X射线激光在稠密等离子体诊断中的应用

Application of X-ray lasers in dense plasma diagnostics

摘要: X射线波段的相干辐射——X射线激光，由于其短波长、高强度、强相干等独特的优点，已经成为诊断稠密等离子体状态的一种工具.文章结合相应的应用演示实验对此进行了简要的描述，介绍了诊断的原理、X射线激光的获得，以及偏折法和干涉法诊断的实验及其结果.

Abstract: The X-ray laser is a useful tool in dense plasma diagnostics because of its short wavelength, high intensity and coherence. A brief description of its applications is given here based on various demonstration experiments, including an introduction to the principle of plasma diagnostics, the fabrication of X-ray lasers, and the results of diagnostic experiments using the Moiré deflector and Mach-Zehnder interferometer.
