SUMMARY:21st Direct Drive and Fast Ignition Workshop (DDFIW)
DESCRIPTION:The 21st Direct Drive and Fast Ignition Workshop (DDFIW) continues a series of meetings dedicated to inertial confinement fusion research in Europe. DDFIW provides a unique opportunity for European and overseas scientists working on theory\, simulations\, and experiments to present and discuss their latest results and future plans in an informal atmosphere. The meeting also addresses new schemes for inertial confinement fusion and related science at the cutting edge of high energy density physics research. \nRepresentatives of leading laser user facilities will illustrate the opportunities for new experiments\, and the development of simulation codes and their validation with experiments will be discussed. The workshop will also give students and young scientists the chance to delve deeper into the science of Inertial Fusion Energy (IFE) and explore collaborations and opportunities offered by groups around the world working on experiments\, simulations and theory. \nSatellite Meeting on 12 June 2026 organised by the Laserlab-Europe AISBL expert group on “Micro- and nano-structured materials for experiments with high-power lasers“

SUMMARY:Laserlab-Europe Talk: Medical Radionuclide Production by Laser Wakefield Acceleration
DESCRIPTION:Title: Medical Radionuclide Production by Laser Wakefield AccelerationSpeaker: Dino Jaroszynski (University of Strathclyde)Date: Wednesday\, 10 June 2026\, 16:00 Central European Summer Time (CEST) \nWe present a study of the production of 67Cu medical radioisotopes using bremsstrahlung radiation produced by 150 pC bunches of high energy electrons from a laser wakefield accelerator (LWFA) when they interact with dense convertor material.  The experiments demonstrating photonuclear production of radioisotopes have been carried out at the Scottish Centre for the Application of Plasma-based accelerators (SCAPA). 10 kBq of 67Cu was produced by irradiating enriched 68Zn over a five-hour irradiation period at approximately 1 Hz repetition rate\, which provides an important experimental benchmark. This work assesses the performance of current LWFA systems and establishes the requirements of future commercial LWFA-based systems and extrapolations suggests that the next stage of development. A facility based on optically pumped CO2 laser technologies could potentially achieve clinically relevant activity levels of 67Cu. The project is part of the MedRadLaser collaboration between the University of Strathclyde\, National Physical Laboratory\, the University of the West of Scotland\, and the UK Atomic Energy Authority. The studies will be extended and form part of the newly funded EUPOPA project. \nThe MedRadLaser collaboration involves Giuseppe Lorusso[1]\, Dino A. Jaroszynski[2]\, David O’Donnell[3]\, S. Mark Wiggins[2]\, Baris Bingol[2]\, Peter Ivanov[1]\, Ben Russel[1]\, and Lanre Yusuf[1]  \n[1] NPL Science and Engineering Directorate\, UK[2] Department of Physics\, Scottish Universities Physics Alliance\, University of Strathclyde\, Glasgow\, UK[3] School of Computing\, Engineering and Physical Sciences\, Scottish Universities Physics Alliance\, University of the West of Scotland\, Paisley\, UK \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Registration\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n	Notice: JavaScript is required for this content.
