Abstract

New possibilities for compact, bright, coherent x-ray generation have recently emerged through rapid advances in short pulse, multi-terrawatt (TW) laser technology. We present here our recent developments and progress on high gain recombination x-ray lasers and efficient x-ray harmonics generation from solid surfaces using a 2 ps, 20 J chirped pulse amplification (CPA) beam from the VULCAN Nd-glass laser facility (λ=1.053 μm) at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL).
