Event Details
Tour of the University of Rochester Laboratory for Laser Energetics
When: Friday, May 30,2025 at 3:00 PM
Where: 250 E River Rd, Rochester, NY 14623
Free, Registration will open on May 1, Attendance is limited to 25.
The Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) was founded in the fall of 1970. The mission of the Laboratory was to investigate the interaction of intense laser radiation with matter. LLE was established as a multidisciplinary teaching and research center for the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences.
The Laboratory has a five-fold mission:
- 1. To conduct implosion experiments and basic physics experiments in support of the National Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) program.
- 2. To develop new laser and materials technologies.
- 3. To provide graduate and undergraduate education in electro-optics, high-power lasers, high-energy-density physics, plasma physics, and nuclear fusion technology.
- 4. To operate the National Laser Users' Facility.
- 5. To conduct research and development in advanced technology related to high-energy-density phenomena.
