Description

The Helmholtz Institute Jena is a physics research institue that operates two High-Power Lasers, JETi200 and POLARIS, to study laser driven particle acceleration, laser matter interactions and QED phenomena. With a new extension building completed in 2022, a new Target Area is availiable to perform experiments with both lasers together for the first time. Due to this increased complexity, a common control system is needed. We evaluated Tango Controls as a candidate and want to share our first time user experience.
