Description

ELI Beamlines (Extreme Light Infrastructure) is newly emerging petawatt-class laser facility currently being constructed in the Czech Republic as a part of EU effort to build a new generation of large research facilities. ELI constellation includes another two facilities: ELI Attosecond in Hungary and ELI Nuclear Physics in Romania. The decision was made to employ the MTCA.4 hardware platform widely in various applications inside both the laser beam distribution subsystem and experimental chamber's secondary sources and target setups at ELI Beamlines. Covered tasks dedicated to MTCA.4 are to be: adaptive optics, laser beam alignment, temporal and spatial synchronization of multiple femto-second pulse laser beamlines, and beamlines common diagnostics. The talk on behalf ELI Beamlines Control Systems group presents the ideas and concepts of these MTCA.4 applications at ELI Beamlines and the current status of their preparatory phase.
