First light soon at the most powerful laser in the US
The ZEUS laser at the University of Michigan has begun its commissioning experimentsAnatoly Maksimchuk recognized for his achievements in high-intensity lasers and laser-plasma interaction
Building on decades of groundbreaking research, Maksimchuk is a key member of the team building the $20M laser facility known as ZEUSU-M to become Mount Olympus with ZEUS, the most powerful laser to be built in the U.S.
The three-petawatt system could unlock secrets of the universe, advance cancer treatments, improve security screenings for nuclear threats, and much more.
