  1. Amplified spontaneous emission

    Amplified spontaneous emission ASE or superluminescence is light , produced by spontaneous emission , that has been optical amplifier optically amplified by the process of stimulated emission in a gain medium . It is inherent in the field of random laser s. Origins and problems ASE is produced when a laser gain medium is laser pumping pumped to produce a population inversion . Feedback of the ASE by the laser s optical cavity may produce laser operation if the lasing threshold is reached. Excess ASE is an unwanted effect in lasers, since it limits the maximum gain that can be achieved in the gain medium. ASE creates serious problems in any laser with high gain and or large size. In this case, a mechanism to absorb or extract the incoherent ASE must be provided, otherwise the excited state excitation of the gain medium will be depleted by the incoherent ASE rather than by the desired Coherence physics coherent laser radiation . ASE is especially problematic in lasers with short and wide optical cavities, such as disk laser s active mirrors . ref name uns cite journal author D.Kouznetsov coauthors J.F.Bisson, K.Takaichi, K.Ueda title Single mode solid state laser with short wide unstable cavity url http josab.osa.org abstract.cfm?id 84730 journal JOSAB volume 22 issue 8 pages 1605 1619 year 2005 doi 10.1364 JOSAB.22.001605 bibcode 2005JOSAB..22.1605K ref .

  1. Spontaneous magnetization

    Spontaneous magnetization is the term used to describe the appearance of an ordered Spin physics spin state magnetization at zero applied magnetic field in a ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic material below a critical point physics critical point called the Curie temperature or math var T sub C sub var . At temperatures above math var T sub C sub var , the material is paramagnetic and its magnetic behavior is dominated by spin wave s or magnon s, which are boson collective excitations with energies in the meV range. The magnetization that occurs below math var T sub C sub var is a famous example of the spontaneous symmetry breaking spontaneous breaking of a global symmetry, a phenomenon that is described by Goldstone s theorem . The term symmetry breaking refers to the choice of a magnetization direction by the spins, which have spherical symmetry above math var T sub C sub var , but a preferred axis the magnetization direction below math var T sub C sub var . To first order, the temperature dependence of spontaneous magnetization at low temperatures is given by Felix Bloch Bloch s Law ref harvnb Ashcroft Mermin 1976 p 708 ref math M T M 0 left 1 T T c right 3 2 , math where math M 0 is the spontaneous magnetization at absolute zero. The decrease in spontaneous magnetization at higher temperatures is caused by the increasing excitation of spin waves. In a particle description, the spin waves correspond to magnons, which are the massless Goldstone boson s corresponding to the continuous symmetry broken symmetry .

The audience typically submits titles of songs that have never been written, and the performers choose suggestions to create songs, the audience votes through acclamation on their favourite song, which is then used as the core of a brand new Broadway theatre Broadway musical. The format received a favorable review from The New York Times when it premiered in New York in 1995. ref cite news url http theater2.nytimes.com mem theater treview.html? r 1&res 990CE4D7113BF93BA35750C0A963958260&oref slogin Dead link date September 2010 bot RjwilmsiBot ref Though not required or necessarily encouraged by improv professionals, elements of humor inevitably surface in the performance because of the surprising and playful nature of improvisation and its use of typical Broadway stereotypes. The performers songs are supported by an onstage musician or band that improvises the music, generally in the style of typical show tunes. The format was created in New York City and has been performed by a number of different companies around the US. The Spontaneous Broadway format was created by Kat Koppett in association with Freestyle Repertory Theatre in New York.

