Xperiment - Patrick Poole | TEDxBerkeley

Патрик Пул, научный сотрудник-физик Ливерморской национальной лаборатории имени Лоуренса, работает с одними из самых мощных лазеров в мире, изучая поведение вещества в экстремальных условиях. Его исследования охватывают физику высоких плотностей энергии и физику плазмы, включая эксперименты на установке National Ignition Facility. Помимо работы в лаборатории, он занимается популяризацией науки: готовит будущих специалистов в области термоядерной энергетики и проводит демонстрации для аудиторий всех возрастов. Выступление прошло на мероприятии TEDx, которое было организовано независимо местным сообществом.

• Поведение вещества в экстремальных условиях
• Физика высоких плотностей энергии и плазмы
• Подготовка кадров для термоядерной энергетики

Patrick Poole is a research physicist at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, where he works with some of the world’s most powerful lasers to explore the behavior of matter under extreme conditions. Beyond his research, Patrick is passionate about making science accessible to everyone, from developing the next generation of fusion energy scientists to bringing scientific demonstrations to audiences of all ages. Patrick Poole is a Research Physicist at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), where he conducts plasma physics experiments at the National Ignition Facility (NIF), the world’s largest and most energetic laser system. At LLNL Patrick’s research spans high-energy-density (HED) and plasma physics, including materials science under extreme x-ray and neutron irradiation, radiography of complex hydrodynamic phenomena, photonics based on novel plasma optics, and high-average-power laser and experiment development for extreme ultraviolet lithography. Patrick also serves as Workforce and Outreach Lead for the Livermore Institute of Fusion Technology, developing the future fusion energy workforce; Coordinator of LLNL experiments at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics, supporting fundamental science and NIF campaigns; and Director of the NIF and Photon Science Summer Scholar Program, bringing hundreds of students annually to conduct cutting-edge research alongside LLNL scientists. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
