Conference ·
OSTI ID:14148

General Atomics (GA) together with the University of Rochester/Laboratory for Laser Energetics (UR/LLE) and Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), has designed the OMEGA Cryogenic Target System. This system fills, cools, and layers DT targets and places them in the center of the OMEGA Target Chamber. All equipment was procured, assembled, and tested at GA and UR/LLE. GA along with Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and LANL is designing a test unit to evaluate the key process parameters and design issues associated with fielding cryogenic targets on the National Ignition Facility.
