2 Summary The Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) is exploring the possibility of using OMEGA EP to pump an ultrahighintensity (10 24 W/cm 2 ) laser beamline Optical parametric chirped-pulse amplification (OPCPA)* makes it possible for solid-state lasers to pump ultrahigh-intensity lasers (tens of fs) Two OMEGA EP beams could be used to produce a 1.6-kJ, 20-fs (75-PW) OPCPA beamline EP-OPAL (optical parametric amplifier line) the two remaining beams would be available as ps or ns beams for target conditioning and pump probe experiments EP-OPAL would extend the high-intensity frontier by two orders of magnitude EP-OPAL s combination of high-energy fs, ps, and ns beams would provide a unique research environment.
