The paper presents the transition to the regime of induced radiation of a system of oscillators in the classical and the quantum cases. This transition occurs due to synchronization by the integral field of the phases of a small part of oscillator-emitters. In the quantum analogue of this model, it is shown that the formation of an induced (and, therefore, coherent, as noted by Ch. Towns) pulse of the field is due to the interference of nutation of population inversion in different regions of the system of oscillators. The law of spatial variation of the field intensity is deter-mined by the dispersion characteristics of the system and the level of absorption or output of the radiation energy. Only a small fraction of oscillators provide induced radiation: 8% in the classical case and half as much in the case of a quantum system, where a change in the sign of population inversion in the regions of the highest field values significantly affects the limitation of the radiation intensity.
