The Jupiter Laser Facility is an institutional user facility in the Physical and Life Sciences Directorate at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL). The facility is designed to provide a high degree of experimental flexibility and high laser shot rates, and to allow direct user operation of experiments.
The Jupiter Laser Facility’s missions are to support lab-wide research pertinent to LLNL programs (e.g., High Energy Density Science), to promote collaborations with research institutions and universities, and to provide a stimulating environment for the training of young scientists with a special emphasis on the National Ignition Facility (NIF).
