125m Te (109.3 keV) stimulated emission and gamma lasers

Summary Proceeding from the drastic discrepancy between experimental data and theory, we show (contrary to other authors) that the relations between the Einstein's coefficients are true for transitions from any of the excited levels and theground state of the quantum system only. The relations connecting those coefficients are derived for transitions betweenany two states; the corresponding cross-sections are calculated and it is shown (contrary to other authors) that the stimulated emission cross-section may be large enough for the creation of gamma lasers. The new relation for Einstein's coefficients (and the corresponding cross-sections) are fundamentally different from those known so far (74 years after Einstein). The results are compared with experiment and the coincidence is very good. These investigations can lead to progress in the study of physical processes in star atmospheres. The author of this paper has agreed to not receive the proofs for correction.
