Abstract :
A system description and first results of the Asterix III high-power iodine laser built at IPP Garching are given. This laser is designed to yield an output energy of 1 kJ in about 1 ns. Until now pulses with output energies up to 300 J and pulse lengths ranging from 1 to 3 ns have been obtained.
