Abstract
Summary form only given. The transversely coherent soft X-ray radiation with quasi-Gaussian intensity distribution and angle divergence of ~0.5 mrad was recently generated by a plasma-based waveguide Ar+8 laser with excitation by a slow (~200 ns) non-ablative Z-pinch discharge in a long (~0.5 m) ceramic capillary. In the present study, we present results of further experimental optimization of the laser using such an excitation configuration
