The 192-beam National Ignition Facility (NIF) is the world’s most energetic inertial confinement fusion (ICF) facility. The NIF laser’s unprecedented power, precision, and reproducibility, coupled with more than 50 available diagnostics and sophisticated target fabrication capability, enable a wide range of leading-edge scientific experiments. Initial experiments in areas such as materials science, nucleosynthesis, and astrophysical shocks have been conducted. Visit the Lasers Home Page.
The Jupiter Laser Facility at LLNL consists of several laser systems with diverse capabilities. Laser time at Jupiter is provided through an open, competitive peer-review process. Users come from more than 90 institutions worldwide and more than 140 of Jupiter’s 500 users are students. Visit the Jupiter Laser Facility.
The welcome reception will be on 2/4/18 from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm at the Hilton Garden Inn’s Vineyard room.
