Abstract
The advent and development of ultra-intense tabletop laser systems has played a significantrole in recent decades thanks to the wide number of applications and studies in which thesesystems were demonstrated to be appropriate. Among these, one of the main applicationsof ultra-intense radiation is generation of plasma by solid, liquid or gaseous targets. Theby-product of x-radiation found many different applications such as spectroscopy, imaging,microlithography, microscopy, radiographies (in particular of biological samples),radiation–matter interaction, fundamental plasma parameter determination, astrophysics,inertial confinement fusion, high energy physics, quantum electrodynamics, and manyothers.In the following a brief description of our tabletop Nd:YAG/glass apparatus (facility of theQuantum Electronic and Plasma Laboratory of the University of Rome ‘Tor Vergata’),together with x-ray conversion efficiency studies for different targets, are reported.
