Abstract
The numerical optimization of the temporal shape of the pump laser for the design of a 38.8 angstrom H-like x-ray laser is presented. Enhancement of local and integrated gains is obtained by smoothing the pulse rise, without drastic increase of the x-ray emission duration. Sensitivity of the results to the pulse intensity is also examined. High temporal resolution spectroscopy of aluminum targets performed in the keV range at the P102 facility in Limeil is finally presented.
