The Nova laser fusion research facility, currently under construction at LLNL, and authorized by Congress at /195M, will provide researchers with powerful new tools for the study of nuclear weapons physics and inertial confinement fusion. Nova is a large, solid state laser, generating a fundamental wavelength of 1.0 /mu/m, intended to deliver 200-300 kJ in a few nanoseconds to appropriate advanced inertially confined fusion targets containing deuterium and tritium. The Department of Energy has approved construction of ten Nova Laser beams and the associated laboratory buildings. The remaining ten beams, and harmonic conversion apparatus, are presently under consideration.
