    Notes: Spectra of highly ionized titanium and calcium in the extreme ultraviolet region were observed in laser-produced plasmas using the OMEGA 24 beam (351 nm) laser system at the University of Rochester. The plasmas were produced using glass microballoon targets coated with a layer of a medium Z element and a layer of parylene (CH). Time-integrated electron temperatures and densities were obtained by comparing measured line intensity ratios of lithiumlike charge states of Ti and Ca to numerical calculations from a collisional-radiative model. The variation of line intensity ratios with electron density and temperature using the collisional-radiative model is discussed.

    Notes: In this paper we describe experimental and computational studies of multiple-pulse-driven laser plasma, which is the gain medium for a neon-like yttrium x-ray laser. Near-field emission profiles have been measured both with and without reinjection of the x-ray laser photons to couple with the amplifying medium created by later pulses using an external multilayer mirror. From the temporal and spatial evolution of the near-field emission profiles we can examine the pulse-to-pulse variation of the x-ray laser plasma due to changes in the hydrodynamics, laser deposition, and the injecting of x-ray laser photons back into an amplifying x-ray laser plasma. Using a combination of radiation hydrodynamics, atomic kinetics, and ray propagation codes, reasonable agreement has been obtained between simulations and the experimental results. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: This article presents the results of experiments in which a high-power laser was used to irradiate low density (4–9 mg/cm3) silica aerogel and agar foam targets. The laser–solid interaction and energy transport through the material were monitored with time-resolved imaging diagnostics, and the data show the production and propagation of an x-ray emission front in the plasma. The emission-front trajectory data are found to be in significant disagreement with detailed simulations, which predict a much more rapid heating of the cold material, and the data suggest that this discrepancy is not explainable by target inhomogeneities. Evidence suggests that energy transport into the cold material may be dominated by thermal conduction; however, no completely satisfactory explanation for the discrepancies is identified, and further experimental and theoretical research is necessary in order to resolve this important problem in laser–plasma interaction physics. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The morphology of the 33.8 A(ring) emission from laser-irradiated targets was studied using a concave mirror with a W/B4C multilayer coating. The mirror had peak normal-incidence reflectance of 1.8% at a wavelength of 33.8 A(ring). The emissions from a variety of targets were imaged on film with a spatial resolution of 30 μm in the target plane. Radiatively heated, low-density plastic and silica foams, x-ray laser targets, and a gas-filled enclosure were imaged. Several targets were simultaneously imaged at wavelengths of 33.8 and 130 A(ring) using two normal-incidence microscopes.

    Notes: The quenching of spontaneous emission coefficients, presumably by electron collisions, which was recently inferred at Princeton from measured intensity ratios of visible and extreme-ultraviolet lines from a common upper level in laser blow-off plasmas, was investigated using a ruby laser. The line intensity ratios of the Civ 3s-3p and 2s-3p transitions, for similar laser targets, show a similar dependence on separation from the target as the previous experiments. Both of these results can, however, be interpreted in terms of density gradients and Stark broadening without invalidating Einstein A values. This interpretation also applies to Ciii and Nv line intensity ratios, which are further compromised by blends with other lines. The quenching of Arii lines by photon collisions, which had been reported by the same Princeton group, can finally be shown to have been mimicked by other effects, in this case by the Rabi oscillations and associated power broadening in the argon ion laser cavity.

    Notes: Collisionally pumped soft x-ray lasers now operate over a wavelength range extending from 35 to 300 A(ring). These well-characterized sources have high peak brightness (GeV blackbody temperature) and narrow bandwidth making them ideal for x-ray imaging and interferometry. We will describe experiments which have used the yttrium neon-like x-ray laser operating at 155 A(ring) to probe plasmas at electron densities exceeding 4×1021 cm−3. The short pulse duration of this x-ray laser (∼150 ps) has made it possible to image directly driven thin foils with 1–2 μm spatial resolution. Advances in multilayer mirrors and beam splitters have now also made it possible to develop x-ray laser interferometers. We will describe initial experiments to probe plasmas relevant to ICF using x-ray laser interferometry. The progress in the development of short pulse x-ray lasers (∼30 ps) which are ultimately necessary to extend x-ray laser diagnostic techniques to higher densities will also be presented. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The development of soft x-ray mirrors and large aperture soft x-ray beamsplitters now allows the near routine operation of soft x-ray interferometers with high brightness x-ray sources. Mach-Zehnder and Fourier transform interferometers utilizing a soft x-ray laser light source operating at 80 eV will be described. Results from high density, long scale-length plasma probing measurements, x-ray laser coherence measurements, and materials properties measurements will be presented. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The spectra of highly ionized titanium, Tixiii through Tixxi, and Cvi Lyman lines were excited in laser-produced plasmas. The plasma was produced by uniformly irradiating spherical glass microballoons coated with thin layers of titanium and parylene. The 24-beam Omega laser system produced short, 0.6 ns, and high intensity, 4×1014 W/cm,2 laser pulses at a wavelength of 351 nm. The measured wavelength for the 2p-3s Tixiii resonance lines had an average shift of +0.023 A(ring) relative to the Cvi and Tixx spectral lines. No shift was found between the Cvi, Tixix, and Tixx lines. The shift is attributed to a Doppler effect, resulting from a difference of (2.6±0.2)×107 cm/s in the expansion velocities of Tixix and Tixx ions compared to Tixiii ions.

    Notes: Spectra from an extreme ultraviolet (XUV) grazing incidence spectrograph have been used in the study of thermal transport in laser plasmas. These measurements with XUV lines allowed a diagnosis of much lower temperatures in the heating front than had been previously measured. The OMEGA (24-beam, 351-nm) laser system at the University of Rochester was used to produce plasmas from glass microballoons coated with Al or Ti substrates and overcoated with a plastic ablator. Thermal transport was investigated by measuring the intensity of x-ray and XUV lines as a function of the thickness of the plastic overcoat. These measurements were then compared to the 1D hydrodynamic code lilac. Agreement between the hydrodynamic code and experiment could not be obtained with a reasonable value for the flux limiter ( f≤0.65). Consistent results were reached if nonuniform irradiation and flux inhibition is assumed. The measured burnthrough depths of around 9 μm are similar to previous measurements made with x-ray lines at fluxes below 1015 W/cm2. No evidence of preheat in the heat front was observed.

    Notes: Abstract Neon-like niobium X-ray lasers have been studied using both slab and thin-foil target geometries. Niobium foils of various lengths were irradiated from both sides with two beams of the frequency-doubled Nova laser system using a line focus. We looked for gain by measuring spectrally integrated line intensities at different plasma lengths. Gain was observed in four neon-like niobium lines corresponding to 3s−3p transitions. The line profile of theJ = 0−1 line (λ = 145.9 Å) shows splitting due to the hyperfine effect. Improved contrast in the hyperfine structure is observed as the plasma length is increased. Hyperfine splitting may be relevant to other 3s−3p transitions in neon-like niobium as well as other neon-like X-ray laser systems.
