Abstract

We have investigated the preionization characteristics of x ray for a transversely excited, multiatmospheric pressure CO2 laser amplifier with an active volume as large as 225 cm3. The x-ray dose required for uniform avalanche discharge is measured as a function of pressure up to 10 atm. The dependence of the input energy density of the main discharge on the x-ray dose is also investigated.
