Abstract:

This report describes studies concerned with the physics of short wavelength lasers and with applications of a new type of quantum mechanical interference. Highlights of this work include the operation of a traveling wave X-ray pump H2 116 nm laser the development of a new type of depletion spectroscopy for core-excited states and the proposal of lasers without inversion and related concepts applicable to nonlinear optics.
