Abstract

A detailed numerical simulation study of spectral characteristics of the x-ray flux from gold foil targets of different thickness irradiated by a 1ns laser pulse with 1014 W/cm2 intensity at 0.35 μm wavelength using the one-dimensional radiation hydrodynamic code MULTI is investigated using one-dimensional radiation hydrodynamic code MULTI. This is very important in the diagnosis of the x-ray spectrum and the design of an x-ray source.
