Analysis of a nuclear pumped lasing mechanism for application to nuclear radiation measurements

A nuclear pumped laser is attractive as a self-powered and visible radiation sensor which is capable of processing information with coherent light signals. The development of highly efficient and low-threshold nuclear pumped lasers was advanced in an ³He/Ne/Ar gas mixture. This paper presents the analytic results of the lasing mechanisms of the ³He/Ne/Ar nuclear pumped laser through numerical simulations and reactor experiments.
