Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Abstract This paper is devoted to the question of the conversion of nuclear energy into the energy of coherent optical radiation. The two possible ways to convert nuclear energy into laser radiation are discussed: direct and combined nuclear pumping. The concept of using laser gas active media capable of working with both direct and combined nuclear pumping is considered. The results of an investigation by Kazakh scientists on nuclear pumped lasers active media on bound–bound atomic transitions are presented.
