Abstract

The behavior of a mixture of optically excitable and inactive gases in the field of a laser radiation is considered from the viewpoint of nonequilibrium thermodynamics. The kinetic coefficients satisfying the Onsager-Casimir reciprocity relations are found from general properties of the Boltzmann equation, boundary condition, and terms describing the gas-radiation interaction. Various kinetic phenomena induced by the laser radiation are coupled with corresponding cross effects.
