In conclusion, we demonstrate a new remote air laser from minor species, where the gain medium is provided by the water in atmospheric air. We will show how atomic hydrogen emission can be used for remote sensing of gases and provide naxeplanation ofr ethidfefrences ebtewen ofrward nad abckward slinga.

N2 - We demonstrate backwards lasing from atmospheric air humidity. The 656nm stimulated emission is obtained via two-photon excitation of atomic hydrogen created from water dissociation. The hydrogen lasing can be used for standoff optical gas detection.
