| Description | Developed, tested and made available a very high performance computer model of lasers and high temperature plasmas. Used the model to design a novel electron mirror to control and collimate the relativistic electrons from an ultra high power laser beam. |
| Exploitation Route | The plasma code Epoch is now widely used by universities in the UK and Europe. |
