A new way of producing coherent light in the ultra-violet spectral region, which points the way to developing brilliant table-top x-ray sources. A new way of producing coherent light in the ...

Free electron lasers (FELs) generate short-wavelength radiation with extreme brilliance on ultrafast timescales. Developed over the past three decades, FELs provide an important research tool for ...

Representation of domain walls within a ferromagnetic layered material. New research shows that when these materials are hit with a free electron laser, magnetic domain walls move much faster than ...

A technological milestone has been achieved at the Fritz Haber Institute (FHI) of the Max Planck Society in Berlin. For the first time, an infrared Free-Electron Laser (FEL) has been operated in a two ...

The Boeing Company, Huntsville, Alabama, is being awarded a more than $23 million task order for the critical design of a 100-kW class Free Electron Laser (FEL) device to demonstrate scaleability of ...

The European XFEL is being prepared for scientific operation after a longer break. We were there one last time beforehand.

New research shows how to measure the super-short bursts of high-frequency light emitted from free electron lasers (FELs). By using the light-induced ionization itself to create a femtosecond optical ...
