Abstract
Building upon the experience and hard-ware of the Aurora laser system, a new KrF laser, called Mercury, is presently under construction at Los Alamos. The goal is to provide a smaller, more cost-effective laser test-bed that is ultimately capable of delivering ~3 TW in a 200-μm spot size for KrF technology development and for ICF uses
