Michigan laser beam believed to set record for intensity

“I don't know of another place in the universe that would have this intensity of light. We believe this is a record.”

The new amplifier of the HERCULES laser fires. The laser is now capable of producing a beam so intense scientists believe it sets a world record. via PhysOrg Weblog
