The theoretical analysis of the longitudinal and transverse phase-matching conditions for coupling of the second-order Stokes and anti-Stokes radiation in stimulated Raman scattering by a Bessel beam is provided. The experimental results of the observation of the second-order Stokes and anti-Stokes components excited by a Bessel beam at
λ
p=532 nm in acetone are presented. Good qualitative agreement with the theoretical predictions is obtained.
