Investigations of high harmonic generation in laser induced ablation plumes

High harmonic generation (HHG) in gases provides a compact and versatile source of coherent light in the extreme ultraviolet and soft X-ray range. It is also used to produce attosecond pulses. This thesis investigates ablation plumes as an alternative medium to gases for HHG. Of particular interest...
