Superbright Gamma Rays Shine New Light on Medical Imaging
GLASGOW, Scotland, Oct. 6, 2011 — The brightest gamma-ray beam ever produced — more than a quadrillion (thousand billion) times more brilliant than the sun — could open up new possibilities for medicine. Physicists have discovered that ultrashort-duration laser pulses can interact with ionized gas to give off beams so intense that they can pass through 20 cm of lead and would require 1.5 m of concrete to be completely absorbed. The ray could have several uses, such as in medical imaging, radiotherapy and...
