Abstract
On the basis of a two-dimensional numerical model, a study is made of the parameters of a continuous optical discharge in an air flow at atm ospheric pressure for conditions of experiments investigating the regu larities of the loss of stability at various laser powers and velociti es of the air flow. The domain of parameters is found in which the con tinuous optical discharge in air flow at atmospheric pressure is stabl e. The obtained numerical results agree well with the experimental dat a.
