Abstract
Results of numerical simulation of self-action in air of a sequence of ultrashort laser pulses with a carrier in the near and mid-IR regions are presented. We show that the use of a 10.6-μm pulse train allows significant elongation of the plasma channel generated during pulse filamentation and enhancement of its spatial connectivity. The filamentation of a submicron pulse train does not visibly change filamentation region parameters.
