A quantum trick based on interferometric measurements allows a team of researchers at LMU to detect even the smallest ...

Neutrino lasers: It’s an idea that many physicists didn’t see coming. At first glance, physics suggests that it would be impossible to make a laser of neutrinos, famously elusive subatomic particles.

Data from a recent integrated ground test of the Alpha high-energy laser, its beam director telescope and the associated beam alignment and correction system have provided the team developing the ...

Dozens of times over the last decade NASA scientists have launched laser beams at a reflector the size of a paperback novel about 240,000 miles (385,000 kilometers) away from Earth. They announced ...

Earlier this summer, Israel made military history. Not with a missile, bomb or bullet — but with a beam of light. In a first for modern warfare, the Israel Defense Forces successfully intercepted ...

A screengrab from an Israeli Defense Ministry video showing Iron Beam during tests in 2022. According to an unconfirmed report, Israel’s Iron Beam laser system shot down a rocket fired from Gaza ...
