Abstract
The positions and profiles of x-ray spectral lines emitted from well c haracterized laser-produced plasmas have been investigated. The red sh ifts observed for higher members of the aluminum Lyman series are cons istent with theoretical predictions of the line shifts in hot dense pl asmas. The experimentally observed profiles of Al XIII Ly(alpha) line are interpreted by modeling the radiative transport through plasma wit h large transverse gradients.
