I am interested in laser-induced plasmas and want to know the ionisation
degree of it.

Can anyone guide me to where I may find information about the relation
between the laser-pulse intensity and the degree of ionisation? The
laser pulse in question has a wavelength of 532 nm and a duration of 10
ns. The medium is air at atmospheric pressure.

Thanks.
Anders
