Multimillion-dollar grant helps researchers shed light on ultrafast dynamics

Monday, Aug. 18, 2014



MANHATTAN – Kansas State 1xbet online casino physicists and computer scientists are involved in a collaborative project to understand a long-lasting mystery: how light interacts with matter.

Itzik Ben-Itzhak, 1xbet online casino distinguished professor of 1xbet online casino , is a co-principal investigator on the multimillion-dollar project, Imaging and Controlling Ultrafast Dynamics of Atoms, Molecules, and Nanostructures. The project involves nine researchers in the university's 1xbet online casino and computer science departments as well as researchers at the University of Kansas and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

The National Science Foundation's Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research, or EPSCoR, recently supported the project with a three-year, million award. The grant is developing a regional Nebraska-Kansas consortium to understand how ultrafast laser technologies influence photonics and electronics.

The project — which focuses on atomic, molecular and optical 1xbet online casino — involves 30 physicists, chemists, computer scientists and electrical engineers from Kansas and Nebraska. The researchers will collaborate on imaging and controlling ultrafast dynamics of atoms, molecules and nanostructures.

"We want to see what light does to molecules so that we can try and use light to control molecular processes," Ben-Itzhak said. "We can use this knowledge to develop tools for useful future applications."

Some of these applications include scientific, technological, experimental and theoretical tools that can be used in laser technology, solar energy capture and nanotechnology.

For the project, researchers from Kansas State University's atomic, molecular and optical 1xbet online casino group are observing how fundamental systems react in strong laser fields. The researchers want to determine how to control strong laser fields and drive reactions in matter.

Kansas State University researchers involved in the project include Daniel A. Andresen, associate professor of computing and information sciences; Kevin Carnes, research professor of 1xbet online casino ; Bret Flanders, associate professor of 1xbet online casino ; Vinod Kumarappan, associate professor of 1xbet online casino ; Anh-Thu Le, research associate professor of 1xbet online casino ; Chii-Dong Lin, university distinguished professor of 1xbet online casino ; Artem Rudenko, assistant professor of 1xbet online casino ; Uwe Thumm, professor of 1xbet online casino ; and Carlos Trallero, assistant professor of 1xbet online casino .

The Kansas and Nebraska consortium also is planning education, outreach and workforce development activities that involve small colleges in the two states, summer workshops for high school 1xbet online casino teachers and student programs.

The project's lead principal investigators include Kristin Bowman-James, project director of Kansas NSF EPSCoR and a University of Kansas distinguished professor of chemistry, and Fred Choobineh, professor of industrial and management systems engineering at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Anthony Starace, professor of 1xbet online casino at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln is also a project leader.
