Laser light scattering in laboratory plasmas

TL;DR: In this paper, the theory of light scattering from a collection of free electrons is reviewed, and it is shown that the frequency spectrum observed at a detector is precisely that of the density fluctuations of a particular scale length in the scattering medium, the scale length being determined by the wavelength of the incident light and the geometry of the experimental arrangement.

3. Plasma Diagnostics by Light Scattering

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss plasma diagnostics by light scattering and the details of the scattering depend on the spectrum of these fluctuations which can be related to plasma parameters such as temperature and density.

Light Scattering Experiments

TL;DR: Scattering experiments have the considerable advantage that measurements may be made with true spatial resolution, that is, over a small element of volume at the intersection of the incident and scattered beams, without perturbing the plasma as discussed by the authors.

A Twelve-Channel Multiple-Interferometer Fabry-Perot Spectrometer

TL;DR: A specialized spectrometer has been built to meet the time and spectral resolution requirements of a difficult plasma diagnosticexperiment and sample data from an experiment measuring the spectrum of ruby laser light after being scattered and doppler broadened by a theta-pinch plasma are given.

TL;DR: In this paper, a profile of light scattered by a plasma is measured for α < 1, and enhanced scattering signals are observed at the electrostatic plasma wave frequency at the same time.
