Physical phenomena and extreme matter conditions, as encountered in many astrophysical situations, can be reproduced at a smaller scale in the lab thanks to high-power laser facilities. It is worth mentioning for instance cataclysmic variables, supernova explosions, young star jets, stellar and pla…

Laboratory planetology and hot dense matter
Warm Dense Matter: planetary science and fundamental physics at LULIThe advent of high-power lasers has opened unprecedented opportunities to explore extreme pressures (several Mbar) and temperatures (multi kK), leading to investigations of complex states of matter at the intersection of condensed …

LADOC
The calibration board is used to inter-calibrate the 200 000 readout channels of the the ATLAS Liquid Argon (LAr) and measures their three gains. Thus, each calibration channel must generate accurate pulses to simulate the detector signal over the full 16 bit dynamic range. It is based upon a 0.1% …

Laser
The LULI2000 laser hall contains 2 power laser chains (NORTH and SOUTH) with single pulse neodymium glass. Each chain can deliver up to 1 kJ at ω (1.053 µm) in ns regime (NANO2000 configuration).The repetition rate is limited to one shot every 90 minutes (between 4 and 6 "full energy" shots per day…

Laser amplification by Stimulated Brillouin Backscattering
Plasmas, by exciting ion acoustic waves (Stimulated Brillouin Scattering), can be used to transfer energy from moderately long, high-energy laser pulses to short ones. The topic was investigated in collaboration with the SPRINT team and the University of Roma.1D and 2D PIC simulations in the strong…

Laser-plasma interaction in the framework of advanced ICF schemes
Special attention has been paid to the so-called shock ignition scheme. In this scheme, compression of the fuel pellet is ensured by laser irradiation at lower intensity and longer duration than in the nominal scheme, while ignition is independently achieved thanks to a strong shock launched by a d…

Launch of the ESCAPADE mission to Mars
On November 13, 2026, at 8:55 pm (UTC), the New Glenn 2 rocket lifted off from the Kennedy Space Center (Cape Canaveral, Florida), carrying the two satellites of the ESCAPADE mission to Mars (PI: Rob Lillis, UC Berkeley). This spectacular launch, during which the first stage of the 98-meter-high ro…

Le mot du directeur
Sébastien Le Pape - Director of LULISince the first laser was built in 1960, the ability to concentrate the enormous power of intense, brief beams of light onto micrometric dimensions has opened the way to numerous fields of research.Indeed, the interaction between these focused beams and matter br…
