Abstract
We report the observation of amplified spontaneous emission on the J=2 -->1, 3p-3s transition (C-line) of neonlike argon at 69.78 nm in capil laries of 6-mm bore. The simple discharge is driven by a small capacit or bank having a capacitance of 0.1 mu F. Gain coefficients between G= 0.17 cm(-1) and G=0.25 cm(-1) are derived.
