Abstract:

With the rapid advances in laser-maser technology and increased uses, the probability of personnel exposure to injurious intensities of laser radiation is greatly increased. It is important that adequate protective measures be taken to prevent unnecessary exposures. The report has been prepared to give information on the use of protective measures in Air Force applications of lasermaser devices.
