Description
Recent advances in high-energy and high-peak-power laser systems have opened up new possibilities for fundamental physics research. In this presentation, I will focus on gravitational waves signals emitted by high-intensity (twisted) beams and show how the properties of the generated gravitational waves are controllable by the laser pulse parameters and optical arrangements. Notably, the possibility to use intense beams of light to create a generation/detection setup of has recently been discussed. Is a setup like this truly achievable in the coming decades? How close are we, exactly? In this talk I will provide an overview of where things currently stand on this question.
