13. The spectral filter is a model of the one discussed in M. Drescher, M. Hentschel, R. Kienberger, G. Tempea, C. Spielmann, G. A. Reider, P. B. Corkum, and F. Krausz, Science 291, 1923 (2001). It has a 5.1 eV FWHM and falls rapidly to zero outside of this bandwidth.
14. The radial window function simulating the mirror is equal to one over a 1 mm radius and then goes rapidly to zero over the next 0.25 mm.
