Abstract
We report on the design and characterization of a grazing-incidence flat-fi eld spectrograph that allows simultaneously the measurement of spectrum, be am divergence, and absolute flux of EUV and soft X-ray radiation for a beam of high-order laser harmonics generated by the interaction between an ultr ashort femtosecond laser pulse and a gas jet. The instrument seems a very p owerful tool for the understanding of the generation process.
