Abstract
A positive effect of application of permanent magnets field in argon ion laser has been observed. Some ring magnets producing quasi-homogeneous field increases several times the output power. This influence is stronger with respect to magnet coil application. The reason of this phenomenon is caused by electron temperature increasing in radial magnetic field areas. Application of permanent magnets field should substantially enhance the output power of air cooled argon lasers.
