<![CDATA[<\/p>\n

The brightest gamma ray beam ever created, produced in research led by a university, could open up new possibilities for cancer therapy.<\/p>\n

The ray, more than a thousand billion times more brilliant than the sun, could be used in medical imaging, radiotherapy and radioisotope production. The source could also be useful in monitoring stored nuclear waste.<\/p>

\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n

Physicists led by Professor Dino Jaroszynski , of Strathclyde University in Glasgow, have discovered that ultra-short-duration laser pulses can interact with ionised gas to give off beams that are so intense they can pass through 20cm of lead. The researchers also found that it would take 1.5 metres of concrete to completely absorb the beams. Strathclyde was joined in the research by Glasgow University and Instituto Superior Tecnico in Lisbon.<\/p>\n
