Tell us a bit about green beam lasers. How are they different? Red beam line lasers have been standard on the jobsite for years, but newer green beam lasers are up to four times brighter than red ...

There are many applications for particle accelerators, even outside research facilities, but for the longest time they have been large, cumbersome machines, not to mention very expensive to operate.

Physicists have built a tractor beam out of lasers that can both repel and attract objects across distances 100 times farther than previously possible. Michelle Starr is CNET's science editor, and she ...

The world’s most powerful X-ray laser beam has been used to create a microscopic “black hole.” The machine uses extremely bright, fast flashes of light to take atomic-level snapshots of some of nature ...

The free-electron laser (FEL) interaction 1,2 is one of the most efficient mechanisms of transferring energy from a relativistic electron beam to a radiation pulse, and as such forms the physical ...

Scientists use a ghost laser beam to spot tiny flaws while keeping a free-electron laser stable for hours. For decades, ...

Every laser cutter enthusiast eventually pops the question: how on earth do I align an invisible beam that’s more-than-happy to zap my eyeballs, not to mention torch everything else in its path? We ...

Scientists at the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology (ILT) have devised a striking new addition to contact stamping technologies in the recently-completed ERDF research project "ScanCut". In ...
