Lasers could heat objects to temperatures higher than sun’s, in less than 20 quadrillionths of a second
A few months back, we talked about the 200-trillion-watt Trident Laser that is capable of producing plasmas several times hotter than the sun’s core. This time around, a group of scientists has devised an entirely new technique that could enable lasers to heat certain types of materials to temperatures higher than the sun’s center, in…
