Description
At the center of every experiment at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory’s National Ignition Facility is a target - a tiny, precisely engineered object built to withstand the intensity of the world’s highest energy laser system. Join us as we explore target fabrication: the craft behind capsules made of diamond, their intricate assemblies, and cross continental journeys that make fusion experiments possible.
Guests featured (in order of appearance):
Michael Stadermann, Target Fabrication Program Manager, LLNL
Jared Hund, LLNL Contract Manager at General Atomics
