We present a source of coherent extreme ultraviolet (XUV) radiation with a flux of 10$^{13}$ photons per second at 26.5 eV. The source is based on high-harmonic generation (HHG) in argon and pumped by a frequency-doubled 100 kHz repetition…
A model is suggested to explain the frequently observed presence of intense, narrow-band, H(alpha) emission lines in the optical spectra of reddened, early-type stars (e.g. HD 44179, IRAS 18179-1346, IRAS 20298+4011). It is proposed that…
