Abstract
A complete analytical analysis of the temperature distribution in a laser rod in an axial pumping scheme is presented. The heat source distribution, as well as the front or side cooling means, have a circularly cylindrical symmetry. The longitudinal heat-source distribution is strongly inhomogeneous
