The Barty Group Presents at Nuclear Photonics 2023

February 22, 2024 by mseggebr

Barty Group graduate student researcher Trevor Reutershan and Professor Chris Barty presented at Nuclear Photonics 2023, held this year in Durham, North Carolina, home of the Durham Bulls! Seen here are Chris, Trevor, and Barty Group collaborator Dr. Michael Jentschel at a Durham Bulls baseball game. Nuclear Photonics is a biennial conference concerning the pursuit of nuclear science and applications with photons.

Professor Barty opened the conference with his talk “Ultrahigh Intensity Laser Capabilities (world survey).” In this presentation, he reviewed the ultrahigh intensity laser facilities around the world that are capable of pursuing nuclear photonics. Trevor gave the talk “2D and 3D Imaging by Nuclear Resonance Absorption/Fluorescence Using Extremely Brilliant Compton Sources.” This talk discussed how the narrowband nature of the absorption and emission of electromagnetic radiation by atomic nuclei can be used in conjunction with spectrally filtered light from Extremely Brilliant Compton Sources for imaging, with a particular emphasis on medical imaging.

Both Professor Barty and Trevor were coauthors of the talk “Combination of a Diffraction Based Ultra-Narrow Band Width Filter with a Laser Compton Photon Source,” presented by Dr. Michael Jentschel, which discussed an effort to create a flexible ultra-narrowband, high energy photon source by filtering a high a spectral density Laser Compton Source (LCS) with an ultra-high precision crystal diffractometer. The talk also discussed ways that a crystal diffractometer could be used to manipulate a high energy beam from an LCS.
