In the last two decades the regime of ultraintense (>1019 Wcm-2) laser pulses producing and interacting with plasma has revealed unprecedented advancements in particle acceleration and as a secondary source of high-energy radiation beams.
Previous experiments, developed in our group, have discovered coherent x-ray beams with high brightness (approaching that of FELs1) and composed of multiple high order harmonics2,3. The following experiments and simulations have shown that the produced x-ray sources are from tens to hundreds of nanometers in size. This novel phenomenon is known as BISER4.
Here, we report new experimental results concerning spatial distribution of these promising x-ray sources, which will enable a more rigorous understanding of the underpinning physics of its origin and the effect of specific laser parameters on its spatial pattern and brightness. Additionally, a potential alternative technique to measure their spatial distribution with a few hundred nanometers resolution is presented, which will enable both, the estimation of the source size and its brightness.
