固体激光器用于惯性约束聚变的第二届年会于1996年底在法国巴黎国会中心举行。由法国原子能委员会（CEA）组织的该会吸引了大量在惯性聚变领域工作的世界专家，显示了对这条聚变途径兴趣的程度。许多来自光学、光电子、激光和电子学公司的其它出席者对惯性聚变研究所带来的潜在 The second annual meeting of solid-state lasers for inertial confinement fusion was held at the Congress Center, Paris, France, in late 1996. The association, which was organized by the French Atomic Energy Commission (CEA), attracted a large number of world experts working in the field of inertial fusion and showed how interested this fusion path was. Many potential attendees to inertial fusion research from other attendees at optical, optoelectronics, laser and electronics companies
