Abstract

The aim of this paper is to identify ways in which current designs can be modified to improve the output performances of the collisional x-ray lasers. The effectiveness -- for slab systems -- of some ideas are examined from a theoretical standpoint. They all involve the temporal shaping of the driver pulse and judiciously combine low and high intensity, long and short irradiations. Simulations of Ne-like Fe and Ni- like Ag XRLs experiments are also presented to support the study.
