The emission of electromagnetic waves in the radiofrequency-microwave range has been observed in many experiments of laserplasma interaction.

The radiation normally affects the behaviour of most of the detectors, often up to hundreds of nanoseconds from the laser pulse, and can represent a serious limitation for the time-of-flight detection of fast particles, and in general for the safe operation of the electronic equipment.

Abstract
The emission of electromagnetic waves in the radiofrequency-microwave range has been observed in many experiments of laserplasma interaction. These fields can have very high intensity and estimated frequency band up to several gigahertz. The radiation normally affects the behaviour of most of the detectors, often up to hundreds of nanoseconds from the laser pulse, and can represent a serious limitation for the time-of-flight detection of fast particles, and in general for the safe operation of the electronic equipment. In this work we describe the measurements of this electromagnetic pulse, under different conditions of laser-plasma interaction. © 2015 The Authors.
