Report for Pecos Activities (CY 2019)
- Sandia National Laboratories (SNL), Albuquerque, NM, and Livermore, CA (United States)
All experiments involving the Pecos target chamber in calendar year (CY) 2019 were dedicated to Pre-Heat studies in the context of Magnetized Liner Inertial Fusion (MagLIF). Activities at the target area included actual laser shots but also diagnostic and maintenance, and preparatory work for experiments with cryogenically cooled targets, which are anticipated for CY 2020. Since the Z-Beamlet and Z-Petawatt lasers support multiple campaigns, we can only anticipate laser and laser-operator time for one out of three shot windows in a day, and typically not on every day of the week. For that reason, many of our non-shot activities need to be traded against shots as well.
