Video Captures Laser Pulses at ‘1 Billion FPS’
Video Captures Laser Pulses at ‘1 Billion FPS’ Hollywood laser blasts give off bright colors and are easy to track with the eye. In real life, laser pulses flash by faster than the eye — or even the fastest camera — can follow. To visualize the propagation of a roughly 12-fs pulse, researchers from the Polish Academy of Sciences and the University of Warsaw used a clever trick to approximate a frame rate of 1 billion fps.
