Presented By: Department Colloquia

Department Colloquium | The ZEUS Petawatt Laser Facility and High Field Science Research at Michigan

Karl Krushelnick (U-M Engineering, Center for Ultrafast Optical Science (CUOS) and Dept. of Nuclear Engineering)

The Zettawatt Equivalent Ultrashort pulse laser System (ZEUS) is a National Science Foundation-funded user facility located in the Gerard Mourou Center for Ultrafast Optical Science (CUOS) at Michigan. The laser will be capable of producing 3-Petawatt pulses and can also be split to create synchronized 2.5-PW and 0.5-PW pulses. This presentation will describe the different capabilities of the facility available to users in each of the three target areas and the current laser operations as well as recent results on laser wakefield acceleration and x-ray generation.
