Abstract

Performance of a pulsed HF/DF chain laser was investigated for the case of transverse initiation by a magnetically confined electron beam. Laser energy and beam quality are presented as functions of electron-gun, magnetic field, gas mixture, and optical resonator parameters; results include 65 J/liter HF laser output.
