Soft x-ray amplification in a laser-produced plasma: a review and prognosis

Creators

Description

Some general remarks are given on the suitability of a laser-heated plasma to produce an amplifying condition. The several mechanisms which can produce x-ray excited states in a plasma are listed with particular emphasis given to collisional processes. Examples of proposals for achieving inverted populations which rely primarily on one of each of these mechanisms are presented
