title = "Parametric study of static and flowing-gas Cs DPAL",
abstract = "Experimental and theoretical parametric study of static and flowing-gas diode-pumped Cs lasers is reported. In the static case dependence of the output laser power and the beam quality factor M2 on the power and spatial shape of the pump beam is studied. An optical model of multi-transverse mode operation of alkali vapor lasers [Auslender et al, Opt. Express 25, 19767 (2017)] is applied to the experimental results. The values of the laser power and M2 predicted by the model are in good agreement with the experimental results for different shapes and powers of the pump beam We also report, briefly, on our recently published work [Yacoby et al, Opt. Express 26, 17814 (2018)] on flowing-gas Cs-DPAL where the output power and gas temperature rise in the laser cell at different flow velocities were studied and the results analyzed by our three-dimensional computational fluid-dynamics) model.",
