Title: 10-GW CO{sub 2} laser system at the Brookhaven Accelerator Test Facility

Conference ·
OSTI ID:10136489

Design and performance of a high peak-power CO{sub 2} laser system to produce subnanosecond IR pulses for electron acceleration experiment are presented. We discuss theoretical aspects of the picosecond laser pulse propagation in a molecular amplifier and a design approach towards compact Terawatt CO{sub 2} laser systems.
