The University of California, Los Angeles is joining LaserNetUS, a high-power laser facility alliance established by the Department of Energy, aimed at advancing laser plasma science.

Unique facilities are located in universities and national laboratories across the United States and Canada, providing a wide range of opportunities for researchers and students.

The Phoenix Laser Laboratory at the University of California, Los Angeles is led by physics professors Troy Carter and Cristoph Niemann and has one of the highest energy lasers in the university. Phoenix lasers can be emitted into large plasma devices 20 meters (nearly 66 feet) long to reproduce conditions similar to astrophysical explosions such as coronal mass ejections or supernovae.

As part of LaserNetUS, the University of California, Los Angeles will also support experiments related to laser fusion as a potential carbon free and infinite energy source in the future.

Recently, the national ignition device at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory demonstrated this concept for the first time, which is much larger than the Phoenix Laboratory. The Phoenix laser will assist in conducting laser target and cavity coupling research and testing the necessary scientific instruments.
