A numerical model for such non-linear pulse coupling is presented and compared to data taken at the high-power laser Draco with self-reference spectral interferometry (SRSI). The dependence of the B-integral accumulated in the regenerative amplifier on its operation mode enables optimization strategies for extracted energy vs. collected-integral. The technique presented here can, in principle, be applied to characterize any type of ultrashort pulse laser system and is essential for pre-pulse reduction.}, pages = {847--869}, title = {Characterization of Accumulated B-Integral of Regenerative Amplifier Based CPA Systems}, volume = {10}, year = {2020} }
