Abstract

Stimulated emission has been observed in the

Q 1

and some

P 3

lines of the

v^{'} \to v^{''} = 1 - 4, 2 - 5, 2 - 6, and 3 - 7

Werner bands (

C^{1} Π_{u} \to X^{1} {Σ_{g}}^{+}

) of molecular hydrogen near 1200 Å. Light pulses of approximately 1 nsec duration were produced by bombarding hydrogen gas with ∼ 400-keV electrons from a commercial electron-beam generator.
