Abstract

A new X-ray laser pumping concept Grazing Incidence Pumping (GRIP) based on collisional excitation of Ne-like or Ni-like schemes has recently been found to increase the laser pumping efficiency. Various optical arrangements to achieve grazing incidence irradiation in a line focus are studied and evaluated.
