Laser beam interactions with plasma are at the forefront of contemporary high-energy density physics, offering transformative potential in areas ranging from inertial confinement fusion to advanced ...

Experts at the BELLA Center used dual laser beams focused onto a sheet of gas to reach a milestone energy in laser-driven electron acceleration. Four members of the larger team gathered with the ...

A meta-analysis of RCTs supports holmium laser as safer and more effective in a few key aspects compared with the plasma technique for initial management of NMIBC. Holmium laser resection of ...

Laser plasma acceleration is a potentially disruptive technology: It could be used to build far more compact accelerators and open up new use cases in fundamental research, industry and health.

Helmholtz Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR), which conducts long-term research in the fields of energy, health and matter, has announced the development of a new diagnostic tool specified for a ...

British startup Tokamak Energy is testing a new type of laser that it says is “crucial” to stabilising fusion reactions — the same atom-fusing process that powers the Sun and promises to deliver ...

Physicists at the UK’s Central Laser Facility have recorded the first observation of quantum radiation reaction, detecting how electrons lose energy in ways that classical physics cannot explain when ...
