Abstract
A transition analogous to the strongest 4{ital d}-4{ital p} nickel-like x-ray laser transition has been observed in cobaltlike ions within the same plasma. Amplified spontaneous emission from Co-like ions has been identified in laser-produced exploding-foil plasmas of Yb and Ta. The Co-like line exhibits similar time history to the Ni-like laser line and has a gain coefficient consistent with a significant Co-like population. The observation of this transition is of interest as fluorinelike analogs to neonlike 3{ital p}-3{ital s} x-ray lasers have never been seen although they are predicted to have gain.
