Concurrent to that, there seems to be renewed interest in doing experiments with soft X-Rays (light in the wavelength ... some of the biggest, baddest laser experiments you will ever meet.

The world's brightest laser — which is so powerful that it can produce light pulses that are 1 billion times brighter than the surface of the sun — can "transform" visible light into X-rays ...

Radiologists and biologists have been dreaming - ever since the discovery of lasers - of a compact laboratory source emitting X-rays in one direction in a laser-like beam. Such a source would ...

the US Air Force deployed the technology for its giant flying laser programme. Lasers, Death Rays, and the Long, Strange Quest for the Ultimate Weapon is not an easy story to tell, given the vast ...

The device generates 16.9 nanometre laser pulses with energies of up to one millijoule at a repetition rate of 4Hz. Synchrotron sources of soft X-rays can also yield high average powers but need very ...

This week has been laser week at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, with two very different laser-based programs hitting major milestones: an inexpensive array of lasers on a single ...

It was designed to produce x-rays tailored for high-resolution and time-resolved x-ray imaging. "Even though they are much smaller than a synchrotron, the new laser accelerators produce x-rays in ...

To keep commerce flowing while maintaining an eye on nuclear terrorism and smuggling, a team of scientists at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) is developing a laser-based X-ray machine ...

Whereas the wavelengths of traditional lasers run the gamut from infrared to X-rays, a gamma-ray laser relies on light waves even smaller than X-rays. For instance, the antimatter-powered laser ...
