Abstract;A tabletop, ultra-fast and ultra-intense laser is capable of generation of high-energy electron. X ray, Gamma ray, high-energy ion, neutron and positron. Hot electron with temperature of 350keV was generated using 50-fs, 90mJ laser with 10Hz repetition rate. High-energy protons with energy of 10MeV were also generated with 4J laser energy. 11C which is a positron emitter was produced through 10B(d,n)11C. New fields of science and engineering will be developed by high-energy particle generation suing T-cubed laser. (author abst.)
