Laboratory for Laser Energetics

Measuring carbon at the highest pressures ever achieved in a laboratory, researchers at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics report first model of the carbon structures that may make up planets outside the solar system.

Dustin Froula received the Ernest Orlando Lawrence Award, one of the most respected awards given by the US Department of Energy, for his research.

The Department of Energy funding, distributed to the Laser Lab and other LaserNetUS institutions, will provide beamtime for researchers across the globe to conduct laser experiments using network facilities.

Nonprofit research and educational foundation highlights “demonstrated leadership in applying results to laser facilities.”

The University is the host institution for a NSF-funded national collaboration to explore ‘revolutionary states of matter.’

Laboratory for Laser Energetics pioneers Ricardo Betti and Wolfgang Theobald honored by American and European Physical Societies.

Time sharing, staggered shifts, and reconfigured spaces are among the adaptations in place as research resumes at Rochester.

The University of Rochester’s Laboratory for Laser Energetics has joined the American Physical Society's IDEA initiative, a new program to increase workforce diversity in physics departments and laboratories.

The High-Energy-Density Physics Theory Group at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics studied how matter under high-pressure conditions might emit or absorb radiation.

Two awards from the Department of Energy will help Rochester scientists work to develop timely, commercially viable fusion energy.
