And in the longer term, they could lead to bright, ultrafast, short - wavelength lasers that are much more compact, and perhaps even electronic devices that operate millions of times faster than current technology, says David Reis, a co-author of the report and deputy director of the Stanford PULSE Institute, a joint institute of SLAC and Stanford.

The team at the Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology (KIPAC), a joint institute of SLAC and Stanford, used neural networks to analyze images of strong gravitational lensing, where the image of a faraway galaxy is multiplied and distorted into rings and arcs by the gravity of a massive object, such as a galaxy cluster, that's closer to us.

At JILA, a joint institute between the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the University of Colorado at Boulder, we were in a unique position to take the technological advances in two branches of laser physics and run with them. (scientificamerican.com)
