The J. Phys. B publishing team would like to apologise to the authors of the above paper. Dueto an oversight, the article was published in issue 24 of volume 34 without the colour figuresrequested by the authors. We are therefore reprinting figures 1, 2 and 5 from that article.

Figure 2. Optimization of the number of photons with respect to focus position and medium lengthin argon. The laser peak intensity is I0 = 2.4 × 1014 W cm−2. (a) H15, b ≈ 10.5 cm. (b) H29,b ≈ 10.5 cm. (c) H15, b = 1 cm. (d) H29, b = 1 cm. At Z0 = 0 the laser focus is in the centreof the medium, Z0 < 0 means that the focus is before the centre of the medium, while the focus isafter the centre of the gas medium for Z0 > 0.
