✦ Synopsis

The obscrvauon of optrcal signals due LO hght sca~~enng from Hi molecular eons IS reported and dlscussed By focusing Q-sH?tched 1064 nm NC! YAG laser light III H, at 20 bar, optical frequencies have been generated They are assigned partly IO s~~~~ulared Raman scattenng from H; and partly from Hz molecules The scattered radiation (Stokes-slufted 1064 nm beam) was transformed II-HO usable hght via tugher-order four-wave mmmg processes The frequencm thus obtarned could be observed with the nahed eye if the scattered I&II was drspersed and proJecled on a whte screen The temperature ol the gas In the focal reggon of zhe laser beam was esumated IO be 1030 f 300 K
