Abstract :
Experiments on the pulsed mercury-helium laser have revealed a new line at 7418 Å. The laser was examined specifically with regard to operation at 7945 Å, and it was found that the optimum He pressure is 30 torr. The high optimum pressure implies that collision mixing helps to populate the upper state.
