Thin-disk single-cavity dual-comb lasers (TDSCs) offer a promising alternative to traditional dual-comb systems, simplifying the setup and enabling power scaling. Their shared resonator components ...

Disk galaxies, like our own Milky Way galaxy, commonly consist of both a thick and thin disk of stars—each with different features, including stellar population and movement. Three major ...

High-mass, single-disk galaxies transformed into dual-disk structures by forming an embedded thin disk around 8 billion years ago in our approximately 14-billion-year-old universe.

Scientists have figured out how to make frozen discs of ice self-propel across a patterned metal surface, according to a new ...

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.

The lower-velocity ISOs (relative to the sun) are expected to come from the thin disk, where stars and their accompanying planetary systems form from gas and dust that contain more heavy elements.

Research & Development Ytterbium thin-disk laser improves detection of atmospheric pollutants 20 Nov 2024 Max Planck Institute integrates broadband, high-frequency modulation of OPO output. Optical ...

Astronomers found that WSB 52, a baby star, launched a gas bubble that looped back and struck its own disk, disrupting planet ...

Outside of their use in some legacy systems and among retro enthusiasts, floppy disks are pretty much obsolete these days – ...

Open star clusters like NGC 2547 (left) form and stay in galactic disks, while globular clusters like 47 Tucanae (NGC 104; right) may be kicked out of such regions and into the halo shortly after ...

"To see thin stellar disks already in place 8 billion years ago, or even earlier, was surprising." Some of the edge-on thin disk and thick disk galaxies studied by the JWST.
