title: Pulsed uv nitrogen laser: dynamical behavior.
abstract: Using the time dependent rate equations, the dynamical behavior of a high power pulsed N(2) laser radiating at 337.1 nm is derived. The threshold conditions are given. The output peak power and pulse width as a function of length and initial inversion density are shown. The theoretical results derived are compared with experimental data and are found to be in good agreement.
