Lasers! Now that we have your attention, welcome to this episode of the Hyperthesis. Join Liam, Pheely, Patrick and our guest Troy Allen who discusses his research on laser welding. This up and coming method has many complexities, and Troy delves deep into how we can take live measurements of laser welds to improve performance and quality. Keeping with the theme of lasers, we discuss a recent paper simulating extremely short but powerful laser pulses and how they can be created with plasma. Finally, we end the episode talking about Theodore Maiman, the inventor of the laser.
