Abstract
In a gas ring laser gyroscope characterized by a gain medium for producing at least one monochromatic narrow electromagnetic beam reflected to form a loop about the gain medium, the improvement wherein bypass channels are provided, displaced from the beam path, for reducing gas flow in the beam path. The bypass channels may extend about the gain medium and across the beam loop and may include controllable restrictions therein for selecting the flow rates therethrough.
