Abstract

Nonlinear deviations of refractive index induced by powerful lasers cause beam distortions and tend to degrade the efficiency of energy transmission through the atmosphere. The main nonlinear effects at the upper atmosphere are conditioned by ozone photodissociation and stimulated Raman scattering (SRS). We will ignore SRS and concentrate on new features of the laser-induced ozone photodissociation.
