The development of LPP sources for generating hard X-rays has long been the subject of research and development [1]. Within the XProLas project we investigate novel concepts for LPP radiation sources. The aim is to improve the achievable brilliance and their scalability, as well as to optimize the emission geometry. For this purpose, our sources are integrated into the measurement chamber and can be directly compared with electron beam-based technology. Novel secondary sources will become increasingly important due to the high average power of ultrashort pulse lasers [2]. The presentation provides an overview of the latest developments in laser plasma sources and highlights potential risks associated with the interaction of intense laser pulses with matter [4,5].
