In this paper we present the modelling work currently performed at the Instituto de Fusión Nuclear “Guillermo Velarde” (Universidad Politécnica de Madrid) in the field of plasma amplifiers of UV, XUV and soft X-ray radiation. Hydrodynamic simulations are performed with ARWEN. The amplification of radiation is studied with 1D (DeepOne), and 3D (Dagon) Maxwell-Bloch codes. Results on hydrodynamic modelling of QSS and OFI soft X-ray lasers, characterization of plasma waveguides and amplification of harmonics in plasmas will be presented.
