The paper gives a theoretical analysis of the possibility of obtaining population inversion at the resonant transition 6p to 6s of the mercury ion in a highly concentrated mixture of mercury and helium vapors stimulated by a powerful electron beam. The chief mechanism in the process would be the rapid vacating of the lower laser level by conversion of an atomic ion into a molecular one by the three-particle collision Hg(+) + Hg + A yields Hg2(+) + A, where A is either a helium or a mercury atom. The upper laser level is populated by cascade transitions after charge exchange between atomic and molecular helium ions and mercury atoms and via Penning ionization of Hg atoms by excited helium atoms and molecules. The output energy is calculated for suitable initial parameter values.
