The effect of laser-current delay on extreme ultraviolet emission by laser-triggered discharge-plasma has been investigated. Typical waveforms for current, voltage, laser signals, and X-ray signals have been compared. Theoretical tin spectra were simulated among the electron temperature ranges from 10 to 50 eV to compare with the experimental results. The results show that longer laser-current delay time is propitious to increase the steady-state time of plasma at high temperatures, and it increases the intensity and spectral purity of 13.5 nm emission in 2% band. The 13.5 nm radiation intensity increases about 120% with the delay increasing from 0.7 to 5 μs, and the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) emission conversion efficiency (CE) increases from 0.5% to 1.1%.

We demonstrate the beyond extreme ultraviolet (BEUV) emission by a laser-triggered discharge source with the laser-current delay between 0.6 µs and 3 µs. The spectra at different electron temperatures are simulated theoretically, and the spectra at different laser-current delays are measured experimentally. The theoretical and experimental results show that the lower vapor velocity at longer laser-current delay time is beneficial for increasing the steady-state time of plasma at high temperature, thereby increasing the output intensity and spectral purity of 6.76 nm. The radiation intensity of 6.76 nm (0.6% bandwidth) increases about 240% when the delay increases from 0.6 to 3 μs.

A longstanding problem in the interpretation of the X-ray and extreme ultraviolet emission from strongly magnetic cataclysmic variables can be addressed definitively with high resolution EUV spectroscopy. A detailed photospheric spectrum of the accretion-heated polar cap of the white dwarf is sensitive in principle to the temperature structure of the atmosphere. This may allow us to determine where and how the bulk of the accretion energy is thermalized. The EUVE data on AM Herculis and EF Eridani are presented and discussed in this context.

Using data from the public archive of the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer (EUVE) all-sky survey, we have systematically searched for extreme ultraviolet (EUV) emission (58-174 Å, 0.07-0.21 keV) around approximately 2500 distinct positions in the sky corresponding to known X-ray emitting extragalactic sources. We find that 20 X-ray galaxies are EUV bright and were detected with significance above 4 σ during the EUVE survey: 8 are reported here for the first time (MS 0037.7−0156, Mrk 142, M 65, EXO 1128.1+6908, M 87, Mrk 507, PKS 2005–489 and 1H 2351−315.A). 68 additional galaxies are detected with a lower significance (3 < σ < 4), but the list is affected by a high percentage of spurious sources.


A number of time profiles are presented which show how the flux of radiation in the wavelength bands 0.1 to 0.3 nm, 0.3 to 0.9 nm, 0.8 to 1.6 nm and at 30.4 nm change during flares. The first sign of a flare is often a decrease of flux at 30.4 nm followed by an increase in the X-ray emission. In general, the higher the photon energy, the earlier the peak flux is reached, although any increase observed at 30.4 nm seems to peak before the X -ray flux. It is concluded that a model in which a mass of gas in the upper chromosphere is heated by shock waves or incident energetic particles does not explain the observations. What appears to be a more suitable model is suggested. Cool plasma from low in the chromosphere passes through a region of magnetic instability and is heated during the passage. In this way the material of the X -ray emitting region is heated to a high tem perature a little at a time. The intensity of X-rays observed in each waveband is proportional to the volume of gas produced up to that time at the corresponding tem perature. As the instability decays the gas passing through it can no longer be heated to the temperatures reached earlier and the emission of longer wavelength X-rays becomes dominant. The emission of y -rays and radio waves can also be explained
