摘要
We simulate a four-channel coherent beam combination (CBC) system designed for femtosecond petawatt lasers. Typical behavior characteristics of the CBC system are revealed. Key parameters relevant to engineering are identified. A simple automatic alignment method is also demonstrated with the virtual CBC system. This work may benefit relevant projects around the world.
