Conference ·
OSTI ID:605185

In May, 1996, we demonstrated the production over a petawatt of peak power in the Nova/Petawatt Laser Facility, generating 620 J in {approximately} 430 fs. Results of the first focused irradiance tests, and recent deployment of a novel targeting system will be presented.
