Abstract :
A kinetic model of the active medium of a copper-vapor laser with hydrogen admixtures is developed. This model is tested against the available experimental data. A detailed analysis of different viewpoints on the improvement of losing characteristics of a copper-vapor laser by hydrogen admixtures is provided. Hydrogen admixtures are shown to improve the lasing characteristics due to various mechanisms.
