Ultrafast X-Ray Sources

Abstract

During the contract period we made progress in six areas: development of ultrashort pulse x-ray sources; generation of subpicosecond, unicycle electromagnetic pulses; propagation of intense short pulse lasers in plasmas; new x-ray lasers; new high-intensity, short pulse lasers; diagnosis of multiphoton ionized plasmas. our work resulted in thirty-one publications, which are listed in Section III of this report. Publications not previously been sent to AFOSR are included in this report. our work has resulted in forty-five conference presentations, which are listed in section IV of this report. Four additional invited talks are currently scheduled.
