AbstractLaser plasmas are well-suited to studies of ionic photoabsorption because they can provide highly ionized, low temperature plasmas of high column density, as well as bright, compact continuum X-ray sources which can illuminate the plasma under study. In our experiment, continuum X-rays from a gold laser plasma are partially absorbed as they traverse a carbon plasma and are then dispersed by a grazing incidence reflection grating. An X-ray imaging camera records both the absorbed and unabsorbed spectra simultaneously for later computer analysis to determine the photoabsorption cross sections for each carbon ion species.

Most of grazing incidence (reflective) X-ray imaging systems used in astronomy and in other (laboratory) applications are based on the Wolter 1 (or modified) arrangement. But there were proposed also other designs and configurations, which are considered for future applications for both in laboratory and (finitely) in space. The Kirkpatrick-Baez (KB) lenses as well as various types of Lobster-Eye (LE) optics and MCP/Micropore optics serve as an example. Analogously to Wolter lenses, the X-rays are mostly reflected twice in these systems to create focal images. The KB systems have already found wide usage in laboratory and synchrotron, both application are reviewed and discussed in detail in this paper. While this paper focuses on future possible applications of non-Wolter grazing incidence systems in space and astronomy, we also discuss in detail applications in other areas of science, where (in contrary to astronomy) some of these systems have demonstrated their advantages.
