RIKEN's two physicists have achieved extremely short laser pulses with a peak power of 6 terawatts (6 trillion watts) - roughly equivalent to the power generated by 6000 nuclear power plants. This achievement will contribute to the further development of attosecond lasers, for which three researchers were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2023. This study was published in the journal Nature Ph...
