CLPU is a user facility opened to the domestic and international community through competitive access
CLPU
Uniqueness of VEGA -High Power 20-200-1000 TW -Short duration 30 fs -High rep. rate 1-10 Hz -High contrast ratio > 1010:1 -High beam quality (wave front Strehl Ratio 0.75-0.9) -High flexibility (pump & probe)
The cutting edge
Vega is the brightest star in the constellation of Lyra
La vírgen de la Vega is
patron of the city of
Salamanca

Possible configurations of VEGA
» conf 1) VEGA 2 compressed beam full power (on running)
» conf 2) VEGA 2 compressed beam + V3 uncompressed beam (sub ns synchronisation)
» conf 3) VEGA3 compressed beam
» conf 4) VEGA 3+ VEGA2 (fs synchronisation)
