Consider the propagation of a 1 kW laser beam (λ = 6943 Å, beam diameter ≈ 1 cm) in CS2. Calculate fd and fnl and discuss the defocusing (or focusing) of the beam. Repeat the calculations corresponding to a 1000 kW beam and discuss any qualitative differences that exist between the two cases. The data for n0 and n2 are given in Sec. 18.11.
