Those include the new generation of „Chirp PulseAmplification” laser systems, Free Electron Lasers operatingin the IR or visible range, and a number of laser drivensources covering the XUV range, generally based on the highintensity irradiation of solid or gaseous targets. The mainperspectives, applications and essential issues concerning suchsources are discussed."]
