    Milestone 10-GeV experiment shines light on laser-plasma interactions
    https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/12/241211124511.htm
    Summary:
    With dual lasers, researchers have accelerated a high-quality beam of electrons to 10 billion electronvolts in just 30 centimeters.
    The experiment gives scientists a 'frame-by-frame' look at how a petawatt laser interacts with a long plasma channel,
    knowledge that's crucial for building future compact particle accelerators.

    Using one laser to create a tunnel for an other laser in a plasma..
