A high-power ytterbium thin-disk laser drives an optical parametric oscillator (OPO) to generate high-power, stable pulses in the short-wave infrared (SWIR) spectral range. This allows researchers ...

"With our new understanding of the formation of, and interplay between, galactic thin and thick disks, we have moved much closer to solving one of the most fundamental problems of Galactic ...

Astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have found a mysterious thin disk of material furiously whirling around a supermassive black hole at the heart of a magnificent spiral galaxy located ...

A high-power ytterbium thin-disk laser drives an optical parametric oscillator to generate high-power, stable pulses in the short-wave infrared spectral range. This allows researchers to detect and ...

Optical disks and magnetic tapes are suitable media for the long-term storage of large amounts of data. We are developing thin optical disks using paper-thin 0.1-mm-thick substrate as a means of ...

They formed the Milky Way's thin disk less than 1 billion years after the Big Bang, several billion years earlier than previously believed. The Milky Way galaxy has a large halo, a central bulge ...

An experimental solid-state laser successfully passed a series of repeated test firings. Developed by the Boeing Company, the thin-disk laser is part of the company's effort to develop a ...
