Abstract

The operations at VNIIEF large-sized laser facilities and the VNIIEF advanced projects of laser facilities for ICF and fundamental physics investigations are discussed. Iodine laser and phase conjugation physics are treated. The possibility of the monopulse laser channel development is shown with energy up to 70 kJ in the single beam. The paper presents the brief review of the 10 MJ laser project and the high explosive photodissociated iodine laser (HE- laser) with phase conjugation is considered as the possible way of solving the ICF problem in the fast ignition concept. We suggest the way of the quasi stationary superhigh light field production by the focusing of power laser beams into supersmall volume (wavelength order size).
