Two-million degrees Fahrenheit
That is temperature produced by a new laser beam, according to the U.S. Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator
The department, which on Wednesday announced the successful experiment of the fastest and purest x-ray laser pulses ever achieved, said the laser could achieve temperatures as hot as 3.6 million degrees Fahrenheit — hotter than the sun’s corona. Scientists say the laser beam is billion times brighter that any other man-made X-ray source, making it the brightest entity ever created.
