摘要:
Since 1913, Bohr's planetary model for atomic structure has been predominant, but recent analyses suggest that collective quantization of atomic valence shells containing two electrons may be more valid. The history and evidence for these two extreme paradigms are presented and some of the potentially observable consequences are discussed briefly.

摘要:
This paper provides an introduction to methods for stabilizing continuous-wave single-mode lasers and discusses the fundamental limits on the maximum stability achievable. Both passive and active methods are described, the latter being treated by separating the problems of error discrimination and error correction. Means of evaluating stability are briefly reviewed and examples of applications of stabilized lasers are presented.

摘要:
The historical development of neutron sources for research is outlined, with emphasis on the dependence of future progress on the successful exploitation of the new breed of pulsed sources. The principles and instrumentation of scattering experiments at pulsed sources using the time-of-flight method are described in detail. Examples of novel scientific results, recently obtained at the ISIS source, are presented to illustrate the power and potential of pulsed neutron scattering.

摘要:
The collapse of the core of a massive star and the subsequent birth of a neutron star in a supernova explosion are discussed, and a model of the supernova mechanism is developed. The basic theory is then compared with the particular case of SN 1987 A, whose emitted neutrinos permitted the first direct test of the model.
