The space-time focusing of a (continuous) succession of localized X-shaped pulses is obtained by suitably integrating over their speed, i.e., over their axicon angle, thus generalizing a previous (discrete) approach. First, new Superluminal wave pulses are constructed, and then tailored in such a wave to get them temporally focused at a chosen spatial point, where the wavefield can reach for a short time very high intensities. Results of this kind may find applications in many fields, besides electromagnetism and optics, including acoustics, gravitation, and elementary particle physics.
