摘要
We have studied the characteristics of x-ray emission in the 12-16 Angstrom range from plasmas produced by the irradiation of a target of Xe clusters with picosecond laser pulses at intensities near 10(17) W cm(-2). These plasmas exhibit strong emission from Ni-like through to Mn-like Xe. We find that the strength and character of the x-ray spectra are very similar when either 1053 or 526 nm laser pulses are used to heat the clusters.
