Abstract
Recent advances in the technology of fabricating efficient multilayer coatings that can operate at normal incidences in the soft x-ray band allows the design and construction of plasma probing experiments using standard optical elements in a conventional manner similar to optical probing experiments in the visible wavelengths. Initial experiments are directed at demonstrating x-ray shadowgraphy, or radiography of plasma objects. Test images with this scheme demonstrate spatial resolutions of 1 μm in the object plane. Experiments using this technique have examined the structure of laser-accelerated as well as radiatively-heated thin foil targets.
