When two black holes merge or two neutron stars collide, gravitational waves can be generated. They spread at the speed of ...

Scientists have used a pair of lasers and a supersonic sheet of gas to accelerate electrons to high energies in less than a ...

Radiative shocks are a class of shock waves in which the transport and deposition of radiation play a central role in modulating the shock’s structure and dynamics. These phenomena are not only ...

A laser communications experiment flying aboard NASA’s Psyche mission has beamed back a video to Earth from nearly 19 million miles away — and the short clip stars a cat named Taters. It’s the first ...

Experts at the BELLA Center used dual laser beams focused onto a sheet of gas to reach a milestone energy in laser-driven electron acceleration. Four members of the larger team gathered with the ...
