Abstract
It is shown that an electrical discharge can dissociate the higher-order sulfur molecules S3→8 into dimers S2 and thus create the proper environment for efficient conversion of XeCl radiation at 308 nm to the blue-green. The use of a heat-pipe configuration greatly alleviates the technological problems.Keywords
