Abstract
AbstractThe recent evolution to combine high-intensity X-ray Free Electron Lasers XFEL’s with high-energy high-intensity optical lasers provides the scientific community with outstanding tools to study matter and radiation under extreme conditions never achieved in laboratories so far. Atomic physics in dense plasmas and X-ray spectroscopy are the key elements for novel studies beyond the current state-of-the art. The self-seeded mode of XFEL’s will enable for the first time to combine efficient pumping of atomic states in dense plasmas while resolving the frequency dependence of X-ray absorption and emission line profiles. The perspectives for novel fundamental studies in atomic density matrix theory are discussed. Finally, a new role of atomic physics processes is explored in XFEL-solid matter interaction: Auger electron heating and three-body recombination heating.
