An overview is presented of laser-based absorption and fluorescence techniques for probing high temperature gases, including shock-heated gases and combustion flows. Techniques discussed include: remote laser absorption measurements via a fiberoptic link; wavelength modulation spectroscopy using rapid-tuning laser sources; and planar laser-induced fluorescence for imaging species, temperature and velocity.
