Target Engagement Graham Flint - General Atomics Tom Lehecka - Penn State Electro-Optics Center Bertie Robson - NRL HAPL Project Review Oak Ridge National Laboratory March 21-22, 2006

Overall Concept for Target Engagement in a Semi-Rigid Environment Offset target is illuminated in flight by a Q-switched glint laser. Each coincidence sensor views the glint via the rear surface of a wedged dichroic mirror. Disparities between beamlet alignment and glint signals are used to reposition the fast-steering mirrors. Coincidence sensors verify pointing of redirected beamlets. Offset Target Chamber N-S axis Coincidence sensors ASE Source Alignment Laser Target injection / tracking subsystem Target glint source Dichroic mirror Cat’s eye retroreflectors Wedged dichroic mirrors Grazing incidence mirrors Segmented vacuum window Focusing mirrors Slow steering mirrors in the amplifier chain continuously center each alignment beamlet upon its coincidence sensor. Integrated injection / tracking subsystem places the target within a defined volume which is centered upon the chamber’s nominal center. Amplifier / multiplexer/fast steering mirrors

Geometric Correction associated with a Single Glint Reference Source Beamlet displacement from chamber axis:  Glint offset: a = r sin  /2 For negligible offset error (as   π):  a < 5  m For IFE ( r = 2.35 mm):  r/r ≤ 0.2% Current specification:  r/r ≤ 1.0% Target r Chamber axis   /2 Glint offset a

Coincidence Sensor Views Target Glint via Common Footprint on Grazing Incidence Mirror Target injection / Tracking subsystem Target glint source Dichroic mirror Beamlet Target at t = 0 Target at t = -1.2 ms Grazing incidence mirror Wedge angle ~ 1 mrad Dichroic mirror has long wavelength pass first surface, high reflecting rear surface. Mirror wedge angle compensates for combination of target offset and glint parallax. Except for monolithic dichroic mirror, main laser and coincidence sensor share a common optical path. Common path eliminates sensitivity to vibration at frequencies below ~50 Hz.
