Physicists are learning to carve laser beams into intricate shapes that can grab hold of electrons and push them with a ...

In high-intensity laser–matter interactions, including laser-induced particle acceleration, physicists generally want to work ...

Laser-assisted particle interactions and scattering represent a rapidly emerging field in high-energy and quantum physics, where the interplay between intense electromagnetic fields and particle ...

Researchers from Trinity College Dublin's School of Engineering have built a powerful new machine that lets us watch precisely what happens when tiny particles—far smaller than a grain of sand—hit a ...

One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the ...

A green spectacle. With protective eyewear, ISTA PHD student Andrea Stöllner takes a glimpse into the experimental chamber (in the foreground) where two laser beams trap a single particle. One ...
