Abstract

Interferometry measurements of zinc, copper and iron line plasmas created by the iodin laser PERUN (λ equals 1.315 micrometer, τ approximately equals 400 ps FWHM) with intensities equivalent to those generated by low-level prepulses in the collisional excitation soft x-ray lasers (5 times 10 9 minus 1.3 times 10 11 Wcm -2) are presented. The interferograms were taken with 4 and 10 ns delays with respect to the peak of the drive laser pulse using the third harmonic of the iodine laser (λ equals 438 nm). Preliminary results of electron density profile reconstructions in the plane perpendicular to the line plasma axis are reported.
