1. A Short-Wave Radiation (SWR) system, the system comprising:
a light assembly, comprising at least one light source, the light assembly being configured to:
illuminate a front side of an ionization target with first illumination; and
illuminate a back side of the ionization target with second illumination;
a controller, configured to control the light assembly for illuminating the ionization target from the front side of the ionization target using the first illumination and at least partly concurrently illuminating the ionization target from the back side of the ionization target using the second illumination; and
an optical assembly configured to collect SWR emitted from the front side of the ionization target and to direct the collected SWR toward a designated beam direction of the SWR system, wherein the SWR emitted from the front side results from a target illumination scheme that comprises at least the first illumination and the second illumination.
