Abstract

The results of a proof of principle experiment is presented to illustrate the utility of the capillary discharge as a medium for the efficient production of soft x-ray lasing. The duration of the capillary discharge plasma, 8 μs, is long enough to allow multiple pulses from a Q-switched mode-locked Nd glass laser to be used as a heating source to create a hot, relatively dense plasma several times per discharge.
