This award provides NSF support for the 2019 Brightest Light Initiative (BLI) Path-Forward Workshop to be held at the Optical Society headquarters in Washington, DC on March 27-29, 2019. The workshop will be organized in two tracks to define (1) the scientific research needs for intense ultrafast lasers emphasizing parameters beyond the current state of the art in areas critical to frontier science, and (2) the technology research needs to realize these parameters, including peak power, repetition rate, pulse duration, wavelength, and focusable intensity. A workshop report will summarize the findings of the workshop and recommend a path forward on a roadmap for action.This workshop will aim to: (i) Articulate a community response to the 2017 National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine report on Opportunities in Intense Ultrafast Lasers: Reaching for the Brightest Light; (ii) Identify compelling science, fundamental and applied research opportunities constituting priority research directions that exploit high-intensity lasers leading to high impact over the next decade and beyond;(iii) Define new and upgraded facility and laser capabilities that will enable compelling science, emphasizing parameters beyond the current state of the art; and(iv) Identify laser research and development to realize both ultra-high intensities for basic research and high repetition rates, as well as high-average powers needed for applications.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项为将于2019年3月27日至29日在华盛顿光学学会总部举行的2019年Brilliant Light Initiative（BLI）Path-Forward研讨会提供NSF支持。 该研讨会将分两个轨道组织，以确定（1）强超快激光器的科学研究需求，强调在前沿科学关键领域超越当前技术水平的参数，以及（2）技术研究需要实现这些参数，包括峰值功率，重复率，脉冲持续时间，波长和可聚焦强度。研讨会报告将总结研讨会的研究结果，并就行动路线图提出建议。本次研讨会的目标是：（i）阐明社区对2017年美国国家科学院、工程院和医学院报告《强超快激光的机遇：实现Brilliant Light》的回应; ㈡确定具有吸引力的科学、基础和应用研究机会，这些机会构成优先研究方向，利用高强度激光，在今后十年及以后产生重大影响; ㈢确定新的和升级的设施和激光能力，以促成引人注目的科学，强调超越目前最先进水平的参数;以及（iv）确定激光研究和开发，以实现用于基础研究的超高强度和高重复率，以及高-该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识产权进行评估来支持。优点和更广泛的影响审查标准。
