Studies of the interaction of condensed matter with short pulse (∼ 600 fs) high intensity (∼1017 W/cm2) ultraviolet (248 nm) radiation show that intense spatially compact sources for x-ray emission in the kilovolt range (0.5–1.0×1015 W/cm2) can be generated from solid targets at close to the maximum volume specific rate allowed.
