Abstract
We studied cross saturation in a two-wave mixing geometry in a supersonic beam containing I2. Quantitative agreement with theory was obtained for probe and pump beams of comparable intensities. But substantial deviation from theory was observed at very small intensity ratios. A plausible explanation of the deviation is given.
