Dispersion (optics)

  1. PbPc fiber laser produced stable femtosecond pulses and near-infrared supercontinuum
    Lead phthalocyanine saturable absorber enables stable femtosecond pulse generation in fiber laser and broadband near-infrared supercontinuum synthesis.
  2. Automation lowers rents and widens inequality less within groups
    Automation targets high-wage jobs, dissipates worker rents, and offsets productivity gains. Analysis of U.S. data shows automation explains half of wage inequality growth since 1980.
  3. Skewness and kurtosis explain much of lifespan disparity
    Analysis of 41 countries shows how skewness and kurtosis of age-at-death distributions explain mortality compression trends and lifespan disparity patterns from 1751–2019.
  4. Cold ions enable ion-acoustic waves in asymmetric reconnection
    Particle-in-cell simulations characterize ion-acoustic wave excitation and energy transfer mechanisms in asymmetric magnetic reconnection with cold ion populations.
