Abstract

Using Teramobile laser, a mobile integrated system providing 5 TW peak power in 100 fs pulses, near to a 2 m astronomical telescope, we could for the first time image the femtosecond beam from the side up to altitudes of 25 km. Spectroscopic measurements of the lidar return were performed, in the infrared as well as in the visible.
