Soft X-ray laser experiments at the Novette laser facility
Abstract
We discuss the results of and future plans for experiments to study the possibility of producing an x-ray laser. The schemes we have investigated are all pumped by the Novette Laser, operated at short pulse (τL∼100 psec) and an incident wavelength of λL∼0.53 μm. We have studied the possibility of lasing at 53.6, 68.0-72.0, 119.0, and 153.0 eV, using the inversion methods of resonant photo-excitation, collisional excitation, and three-body recombination.
