Fission-fragment-excited lasing is reported for the 3{ital p}{prime}(1/2){sub 0}--3{ital s}{prime}(1/2){sup 0}{sub 1} neon transition ({lambda}=585.3 nm) in mixtures of He/Ne/Ar. The laser power efficiency peaks at a He/Ne/Ar ratio of approximately 50/2/1 for a laser cell pressure of 1.9 atmospheres. Laser parameters for pump rates from 70 to 1200 W/cm{sup 3} are presented for three cavity configurations.
