Article Abstract
Laser plasma acceleration (LPA) is rapidly evolving from proof-of-principle experiments to stable and reliable accelerator operation. An important next step in this evolution is to increase the repetition rate to enable performance improvements through active stabilization of electron parameters using fast feedback loops. Today, laser-plasma accelerators are typically driven by Ti:sapphire lasers, but their high quantum defect and pump laser requirements limit the repetition rate and average power. Here, we present a Ti:sapphire laser system that pushes these limits and delivers 750 mJ laser pulses at a repetition rate of 100 Hz and a spectrum that supports sub-30 fs duration. High beam quality is achieved by careful thermal management and control of thermal lensing in the cryogenically cooled amplifier crystal.

Placebo Effect of Carbohydrates on Muscle Force Production in Male Collegiate Athletes: The Role of Misinformation and Feedback-Reinforced Cues.
Physiol Behav

Faculty of Sports and Exercise Science, University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Electronic address:
A carbohydrate placebo (CHO-PLA) is a non-metabolic substance guised as carbohydrate. When information about the treatment was not disclosed, CHO-PLA enhanced strength performance through the sweetness cue, which psychologically strengthened participants' belief in its efficacy. However, the effects of CHO-PLA when participants are misinformed that they are consuming actual carbohydrates, and the role of additional cues (visual reinforcement), remain less understood.

Tabata-based High-Intensity Functional Training (HIFT) elicits hybrid adaptations in both cardiorespiratory and neuromuscular systems. However, its high Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) may limit its feasibility. This study aimed to analyze the acute physiological and psychological responses to a modified low-volume Tabata-based HIFT incorporating short efforts, with a focus on potential differences between sexes.

Speech disorders differ between Parkinson's disease (PD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA), but studies focusing on group differences based on syllables or including cerebellar ataxia (CA) are lacking until now. This cross-sectional study aimed to analyze syllable-based speech characteristics in patients with PD, MSA, and CA, as well as healthy controls, to determine their diagnostic utility. Speech samples were collected from 68 PD, 52 MSA, 23 CA, and 70 healthy controls.

Objectives: To explore the acute effects of a heavy-load resistance protocol and exercise in the supine position on fetal heart rate (FHR) and uteroplacental blood flow.
Method: In this experimental laboratory study, 48 healthy pregnant athletes (elite: n=7; recreational: n=41) completed 3×8 repetitions with one repetition in reserve in sumo deadlift, bench press and incline bench press. FHR and umbilical and uterine artery pulsatility index (PI) were assessed before and after exercise.
In the Reign of Velocity: Ballistic Training Enhances Rapid Force Production in Chronically Strength-Trained Athletes.

Purpose: Rapid force production relies upon neuromuscular mechanisms differing from those underlying maximal strength. In chronically strength-trained individuals, specific adaptations in rapid force variables (RFVs)-both absolute and normalized to maximal force capacity-following resistance training with ballistic versus controlled contractions remain underexplored. Therefore, we examined whether improvements in maximal propulsive power (MaxPP) coincide with RFV responses, specifically, rate of force development (RFD) and impulse.
