E. J. Divall,Chris Edwards,G. J. Hirst,C. J. Hooker,A. Kidd,J. M. D. Lister,R. Mathumo,Ian N. Ross,M. J. Shaw,W. T. Toner,A. P. Visser,B.E. Wyborn +11 more
TL;DR: The Titania laser system as discussed by the authors is the state-of-the-art e-beam pumped KrF amplifier for both CPA (249 nm) and Raman (268 nm) short-pulse modes, delivering up to 10 TW to target in high quality beams.

M. J. Shaw,Ian N. Ross,C. J. Hooker,Joseph Michael Dodson,G. J. Hirst,J. M. D. Lister,E. J. Divall,A. Kidd,S. Hancock,A. R. Damerell,B.E. Wyborn +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the main requirements for a fast igniter laser beam are reviewed and shown to favour short wavelength and ultra high brightness, which are met by the new KrF laser system at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory called TITANIA.
