Laser experiment to explain dark-matter mysteries 31 Jul 2006 A dark matter particle known as the axion, formed by the interaction of a laser and a magnetic field in high vacuum, could be the key to a ...

Object Details Manufacturer Lockheed Martin Summary This is a one-quarter segment of the primary mirror used in laboratory testing of the Large Optics Demonstration Experiment (LODE). The Department ...

A Chinese satellite has set a new record by transmitting data from 36,000 km using a 2-watt laser, achieving speeds of 1 Gbps. The breakthrough triggered viral claims that it had “pulverized” Starlink ...

Experiment resolves century-old optics mystery 13 Jan 2009 After 100 years of conflicting experimental results, a team from China believe that it has finally unravelled the puzzle surrounding the ...

MIT physicists have performed an idealized version of one of the most famous experiments in quantum physics. Their findings demonstrate, with atomic-level precision, the dual yet evasive nature of ...

The first net-positive shot, for example, required 300 megajoules to power the laser system alone. But they are continued proof that controlled nuclear fusion is more than hypothetical.

Adaptive optics work in telescopes by projecting an artificial star onto the sky using a laser of visible light. The system knows what the laser star should look like, so the system can actively ...

Comprehensive coursework Our coursework covers a broad spectrum of topics, including geometric optics, wave optics, laser physics, and photonics, providing you with a solid foundation in both theory ...

Researchers set a record by guiding light in 45-meter-long air wave-guides. It's not at every university that laser pulses powerful enough to burn paper and skin are sent blazing down a hallway ...
