The Optical Society of America Conference on Applications of High
Fields and Short Wavelength Sources, held in Santa Fe, New Mexico,
USA, from March 20-22, 1997, was an exceptionally exciting
conference. This conference was the seventh in a series of topical
con ferences, held every two years, which are devoted to the
generation and application of high field and short wavelength
sources. The meeting was truly international in scope, with equal
participation from both within and outside of the US. In the past
two years, there has been dramatic progress in both laser and x-ray
coher ent sources, both fundamental and applied. The 1997 meeting
highlighted these advances, which are summarized in sections 1 and
2 of this volume. Terawatt-class lasers are now avail able in the
UV or at high repetition rates. Michael Perry (LLNL) presented a
keynote talk on petawatt class lasers and their applications in
inertial confinement fusion, while Jorge Rocca (Colorado State
University) presented a keynote talk on tabletop soft-x-ray lasers.
Genera tion and measurement techniques are becoming very
sophisticated throughout the UV and x ray region of the spectrum,
and coherent sources have been extended to wavelengths below 30A.
Phase control in the x-ray region is also now possible, and new
phase-matching schemes in the UV have been experimentally
demonstrated. It is clear that a new field of x-ray nonlin ear
optics will deveiop rapidly over the next few years."
