20. This method is also the only one available to account for the time profile of the intensity of the laser pulse, when this profile has an influence on the results.
21. For computer applications, the increment time must be very small with respect to all of the inverse rate constants. The results become stable when the time interval is smaller than a hundredth of the smallest inverse absorption or fragmentation constant,
22. 0). Thus, the matrix power is replaced by mere powers of reals.

25. Nevertheless, as will be seen in the following, at high energy deposit the sensitivity of the experimental measurements to the dissociation scheme is limited. The right-hand cross sections are thus affected by large uncertainties.

34. A slightly less straightforward calculation could be developed for the PTD law leading to the same qualitative conclusions.
