Abstract

An experimental evidence is now emerging: high gain coefficients and brightnesses can be easily obtained along the Ne-like (1s²2s²2p⁵)3p ¹S₀ yield 3s ³P₁ (historically anomalous) lasing line, in intermediate-Z [(Ti) 22 less than or equal to Z less than or equal to 34 (Se)] plasmas, using low intensity prepulse techniques. An attempted theoretical explanation of the exact prepulse role in the amplification mechanism is reported, based on recent simulations of a European campaign conducted at the LULI (France) facility.
