Abstract.

We present detailed results of calculating the modifications in X-ray lasing lines of a H-like ion under a strong elliptically-polarized electric field of an optical laser. We show that using an elliptically-polarized electric field of an optical laser, it is possible to control the amplification and polarization of the X-ray radiation, and to vary the frequency of the X-ray lasing line.
