Structured light - light whose spatial and temporal profiles may be simultaneously tailored - offers new capabilities for controlling all degrees of freedom of an optical field and therefore its interaction with matter. Achieving such control requires tunable spatiotemporal spectra.
Separately, Thomson scattering is a known process in which the collision of energetic particle bunches and...
Radiation background poses a challenge in the accurate evaluation of radiation environments, such as in neutron spectroscopy, and beam monitoring. In particular, gamma-radiation background complicates the measurement of low-energy particles. Understanding the methodology for discriminating gamma-radiation background can significantly improve the accuracy of radiation measurements in mixed...
