Investigation of the Feasibility of the Electron Beam-Excited, High-Pressure Recombination Laser

Abstract

The report describes research applied toward the determination of the feasibility of developing a recombining, electron beam-excited plasma into a pulsed laser of exceptionally high peak power. The indication of small signal gain for optical amplification at 5875 A is the principal subject of this supplement.
