Laser-Plasma Interaction Studies for the LMJ facility

Inertial Confinement Fusion; Laser Plasma Interaction; Cross-Beam Energy Transfer; Optical Smoothing

全体主题 > 激光和粒子束聚变

In this talk, after a short overview of LPI in the ICF context and of our modeling
tools, I will focus on two recent studies linked to the LMJ facility. Firstly, I will present
the design and modeling of a cross-beam energy transfer experiment for LMJ. Energy
transfers are expected in ICF targets and are mitigated by slightly shifting the laser
wavelengths. Then, I will discuss the possibility of improving the laser performances by
revisiting the optical smoothing schemes of LMJ, while keeping the same level of
stimulated Brillouin backscattering.
