A single-photon counting system has been developed for measuring gas laser parameters. A linear accelerator provides nanosecond-wide pulses of heavy charged particles which are injected into a specially designed cell. The charged particles excite gas mixtures, and the temporal response of the emitted radiation is observed as a function of wavelength. The resulting data is analyzed to obtain pertinent parameters such as excited-state lifetimes, reaction rate constants, and quenching rate constants. At the present time nuclear pumper laser candidate gases are being examined.
已开发出一种用于测量气体激光参数的单光子计数系统。一台线性加速器提供纳秒宽度的重带电粒子脉冲，这些粒子被注入到一个专门设计的腔室中。带电粒子激发气体混合物，并观察发射辐射的时间响应作为波长的函数。对所得数据进行分析以获得相关参数，如激发态寿命、反应速率常数和猝灭速率常数。目前正在研究核泵浦激光候选气体。
