经过3年的建设,“火神”超短脉冲光束的输出将增加至500J,脉宽500fs,靶上功率为1.5PW。使用自适应光学校正波前误差,其光束 可聚焦至衍射极限光斑,靶上的辐照度可达10~(21)W·cm~(-2)。这一性能水平将为英国科学家及其国际合作伙伴开拓新的等离子体物理研究
After three years of construction, the output of the Vulcan ultrashort pulse beam will be increased to 500 J with a pulse width of 500 fs and a target power of 1.5 PW. Using adaptive optics to correct the wavefront error, the beam can be focused to a diffraction limited spot with an irradiance of 10-21 W · cm -2. This level of performance will open up new plasma physics research for British scientists and their international partners
