Extreme Light Infrastructure in Romania: progress Daniel URSESCU Technical contact point for ELI in Romania INFLPR, Magurele, Romania
Design Criteria • dual front-end (only one running at a time, 10-15 fs @100 mJ) • 3 arms (energy up to 300 J each, before compression) • separate room for pump lasers (first floor) • high rep. rate experimental area (underground 1) and high energy experimental area (underground 2) • extendable experimental area • parallel experiments operation
Preliminary: ELI Nuclear Building First floor: pump lasers Ground floor: 2 x front-end laser and 3 x amplifiers Underground 1 and 2: experimental area
