Abstract

Relativistic self-trapping of a relativistic-intensity laser pulse during its propagation in a transparent high-density plasma is accompanied by the generation of ultra-bright synchrotron (betatron) radiation of the super-hard X-ray range. The paper studies the effect of the duration of a laser pulse of a given energy on the characteristics of such radiation. It is shown that the already available compression of powerful laser pulses significantly increases the efficiency of conversion into synchrotron radiation, and also increases the brightness of the X-ray source by an order of magnitude.
