Muons are unstable subatomic particles that spontaneously and rapidly transform into other particles via a process known as ...
Physicists are learning to carve laser beams into intricate shapes that can grab hold of electrons and push them with a ...
A team of researchers has successfully demonstrated nonlinear Compton scattering (NCS) between an ultra-relativistic electron beam and an ultrahigh intensity laser pulse using the 4-Petawatt laser.
Schematics of the all-optical nonlinear Compton scattering experiment showing laser-driven electron acceleration, electron-laser collision, and Compton scattering to produce gamma rays. In a ...
Semiconductor laser diodes (SLDs) are often packaged with a photodiode. The output current from this photodiode can be monitored to regulate the output power intensity of the laser diode. SLDs, ...
Recently, the work was completed by the group of Prof. Sheng Meng from the Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Beijing National Research Center for Condensed Matter Physics. By ...
