A new megahertz laser improves satellite and debris tracking, strengthening orbit predictions and space safety.

Fusion researchers are now firing energy bursts so brief that they make a human blink look leisurely. In the latest ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Engineers at Purdue University have developed a technique that could result in more accurate “ultra-wideband” radio signals for ground-penetrating radar, radio communications ...

A research team led by Prof. Zhang Tianshu from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences ...

Scientists have demonstrated that light alone can reversibly control magnetism in a topological material. Researchers at the ...

Representatives from the Purdue Applied Research Institute’s LASER PULSE program traveled to Vietnam this summer to meet with three research teams working on air or water pollution projects. Led by ...

Some of the X-ray radiation circulating in the cavity is allowed to escape downstream, providing a beam of monochromatic and coherent X-ray pulses. They have called their system X-ray Free-Electron ...

"Within femtoseconds, the laser pulse excites the electrons in the material. Several picoseconds later, the excited electrons transfer their energy to the atomic nuclei." Consequently, this energy ...
