Study of the Coupling Efficiencies of Advanced X-Ray Sources of Gamma-Ray Laser Media

Abstract

This report results from a contract tasking Institute of Atomic Physics -IFTAR as follows: The contractor will investigate advanced X-Ray sources for possible use in X-Ray schemes. In order to complete this task the contractor will perform a literature search to identify appropriate X-Ray sources. He will then develop sc to adapt these sources to available pulsed-Power generators. Each scheme will be analyzed to determine the critical parameters which limit performance.
