Abstract
Multiphoton ionization coefficients of atmospheric gases were measured with ultrashort ultraviolet laser pulses. The values were obtained using two di fferent experimental setups and the pressure range covered four orders of m agnitude. The coefficients were pressure-independent and consistent with nu mbers predicted by the nonresonant Keldysh theory.
