Progress in the development of table-top discharge-pumped soft x-ray lasers
The demonstration of large soft x-ray amplification in a discharge-created plasma has opened a new patk to the development of compact and practical soft x-ray lasers. We review our progress in the development and study of these ultrashort wavelength lasers. The field has advanced from the first obse...

The demonstration of large soft x-ray amplification in a discharge-created plasma has opened a new patk to the development of compact and practical soft x-ray lasers. We review our progress in the development and study of these ultrashort wavelength lasers.
