Intense laser-plasma interactions are a robust source of light which is both on the fastest timescales imaginable and capable of imaging down to single atoms. Experiments showcasing the use of short-pulse lasers to create bright soft x-rays with circular helicity, white-light spectrum radiation suitable for near edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) radiography, and next generation attosecond sources will be presented.
