Abstract
Phase conjugation of microsecond laser pulses by forward Brillouin sca ttering in the field of two intersecting pump beams with a near-single -mode transverse structure is studied experimentally. The possibility of performing this interaction with relatively low pump power densitie s is demonstrated. This possibility allows one to realize phase conjug ation of long pulses in the absence of the competitive effect of therm al self-action.
