“…It was generally assumed that 235 U in a gaseous state would be used for this concept. However, the experimental work which verified the criticality of the gaseous core reactor used UF 6 (Kunze, Pincock &Hyland 1969 andHyland 1972). …”

Due to the low power density of pumping schemes for nuclear-pumped lasers prior to 1978, a method of utilizing the efficient production of narrow band fluorescence from excimers was developed. This method has since been referred to as a nuclear driven flashlamp. It is possible to achieve sufficient power densities, when combining the flashlamp with novel techniques of reactor/laser interfaces, to drive efficient, high power lasers directly with products from nuclear reactions.
