Demonstration of a 1.1 petawatt laser based on a hybrid optical parametric chirped pulse amplification/mixed Nd:glass amplifier
Erhard Gaul,Mikael Martinez,Joel Blakeney,A. Jochmann,Martin Ringuette,Doug Hammond,Ted Borger,Ramiro Escamilla,Skylar Douglas,W. Henderson,Gilliss Dyer,Alvin C. Erlandson,R.R. Cross,John A. Caird,Christopher A. Ebbers,Todd Ditmire +15 more
TL;DR: The design and performance of the Texas Petawatt Laser, which produces a 186 J 167 fs pulse based on the combination of optical parametric chirped pulse amplification (OPCPA) and mixed Nd:glass amplification, is presented.

TL;DR: In this article, the diagnostics of particle flows in Inertial Confinement Fusion experiments is a delicate issue due to the fast timescales and to the strong radiative electromagnetic contributions This makes the discrimination of the different particles produced by the laser-plasma interaction not trivial, and requires the use of several diagnostic techniques.
