Abstract

We present an overview of the projected and/or implemented laser systems for ELI-Beamlines. The ELI-Beamlines facility will be a high-energy, high repetition-rate laser pillar of the ELI (Extreme Light Infrastructure) project. The facility will make available high-brightness multi-TW ultrashort laser pulses at kHz repetition rate, PW 10 Hz repetition rate laser pulses, and kilojoule nanosecond laser pulses that will be used for generation of 10 PW, and potentially higher, peak power. These systems will allow meeting user requirements for cutting-edge laser resources for programmatic research in generation and applications of high-intensity X-ray sources, in electron and proton/ion acceleration, and in dense plasma and high-field frontier physics.
