Abstract

Generation of an extremely stable light bullets in a preformed plasma near critical density has been observed experimentally. Optical probing measurements indicate the formation of pulsating channels, typically of about 5 micrometers in diameter, directed towards a heating laser beam, as well as a disconnected massive plasm block moving also towards a laser beam.
