Abstract
We have observed a new type of conical emission that occurs when two beams of light intersect in sodium vapor. Unlike the other forms of conical emission,1-4 for which the cone angle depends on material parameters, the cone angle of the two-beam-excited (TBE) conical emission that we observe is determined by the geometry of the interaction.
