M. D. Rosen,Donald W. Phillion,V. C. Rupert,W. C. Mead,William L. Kruer,J. J. Thomson,H. N. Kornblum,V. W. Slivinsky,George J Caporaso,Michael Boyle,K. G. Tirsell +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the x-ray emission of gold disks has been irradiated with 1.06 μm laser light at intensities between 7 × 1013 and 3 × 1015 W/cm2, and pulse lengths between 200 and 1000 psec.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dennis L Matthews,E. M. Campbell,Natale M. Ceglio,G. Hermes,Robert L. Kauffman,L. N. Koppel,Richard W. Lee,Kenneth R. Manes,V. C. Rupert,V. W. Slivinsky,Robert Turner,F. Ze +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the absolute conversion efficiency from the incident laser light energy to x-ray photons for laser-produced plasmas was studied as a function of laser wavelength, pulsewidth, and intensity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
Polarization and Angular Dependence of 1.06-μm Laser-Light Absorption by Planar Plasmas
TL;DR: An enclosing "box" calorimeter has been used to measure the polarization and angular dependence of 1.06-m laser-light absorption under experimental conditions approximating those assumed by Estabrook, Valeo, and Kruer in their simulations as mentioned in this paper.
