Abstract
The first experimental evidence of modification of the scattered light spectrum of stimulated Raman scattering due to the presence of significant levels of stimulated Brillouin scattering is presented. The observed spectrum, as well as the spectral Raman gap observed in this and other experiments, is explained in terms of the modified growth of Raman in the presence of ion waves.Keywords
