Abstract
An enclosing "box" calorimeter has been used to measure the polarization and angular dependence of 1.06-μm laser-light absorption under experimental conditions approximating those assumed by Estabrook, Valeo, and Kruer in their simulations; i.e., ∼ W/ plane waves incident on a planar plasma. A clear resonance absorption maximum was observed for -but not for -polarized incident radiation as predicted.
