I tried Fraxel laser for the first time at 34. Here’s what the pain, recovery, and skin results were really like—plus ...

Recent advances in ultrafast laser technology have enabled precise interrogation of molecular dynamics on timescales down to tens of femtoseconds. This field investigates how strong laser fields ...

Strong field laser physics investigates the interaction between intense laser pulses and matter, a domain where non-linear phenomena such as multiphoton absorption, tunnelling ionisation, and ...

Strong laser fields were supposed to be the cleanest way to watch electrons move, yet the latest experiments show that the vacuum itself can quietly reshape what those fields do. By flooding matter ...

Guiding lasers where they need to go is a key part of optics systems, and now engineers at DESY have developed a way to bend laser beams without anything touching them. The light is deflected using an ...

A laser light beam passes between a loudspeaker-reflector array that creates a grating of air. The laser beam interacts with this grating and is deflected without contact. Using a novel method, beams ...

Muons are unstable subatomic particles that spontaneously and rapidly transform into other particles via a process known as ...

A newly funded research project combines the theoretical expertise of University of Rochester scientists with the theoretical and experimental capabilities of ELI Beamlines in the Czech Republic.

Ultrashort bursts of laser light are giving scientists a way to freeze one of chemistry’s most elusive moments, the instant when two molecules briefly share electrons before flying apart. By catching ...
