Opacity Effect on Extreme Ultraviolet Radiation from Laser Produced Tin Plasmas


Figure 1 Photograph of a gold cavity to generate intense Planckian x-ray radiation.
Figure 2 Schematic of Sn opacity experiment. Intense Planckian radiation heats uniformly a thin Sn sample. Spectrum of probe x-ray through a sample is recoded on an x-ray streak camera.
