Laser pulses with record-breaking intensity: High-intensity pulses allow astrophysical phenomena to be studied in the lab – Science Daily
Researchers have demonstrated a record-high laser pulse intensity of over 1023 W/cm2 using a petawatt laser. It took more than a decade to reach this laser intensity….
Researchers have demonstrated a record-high laser pulse intensity of over 1023 W/cm2 using the petawatt laser at the Center for Relativistic Laser Science (CoReLS), Institute for Basic Science in the Republic of Korea. It took more than a decade to reach this laser intensity, which is ten times that reported by a team at the University of Michigan in 2004. These ultrahigh intensity light pulses will enable exploration of complex interactions between light and matter in ways not possible before.The…
