Muons are elementary particles that resemble electrons, but they are heavier and decay very rapidly (i.e., in just a few microseconds). Studying muons can help to test and refine the standard of ...

TU Wien (Vienna) has succeeded in generating laser-synchronized ion pulses with a duration of well under 500 picoseconds, which can be used to observe chemical processes on material surfaces. The work ...

The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded the University of Rochester nearly $18 million over three years to design and prototype key technologies for EP-OPAL, a new facility dedicated to the ...

System at Hungary-based laser centre delivers 15 TW peak power at 1 kHz repetition with 8 fs pulse duration. SYLOS 3, a high-intensity laser system with “groundbreaking parameters” according to its ...

A school gym-sized facility tucked away at the University of Michigan is quietly pushing the boundaries of what lasers can do. Known as ZEUS—short for Zettawatt Equivalent Ultrashort laser pulse ...

To address these challenges, Nuvoton Technology has introduced a compact violet laser diode delivering 1.7 W optical output ...

Nanoparticles exhibit distinct physical and chemical properties compared to bulk materials, making them valuable in applications such as electronics, photovoltaics, catalysis, and biomedical sciences.

Israel has crossed a historic threshold in modern warfare with the delivery of the world’s first fully operational high-power ...
