Abstract
Important developments in gas laser technology have arisen in the past year or so. These developments include improvements in the performance of existing systems and the achievement of laser action in new systems. In the former category we would mention the construc-tion of compact CO2 lasers with power outputs previously achieved only in very large devices and the commercial exploitation of CW ultraviolet laser outputs in noble gas ion lasers. New systems would include CW laser action in metal vapors in a buffer discharge of helium and CW laser action in pure helium itself.
