Abstract

A neon-like yttrium laboratory x-ray laser (XRL) at 155 Å has been used to perform radiography, Moiré deflectometry and interferometry of plasmas created in various laser-initiated experiments. A system consisting of the XRL, multilayer mirrors, and multilayer beam splitters was assembled to obtain high resolution images of the plasmas. Work is continuing to improve the XRL—higher brightness, shorter pulse length, and enhanced coherence—through a program of simulations and experiments.
