PHELIX: A petawatt-class laser recently commissioned for experiments in plasma and atomic physics
Year: 2009
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: The PHELIX facility is available to users since 2008. Nanosecond pulses up to 500 J are utilized at present for experiments combining the heavy ions accelerated at the GSI LINAC facility, while sub-picosecond 200-TW pulses are used in laser stand-alone experiments. A review of the laser performance and future developments is shown.
