We propose a three-beam stimulated resonant photon collider with focused laser fields in order to directly produce an axion-like particle (ALP) with the two beams and to stimulate its decay by the remaining one. The expected sensitivity…
We study the resonance production of radions via $\gamma\gamma$ fusion in the Randall-Sundrum model. We find that the cross section of the process in the $\gamma\gamma$ mode of a linear collider (LC) can be of similar size as in the…
Imaging of nuclear gamma-ray lines in the 1-10 MeV range is far from being established in both medical and physical applications. In proton therapy, 4.4 MeV gamma rays are emitted from the excited nucleus of either 12^C^* or 11^B^* and are…
