Abstract

The observation of soft x-rays from a tungsten plasma produced by intense subpicosecond laser pulses is reported. X-ray emission up to several keV photon energy was observed with just a few millijoules of laser energy. From correlation measurements of the x-ray signal from a plasma generated by two consecutive pulses we obtained an initial information on the dynamics of the plasma and the x-ray emission.
