We have measured the 8 to 11 keV emission spectra from plasmas produced by impinging 0.53 [mu]m 100 and 200 ps FWHM Gaussian laser pulses on targets of different materials. The experimental spectra from W and Zn are identified by comparison with local thermodynamic equilibrium plasma emission calculations.
