Scientists demonstrated X-ray four-wave mixing to track correlated electron motion, revealing how energy and information move inside atoms and molecules. Much of the behaviour of matter arises not ...

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's National Ignition Facility (NIF) is the hottest place on Earth for the briefest of moments during an experiment. Now, it can be one of the brightest places ...

LCLS-II-HE is the second upgrade in as many years for a laser beam in Menlo Park, California, that reveals some of nature's most microscopic mysteries in sharp detail. Reading time 3 minutes A new ...

Scientists directly observed tiny lattice deformations in quantum dots caused by electron-hole pairs, key for advancing solar cells and LEDs. (Nanowerk News) When light hits solar cells, so-called ...

X-ray beams aren’t used just by doctors to see inside your body and tell whether you have a broken bone. More powerful beams made up of very short flashes of X-rays can help scientists peer into the ...

Since the 1980s, researchers have sought to use laser light to control chemical reactions relevant to photochemistry, ...

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

Much of the behaviour of matter arises not from electrons acting alone, but from the ways they influence each other. From chemical systems to advanced materials, their interactions shape how molecules ...
