ABSTRACT:
A ring laser for penetrating electromagnetic radiation such as X or gamma rays, using a pumping beam supplied by a primary lightwave or infrared laser. A member made of active material is illuminated by the beam, which has symmetry of revolution around its axis and whose electric lines of force are circles centered on the said axis. The pumping beam is conveyed by a mirror toward the end of a circular metal channel having a semi-toroidal cross-section and containing the active member, the mirror being formed with an aperture near the axis and transmitting the X or gamma rays emitted by the active member after they have been propagated along the end of the channel. The active member may be made of a substance which can undergo thermonuclear fusion by absorbing X or gamma rays. The active substance may also be a boron hydride or a boronate.
