We have experimentally and numerically investigated a multiwavelength strontium vapour laser which simultaneously emits both in the IR spectrum range on the self-terminating transitions in strontium atoms and ions (λ=6.456 and ∼3μm for Sr I, and λ≈1μm for Sr II) and in the visible range on the recombination transition in strontium ions ( λ=0.4305 μm for Sr II). A number of regularities in the behaviour of the output characteristics of lasing, which allow for a targeted search for optimal excitation conditions of the multiwavelength strontium vapour lasers, are established.
