Abstract
We have conducted photon counting experiments to search for x rays which may be generated by either collisionless multiphoton induced inner-shell processes or bremsstrahlung at high laser irradiance. Using KrF light at an irradiance ~ 3 x 1017 W/cm2 on low density Xe gas targets, we detect no prompt photons which are characteristic of these processes.
