โฆ Synopsis
A simple technique for focusing synchrotron radiation and thereby providing high intensity x-ray beams as small as 0.1 micron in diameter is described. Gradually tapered glass capillaries serve as the focusing elements. The first measurements of gain in the intensity of x-rays using focusing capillaries have been made.

The 6.4 MeV 15 N 2+ ion beams are focused using glass capillary optics. The transmitted beam includes ions which have suffered slight energy loss. The areal density of the transmitted beam is enhanced by approximately 10 times, and the enhancement factor does not depend on the incident beam current.
