This workshop is devoted to the development of HEC-DPSSLs worldwide as an enabling technology for applications such as inertial fusion energy, particle production (electrons, protons, neutrons, ions), radiation production (x-rays, gamma rays), high-energy-density science, shock physics and material science, and the use of these types of lasers for commercial applications. The workshop is held roughly every 18-24 months and is hosted by institutions that lead this capability worldwide. The HEC-DPSSL workshop offers a forum for discussion of results, issues, materials, and methods to enable future progress in this field. This year the workshop is organized by HiLASE laser centre.
