Alien planets are far away but extreme lasers on Earth are giving scientists a way to investigate what they're like.
High-energy lasers can burn drones in the sky like a blowtorch. But they can be stymied by weather, and making them at scale ...
The vacuum ultraviolet region is the area of the electromagnetic spectrum lying between X-rays and visible light. It is ...
Researchers have successfully harnessed the power of lasers to deflect lightning strikes. IFLScience reports that Dr. Aurélien Houard and his team at ENSTA Paris have demonstrated that lasers can ...

How Do Lasers Work, and What Are They Used For?
Who doesn't love a humongous laser? Here at ExtremeTech, we're fans of both 1) technology and 2) extremes, and lasers are toward the far end of both spectra. So, do you have a minute? In the spirit of ...
On a typical day at the world’s biggest laser, the National Ignition Facility (NIF) in Livermore, California, you can find scientists casually making star-like conditions using 192 high-powered lasers ...

A new laser range-finding technique, inspired by quantum physics, that can measure distances under strong solar background ...
Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have succeeded in detecting laser-assisted electron scattering (LAES) using ...
Guiding lasers where they need to go is a key part of optics systems, and now engineers at DESY have developed a way to bend laser beams without anything touching them. The light is deflected using an ...
