optics arranged to focus the first and second laser beams; and a beam guiding system including a first beam path along which the first laser beam is guided, and a second beam path along which the second laser beam is guided, in which the beam guiding system includes a beam combiner to superimpose the first and second laser beams, the first beam source is a pump laser, the second beam source is a laser resonator, and the beam guiding system further includes a beam switch adapted to feed the first laser beam into a pump laser beam path and/or into the first beam path.
