Abstract
New fields of X-ray source applications (X-ray laser
and high order harmonic generation) could appear if an
intensity higher than 1012 Wcm−2
is reached. Following this goal, we have started a complete
investigation of the X-ray beam wavefront both numerically
and experimentally. The first XUV wavefront sensor has
been developed and tested on different XUV sources. For
a better comprehension of the experimental results, a numerical
work (ray-trace code) has been performed. We present and
discuss the first results obtained on the X-ray laser at
21.2 nm.
