Attosecond hard X-ray pulses reach record-high intensities
Physics World · By Isabelle Dumé ·
The Brief
- Attosecond hard X-ray pulses have reached record-high intensities, according to Physics World (published 2026-11-12).
- The pulses are described as ultrafast flashes of light that could enable studies of electron behaviour in atoms.
- The technique is also said to could support ultrafast imaging of structures within materials.
Why it matters
Attosecond hard X-ray pulses could give science readers a way to observe electron motion and fast internal structures in materials that were previously hard to resolve.
Who’s affected
- researchers in ultrafast science and X-ray physics
- materials scientists interested in ultrafast imaging
