摘要
We investigate the interpulse thermal interaction of a train of ultrashort laser pulses and develop a model to describe the isobaric heating of air by a train of pulses undergoing filamentation. We calculate the heating of air from a single laser pulse and the resulting refractive index perturbation encountered by subsequent pulses, and use this to simulate the propagation of a high-power pulse train. The simulations show deflection of laser filaments by the thermal refractive index consistent with previous experimental measurements.
