Moscow University Physics Bulletin Aims and scope

Abstract

Experiments on the interaction of femtosecond laser radiation (1240 nm, 140 fs,1016W/cm2) with a Xe cluster beam in a Xe-Ne binary mixture are carried out. The formation of Xe clusters in the presence of light carrier gas (Ne) is found to narrow the Xe cluster beam and enhance the x-ray yield (at about 4 keV). X-ray generation efficiency is about 10−8.
