Absorption of VUV-FEL radiation in warm dense matter

Abstract
The interaction of ultra-intense 50 fs VUV-beams with
solid-density metal and plasma targets has been simulated, solving
Maxwell's equations in one-dimensional geometry. An explicit
dielectric function is derived describing photo-ionization in
addition to collisional absorption by conduction electrons. As an
example, heating of thin aluminum foils up to electron
temperatures of 450 eV is discussed, including results on emission
spectra during and after the heating. The simulations correspond
to experiments now in progress at DESY in Hamburg, using the new
VUV Free Electron Laser.
