Abstract
The influence of temporal pump laser profile on the Soft X-ray laser (SXRL) efficiency is investigated in double grazing incidence pumping (DGRIP) transient collisional scheme. We have demonstrated a simple method that allows to produce and control one or several small prepulses and the ASE level of the pump laser beam by modifying the regenerative amplifier parameters. By changing the temporal structure of the pump beam we observed both an increase of the SXRL energy and an improvement of the target lifetime. Measurements made for different configurations are presented and discussed.
