Models of the process of interaction of pulsed laser radiation 
with gasdisperse systems are developed. Both individual stages of 
the process accompanying the interaction of a laser pulse with a gasdisperse 
system and the dynamics of the state of the system under the conditions 
of interference of processes of various physical nature are modeled. 
Generalized dependences allowing prediction of the characteristics 
of a probing beam are constructed. Boundaries of the region of efficient 
supply of laser-pulse energy to the system are determined.
