摘要：

Experimental evidence of low saturation levels of stimulated Brillouin backscatter from a magnetically confined, underdense, CO2 laser heated plasma is reported. Simple arguments are given to suggest an explanation for the saturation levels observed. A comparison with other experiments suggests that the focusing system of the incident laser beam may influence the saturation level of the backscattered radiation.
