In Fiscal Year 2020 (FY20), Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory’s (LLNL’s) High-Energy-Density Physics (HED) and Indirect Drive Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF-ID) programs conducted numerous campaigns on the OMEGA and OMEGA-EP (EP) laser systems. This was the 22ndyear of National Lab collaborative experiments at OMEGA since the Nova Laser at LLNL shut down in 1999, building upon prior collaborations. In FY20overall,these LLNL programs led 375target shots, with 166shots using just the OMEGA laser system and209 shots using just the EP laser system. Approximately 34% of the total number of shots (35OMEGA shots and 93EP shots) supported the Indirect Drive Inertial Confinement Fusion Campaign. The remaining 66% (131OMEGA-only shots and 116EP-only shots) were dedicated to experiments for High-Energy-Density Physics.Highlights of the various HED and ICF-ID campaigns are summarized in the following reports.
