RE: Research on lasers + high voltage discharges

Imagine, being able to direct (assuming I understood the
research correctly) a high voltage discharge with a laser beam. Does
anyone
know how this is even possible???

I'm a new poster to this group so please forgive!  The laser system
pre-ionizes the air.  Essentially there is sufficient nitrogen in the
air to be ionized by the UV and creates a friendly conductive path to
your favorite target.
