Abstract

A laser produced plasma expanding in a uniform magnetic field emits far infrared radiation. The time-dependent radiation history is calculated assuming spherical symmetry and compared with experiment. General features of the radiation history agree well with experimental observation. However, a detailed comparison is difficult because of the oversimplified theoretical model employed.
