Along the Laser Beampath

Master Oscillator Room
Laser beams are born in the Master Oscillator Room as very low (billionth-of-a-joule) energy pulses. On their path to the target chamber, various systems amplify and control the beams to ensure that the energy is delivered exactly as designed for target experiments.
