Energy deposition by hot electrons in CO2-laser-irradiated targets

  • 1. Applied Physics Section, Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut 06520

Description

Kα emission has been measured from plane multilayered disc targets irradiated by nanosecond CO2-laser pulses at peak irradiances of 7.5 x 1014 W cm-2. Absolute levels of hot electron preheat have been determined
