Abstract
We proposed the method of generation of the circularly polarized x-ray laser using the Zeeman splitting. External magnetic field of 20 T was applied to the gain medium plasma to separate the degenerated lines of nickel-like molybdenum x-ray laser. The splitting of the x-ray laser line was clearly obtained, and the strength of the magnetic field estimated from the quantity of the x-ray laser line splitting was quite higher compared with that of the external magnetic field. It implies that there might be alternative mechanism for enhancement of the magnetic field in the gain medium plasma.