  1. Spontaneous hypoglycemia

    The text of this new article was adapted from a clarification given by User alteripse on Talk Seale Harris Spontaneous hypoglycemia as of 17 29, 7 February 2010 UTC The term spontaneous hypoglycemia was coined by the physician Seale Harris . ref name alstatearchive cite web title Seale Harris work Alabama State Archives url http www.archives.state.al.us famous s harris.html accessdate 2010 02 11 Who stated their source to be Alabama Hall of Fame , 1968 ref It is a vague term that, today 2010 , is not considered very useful by doctors interested in hypoglycemia . Though it still has historical value. In some contexts it refers to hypoglycemia that is not induced by exogenous insulin i.e., diabetic hypoglycemia . In other contexts it is equivalent to idiopathic hypoglycemia i.e., Idiopathic of unknown cause . And some people use it to encompass idiopathic hypoglycemia with measured low blood glucose, reactive hypoglycemia with measured low glucose, And it may refer to idiopathic postprandial syndrome . Bottom line The term is considered to be too imprecise to be very useful. History When Seale Harris was writing about hypoglycemia, the only two kinds that were well understood were diabetic hypoglycemia and hypoglycemia resulting from insulinoma . He asserted that were likely other types as well. His assertion was widely enough accepted that the diagnosis was assigned to, or claimed by, a large number of patients with otherwise unexplained adrenergic symptoms. His contemporary, a surgeon named Allen Whipple Allen Oldfather Whipple , formulated the Whipple criteria as a sieve to sort out those who might have an insulinoma requiring surgery from those with symptoms but not measured low blood glucose.

  1. Spontaneous potential

    Spontaneous potential SP , also called self potential , is a naturally occurring Electric potential electric potential difference in the Earth, measured by an electrode relative to a fixed reference electrode. Although SP differences have been measured along the Earth s surface in mineral exploration, today it is used almost exclusively by the oil and gas industry for formation evaluation in boreholes. SP was first recognized by Conrad Schlumberger , Marcel Schlumberger, and E.G. Leonardon in 1931, and the first published examples were from Russian oil fields. Physics Spontaneous potentials SP are usually caused by charge separation in clay or other minerals, due to presence of semi permeable interface impeding the diffusion of ions through the pore space of rocks, or by natural flow of a conducting fluid through the rocks. The origin of SP across formation can be attributed to two processes involving the movement of ions Streaming potential E sub k sub Electrochemical potential E sub c sub Streaming potential originates from the flow of an electrolyte water over naturally charged solids i.e., surfaces that acquired electrokinetic potential electrokinetic or zeta potential .

  1. Exoelectron emission

    In atomic physics , exoelectron emission EE is a weak electron emission, appearing only from pretreated irradiated, deformed etc objects. ref name Oster1999 citation last Oster first L. year 1999 title Classification of Exoelectron Emission Mechanisms journal Phys.

M. last3 Mizandari first3 L. A. last4 Tsertsvadze first4 A. A. ref The pretreatment excitation turns the objects into an unequilibrial state. EE accompanies the relaxation of these unequilibria. The relaxation can be stimulated e.g. by slight heating or longwave illumination, not causing emission from untreated samples. Accordingly, thermo and photostimulated EE TSEE, PSEE are distinguished. Thus, EE is an electron emission analogue of such optical phenomena as phosphorescence , thermo and photostimulated luminescence .

  1. Proton emission

    Proton emission also known as proton radioactivity is a type of radioactive decay in which a proton is ejected from a atomic nucleus nucleus . Image Zerfallsschema.png left thumb 300px The decay of a proton rich nucleus A populates excited states of a daughter nucleus B by emission or electron capture EC . Those excited states that lie below the separation energy for protons Sp decay by emission towards the groundstate of daughter B. For the higher excited states a competitive decay channel of proton emission to the granddaughter C exists, called delayed proton emission. Proton emission can occur from high lying excited states in a nucleus following a beta decay , in which case the process is known as beta delayed proton emission, or can occur from the ground state or a low lying nuclear isomer isomer of very proton rich nuclei, in which case the process is very similar to alpha decay . For a proton to escape a nucleus, the proton separation energy must be negative the proton is therefore unbound, and Quantum tunneling tunnels out of the nucleus in a finite time. Proton emission is not seen in naturally occurring isotopes proton emitters can be produced via nuclear reaction s, usually utilising some kind of particle accelerator . Although prompt i.e. not beta delayed proton emission was observed from an isomer in Cobalt Isotopes Cobalt 53 as early as 1969, no other proton emitting states were found until 1981, when the proton radioactive ground states of Lutetium Isotopes Lutetium 151 and Thulium Isotopes Thulium 147 were observed at experiments at the Gesellschaft f r Schwerionenforschung GSI in West Germany. Fact date December 2007 Research in the field flourished after this breakthrough, and to date more than 25 isotopes have been found to exhibit proton emission. The study of proton emission has aided the understanding of nuclear deformation, masses and structure, and it is a wonderfully pure example of quantum tunneling . In 2002, the simultaneous emission ...   more details
