The Novette target chamber (metal sphere with diagnostic devices sticking out), which was reused from the Shiva
project and two newly built laser chains visible in background.

Novette was a two beam

Nova laser. Its main intended purpose was to validate the proposed design and expected performance of the then planned Nova laser. In addition to being used for the further study of enhanced laser to target plasma energy coupling utilizing frequency tripled light and examining its benefits with respect to inertial confinement fusion, Novette was also used in the world's first laboratory demonstration of an x-ray laser
in 1984.
