Abstract
Laboratory x-ray lasers are currently being developed by researchers worldwide as potential sources for x-ray imaging and other applications. Laser action has been demonstrated at wavelengths as short as 35.6 angstroms and there is a large effort underway to enhance the coherent power output of the Ni-like Ta x-ray laser at 44.83 angstroms as a source for x-ray imaging of live cells. Part of this effort is dedicated to producing a more affordable, compact laser to pump the x-ray laser in order to increase the accessibility of x-ray laser sources.
