Abstract

Interaction of an ultrashort and ultraintense laser pulse with overdense/underdense plasmas is considered. Efficient conversion of fundamental laser radiation into sub-femtosecond XUV/X-ray radiation and its significant amplification in laser plasmas are obtained. The results of the simulations were compared with the experimental data and have shown a good coexistence.
