Abstract
We present an experimental investigation of the effect of incoherent p rocesses on a laser-induced continuum structure. Accurate measurements of the resonance profile, performed in a weak-field regime by the pol arization technique, have allowed a quantitative study of the effect o f a finite laser bandwidth and of the collisional self-broadening on t he line shape.
