Recently, the phenomenon of intense femtosecond light pulse filamentation over distances of several tens of meters was observed [1,2]. The study of long-interaction-length intense laser pulses has interesting applications including laser-induced lightning, laser-pumped x-ray sources, and laser-plasma based accelerators.
