Energy from nuclear fusion less distant with the laser as hot as the sun
A team of scientists from Imperial College London has probably made the possibility of obtaining unlimited energy from nuclear fusion less distant thanks to a theoretical model of a laser that can develop 10 million degrees Celsius (probably a higher temperature than what is found to the center of the Sun) in 20 quadrillionths of a second: practically instantaneously. The development represents a step forward towards the dream of obtaining energy from thermonuclear fusion: a clean, sustainable and unlimited source… Read more
The ship laser passes the first test.
It may not be able to cut through a thick sheet of steel any time soon, but the US Navy has demonstrated that its solid laser can incinerate small boats. MLD (Demonstrative Maritime Laser) is a 15 kilowatt beam designed specifically to equip ships: its 'civilian' use could ward off pirate attacks, but it remains a full-blown weapon designed to offend and destroy. Last Thursday MLD passed its first test, annihilating a small boat with a… Read more
LipoControl: a laser will sculpt our body
Freshly approved by US health authorities, a new laser application could become the next winning weapon in removing unwanted fat. Osyris Medical, an American company specializing in medical instruments, has produced LipoControl, a device for laser-assisted lipolysis, the elimination of unwanted fat cells: it is an auxiliary tool that does not avoid the use of the operating room, but allows (unlike the cannula used in liposuction) to 'break down' targeted groups of fat cells, facilitating the operation and cleaning of the ...
