Laser sculpting gives rare control over particle acceleration
Physicists are learning to carve laser beams into intricate shapes that can grab hold of electrons and push them with a ...
Scientists at the University of Oxford have unveiled a pioneering method for capturing the full structure of ultra-intense laser pulses in a single measurement. The breakthrough, published in close ...
The ZEUS laser facility at the University of Michigan has roughly doubled the peak power of any other laser in the U.S. with its first official experiment at 2 petawatts (2 quadrillion watts). At more ...
Dozens of times over the last decade NASA scientists have launched laser beams at a reflector the size of a paperback novel about 240,000 miles (385,000 kilometers) away from Earth. They announced ...
The big picture: With its first 2-petawatt experiment successfully completed, ZEUS is poised to push the boundaries of high-field science, providing researchers with a powerful new tool for discovery ...
When the green laser encounters atoms along its path through the crystal, it gives the electrons in those atoms a bit of extra energy. In their high-energy state, those electrons can absorb blue light ...

The Army’s laser locust just shrank into a drone hunter on wheels
The U.S. Army’s latest laser weapon is no longer a bulky science project strapped to a shipping pallet. It has been squeezed ...
AUSTIN (KXAN) — Deep beneath the surface in a quiet corner of the basement of the Physics, Math and Astronomy building of the University of Texas at Austin, lasers blast electronics with simulated ...
Schematics of the all-optical nonlinear Compton scattering experiment showing laser-driven electron acceleration, electron-laser collision, and Compton scattering to produce gamma rays. In a ...
With $42 million, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Colorado State University and the University of Rochester will work on studies to tap into a bountiful energy source. The National Ignition ...
