Transient regime of stimulated enthalpy scattering of light by ultrasound in iodine lasers

A theoretical investigation is made of the transient regime of stimulated enthalpy scattering of light by ultrasound in iodine lasers. The distinguishing characteristics of such scattering are identified. A comparative analysis is made of the stability of working mixtures of iodine lasers under conditions of stimulated enthalpy scattering and ways of verifying experimentally the theoretical results are considered.
