Abstract:For the commercial laser inertial fusion energy (IFE) reactor, a highly repetitive operation in which many fuel pellets must be illuminated by laser spots. One of the most efficient ways to achieve this is to control the laser pointing with following fluctuations of the target position. The paper shows a precise control of the laser pointing for horizontal direction with a repetition rate of 10 Hz. Free-falling test pellets of 1 mm in diameter have been illuminated by a laser spot of 1.6 mm in diameter with ca… Show more
