Ultra-intense ultrashort lasers have a wide-ranging scope of applications, encompassing basic physics, national security, industrial service, and health care. In basic physics, such lasers have become ...

Neutrinos are the most abundant particles in the universe, with trillions crossing our bodies every moment, but they are ...

Ferenc Krausz helped build tools fast enough to watch electrons move. Now, the Nobel-winning physicist wants to use an ...

Scientists have developed a groundbreaking technique called RAVEN that can capture the full complexity of an ultra-intense laser pulse in a single shot—something previously thought nearly impossible.

Researchers have built a quantum sensor prototype that cancels laser phase noise, advancing atom interferometry for cosmic detection.

In high-intensity laser–matter interactions, including laser-induced particle acceleration, physicists generally want to work with the highest possible focused laser peak power, which is the ratio of ...

Tailored profiles: The working principle of the new metalaser. The designed geometric phase profile is introduced to the metasurface by rotating the hole in each silicon nitride nanodisk. Then the ...

While the world continues to fixate on AI, there are still plenty of high performance computing workloads that need doing and a speedup to any one part can have a big impact, whether it be ...

Producing the subatomic particles called muons is now a lighter lift than ever before. Several teams of researchers have generated muons using small particle accelerators driven by lasers. Typically, ...

Gisela Eckhardt was one of the early pioneers in laser physics, discovering the principle behind the Raman laser in 1962. Valdas Pasiskevicius, Richard Mildren and David Burman tell the largely ...
