Nuclear-Pumped Laser Devices Based on Gas Media

In Chap. 2 we examined rather simple NPL designs for searching for and studying characteristics of laser active media, but there are also more complex nuclear laser devices. As a rule, they are structural elements of multichannel reactor lasers operating in stationary or pulsed modes, and are intended to study the specifics of their operation. This chapter examines some of these devices, whether in operation or still being designed.
