Extreme Light Infrastructure – Nuclear PhysicsStatus Update
ORAL · Invited
Abstract
Since early 2020, the facility has provided laser pulses at nominal powers of 100 TW, 1 PW, and 10 PW to its experimental areas through the user access program. The High Power Laser System (HPLS) at ELI-NP currently holds the distinction of being the most powerful laser system in the world, regularly delivering 10 PW pulses for experimental use.
IFIN-HH/ELI-NP also oversees two significant projects: “Medical Applications of High-Power Lasers – Dr. Laser” and the Centre for High Power Optics. This presentation will offer a technical overview of the ELI-NP infrastructure, highlighting its capabilities and the latest developments in its research and development programs.
*This work was supported by the Extreme Light Infrastructure Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP) Phase II, a project co-financed by the Romanian Government and the European Union through the European Regional Development Fund the Competitiveness Operational Program 065208-5 (1/07.07.2016, COP, ID 1334), by the PN 23 21 01 05 and the LAS-COMB ELI-Ro contract funded by the Romanian Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digitalization and the IOSIN 2023 funds for research infrastructures of national interest. The work was partially supported by the European Union and the Romanian Government within the Romanian Health Program of the project "Medical applications of high-power lasers - Dr. Laser" Cod SMIS: 326475.
