Pulse shaping theory is extended to include rapid waveform update for line-by-line pulse shaping. The fundamental tradeoff between response speed and waveform fidelity is illustrated by several examples.

The extreme electric fields created in high-intensity laser-plasma interactions could generate energetic ions far more compactly than traditional accelerators. Despite this promise, laser-plasma accelerator experiments have been limited to maximum ion energies of ∼100  MeV/nucleon. The central challenge is the low charge-to-mass ratio of ions, which has precluded one of the most successful approaches used for electrons: laser wakefield acceleration.

Vascular compliance is an important predictor of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Pulse pressure index (PPI) is a reliable indicator for evaluating vascular compliance. However, the association between PPI, all-cause mortality (ACM), and cardiovascular mortality (CVM) in patients with hypertension is still unclear.

Background: Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is an extremely rare type of vasculitis characterized by inflammation within small blood vessels or tissues that may cause damage to the lungs, heart, kidneys, and other organs. Here, we present a rare case of EGPA with cardiac involvement that presented with acute heart failure.

Clinical Findings: A 44-year-old woman with a history of bronchial asthma and sinusitis presented with fever, shortness of breath, fatigue, unintentional weight loss, and polyarthritis.

We demonstrate a versatile THz waveguide platform for tailored THz-induced orientation and alignment of gas molecules. The underlying waveguide structure is dispersionless, with a refractive index close to one, and enhances the electric as well as the magnetic field up to a factor of five. These properties increase the detected transient birefringence signal by more than an order of magnitude compared to conventional THz free space focusing.

Thermal engineering can be used to exploit absorption in a silicon optical cavity. In this work, the steady state profile of the heat generated by absorption is shaped and used to generate a dynamic heterostructure in a weakly confined silicon optical cavity. This is demonstrated in an edge defect photonic crystal optomechanical cavity to produce phonon lasing and sub-GHz optical pulsing with photon-phonon cooperativity of 0.
