Abstract

Using 1-D non-LTE radiative hydrodynamic code JB-19 we simulated the interactions of basic and double frequency neodymium-glass laser beam which is focussed into a line onto target, with thin Formvar-iron foils. The values of population inversions and gains are calculated using steady rate equations. The profiles of laser-produced plasma conditions and the probabilities for 3p-3s transition in neon-like iron at peak intensities 5TW per square centimeter to 20TW per square centimeter and FWHM 800-1000ps are shown.
