The kilo-Joule, nanosecond high repetition-rate facility at the Extreme Light Infrastructure ERIC (Beamlines) for IFE studies

惯性约束聚变物理学 > 驱动器、制靶和诊断-I

In this talk the present status of the L4n-P3 experimental platform [1] will be presented as well as the near-term upgrade. ELI-Beamlines has operational a high repetition-rate laser system, L4n, that can provide kJ-class, nanosecond pulses at up to one shot per minute with pulse shaping capabilities [2,3]. Sophisticated diagnostic systems for time-resolved backscattering (Raman, Brillouin, two-plasmon decay) as well as VISAR/SOP are available and make it a unique platform for fundamental physics studies in the field of inertial confinement fusion. Also addressed will be new initiatives in targetry, such as tape-based printed foams for laser-plasma interaction (LPI) studies.
