Scientists create first atomic X-ray laser (power, format, applications)

"We envision researchers using this new type of laser for all sorts of interesting things, such as teasing out the details of chemical reactions or watching biological molecules at work," she added. "The shorter the pulses, the faster the changes we can capture. And the purer the light, the sharper the details we can see."

Hmmm. Just came across this. Is this re-written by somebody else or is it a completely different article?

I heard about this. The information I read was this laser could be used to simulate stellar core dynamics , in lieu of neutrino studies. The researchers stated experimentation in order to watch the neutrinos 'phase' into alternate universes. Maybe if they could find a way to increase the output by an order of magnitude , they may possibly be able to open a 'rift' in spacetime , or begin studies in subspace applications. Hopefully , it won't be used as a weapon , but it likely already is.
