Control apparatus for spectral energy source

Automatic light-controlling system for dc arc emission spectrographs controls the vaporization rate of the sample and stabilizes the dc arc. The output energy is regulated such that advantage can be taken of the highly sensitive dc arc source without sacrificing the desired precision

Hard x ray imaging graphics development and literature search

This report presents work performed between June 1990 and June 1991 and has the following objectives: (1) a comprehensive literature search of imaging technology and coded aperture imaging as well as relevant topics relating to solar flares; (2) an analysis of random number generators; and (3) programming simulation models of hard x ray telescopes. All programs are compatible with NASA/MSFC Space Science LAboratory VAX Cluster and are written in VAX FORTRAN and VAX IDL (Interactive Data Language)

Data acquisition and analysis: Solar vector magnetosphere

Magnetic shear was observed in several active regions prior to flaring activity. However, certain flares were observed with no apparent shear present. A more detailed investigation of such events is required

The laser

This article is intended as a review of the field of optical masers, or lasers as they have come to be known, summarizing both theory and practice. It starts with a theoretical section in which black body radiation theory is used to introduce the concepts of spontaneous and induced transitions. This is followed by the derivation of the Schawlow-Townes instability (start-oscillation) condition and a description of the different laser media. Other topics treated include: optical pumping, experimental techniques, output power and noise. The sections on optical resonators and communications which conclude the paper have been slightly emphasized since, perhaps to a larger extent than the other topics covered in this paper, they coincide with traditional areas of interest of microwave and communications engineers
