• Aimed shot on single molecules
  

  Nowadays, large laser systems provide ultra-short light pulses of very high intensity, which – in principle – allow the imaging of matter and its dynamics on atomic scales, down to a single molecule or a virus. However, current methods fall short in efficiency to overlap a target molecule in a deter more

• Genes linked to cancer could be easier to detect with liquid lasers

  Using a liquid laser, University of Michigan researchers have developed a better way to detect the slight genetic mutations that might predispose a person to a particular type of cancer or other diseases. Their results are published in Angewandte Chemie. This work could advance understanding of the more

• The first atomic X-ray laser

  A group of scientists headed by Nina Rohringer from the Hamburg Center for Free-Electron Laser Science (CFEL) realized the first X-ray laser based on atoms at the Californian research centre SLAC. Using neon atoms, they generated ultra-short X-ray bursts of unique colour purity. In many cases, this more
