A workshop on the physics at high intensity with petawatt class laser systems was held on 23rd-24th of January 2012 in Amphitheater Stourdzé, Ministère de l’Enseignement Supérieur et de la Recherche, in Paris. Scientists involved in these new PW-class projects gathered to share their unique technical and scientific expertises, essential for the achievement of all these ambitious research programs.
The physics at high intensity is becoming a very active field of research, benefiting from the emergence of PW-class laser projects all over the world, as well as remarquable progresses in numerical modeling and theoretical developments.
On the Plateau de Saclay, the EquipeX CILEX will offer a unique experimental ensemble around the APOLLON10P laser for the French community to explore the physics at ultra-high intensity.
