Abstract A scheme for obtaining high gain-length product(GL) of recombination X-ray laser is proposed and theoretically studied, in which a thin fiber with a density less than the critical one is driven by a short pulse laser. The features of laser-produced plasma and the gain coefficients of the transition from n = 3 to n = 2 of the H-like ions for a solid fiber and a low-density cylindrical target of carbon are shown. The Sobolev escape probability in a self-similarly expanding cylindrical geometry is used to evaluate the trapping effect on the gain coefficient. According to the simulations there are three obvious advantages of the low-density target, ie., wider gain region, longer lasing duration and no drift of the gain region. In addition, only a few joules are needed for getting saturated GL value.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
