Abstract :
Summary form only given. We investigated the conditions under which conical or on-axis emission is observed in forward stimulated Raman scattering in H/sub 2/ gas and backward stimulated Brillouin scattering in liquid acetone. The conical emission of stimulated Raman Stokes light was observed for cone angles of the Bessel beam in the range from 0.7 to 3.5 mrad.
