\lesssim}500 \ensuremath{\mu}J. The blue spectral component is shown to display a nearly universal behavior for all gases and pulse durations. Although the maximum intensity of the focused, femtosecond pulse in an evacuated cell was \ensuremath{\sim}${10}^{13}$ W/${\mathrm{cm}}^{2}$, continuum generation was only observed with the femtosecond pulse when the threshold for self-focusing was exceeded.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
