a, A change in τα (defined as the time at which Fs in Extended Data Fig. 2e decays to 1/e) by a factor of two (indicated by the horizontal blue dashed lines) corresponds to a substantial change in the corresponding packing fraction ϕ (indicated by the vertical red dashed lines). b, Size of an excitation as a function of ϕ, for two laser durations (A = 99 mW). c, Variance of the Nmax as a function of ϕ.
