If the scientific understanding of the properties of lasers were inaccurate, then the laser measurement would be inaccurate but the others would not.

If the width of the slits is small enough ( less than the wavelength of the laser light ), the slits diffract the light into cylindrical waves.

If a laser is swept across a distant object, the spot of laser light can easily be made to move across the object at a speed greater than c. Similarly, a shadow projected onto a distant object can be made to move across the object faster than c. In neither case does the light travel from the source to the object faster than c, nor does any information travel faster than light.

If testing showed that the central processing unit was working but the FPU was defective, the FPU's power and bus connections were destroyed with a laser and the chip was sold cheaper as an SX ; if the FPU worked it was sold as a DX.

If the applied pump power is too small, the gain will never be sufficient to overcome the resonator losses, and laser light will not be produced.

If the number of photons being amplified per unit time is greater than the number of photons being absorbed, then the net result is a continuously increasing number of photons being produced ; the laser medium is said to have a gain of greater than unity.

If such an Interstellar Internet exists, the hypothesis states, communications between servers are mostly through narrow-band, highly directional radio or laser links.

If the launch fibre is underfilled, for example as a consequence of being energized by a laser diode or edge-emitting LED, there will be no effect on the mode power distribution or loss measurements.

If multimode fiber bandwidth is measured using a laser diode directly coupled to its input, the resulting measurement can vary by as much as an order of magnitude.

If a photographic plate or another 2-D optical sensor is located within the scattered light field without a lens, a speckle pattern is obtained whose characteristics depend on the geometry of the system and the wavelength of the laser.

If the MiniDisc player were bumped, playback could continue unimpeded while the laser repositioned itself to continue reading data from the disc.

If the mole is incompletely removed by the laser, and the pigmented lesion regrows, it might form a recurrent nevus.

If toner spills into the laser printer, a special type of vacuum cleaner with an electrically conductive hose and a high efficiency ( HEPA ) filter may be needed for effective cleaning.

If detected, laser treatment, radiation and surgeries can be used to treat the tumor.

If instead of oscillating independently, each mode operates with a fixed phase between it and the other modes, the laser output behaves quite differently.

If there are N modes locked with a frequency separation Δν, the overall mode-locked bandwidth is NΔν, and the wider this bandwidth, the shorter the pulse duration from the laser.

If the Q factor of a laser's cavity is abruptly changed from a low value to a high one, the laser will emit a pulse of light that is much more intense than the laser's normal continuous output.

If a purchased item does not break the laser beam when falling, the spirals will automatically turn, usually three times to ensure that a product will fall.

If the lesion can be completely removed via surgical resection, cryotherapy, laser ablation, or some other locally-targeted treatment modality before frank invasion and metastasis develops, cure rates for CIS approach 100 %.

If light of a fixed frequency / wavelength / color ( as from a laser ) is assumed, then the time-harmonic ( frequency-domain ) form of the optical field is given as:

If the aircraft detects the targeting laser, it has the whole period of the missile flight time to engage in avoidance maneuvers, which adds additional challenge to the missile operator's target-tracking task.

If laser light is employed, it is possible to selectively excite a molecule so as to produce a desired electronic and vibrational state.

If launched, LISA will be the first dedicated space-based gravitational-wave detector ; it will measure gravitational waves by using laser interferometry to monitor the fluctuations in the relative distances between three spacecraft, arranged in an equilateral triangle with 5 million kilometer arms, and flying along an Earth-like heliocentric orbit.

If the emitted light is of a specific visible wavelength it may be called colorimetry, or it may involve specific wavelength of light e. g. by use of laser and emission of fluorescent signals of another specific wavelength which is detected via very specific wavelength optical filters.

If private brand competition hasn't been felt in your product field as yet, have you thought how you will cope with it if and when it does appear??

If Af is the change per unit volume in Gibbs function caused by the shear field at constant P and T, and **yr is the density of the fluid, then the total potential energy of the system above the reference height is Af.

If laying ties on a railroad track, which he once did for $1 an hour, paid more than playing right field for the Yankees, Maris would lay ties on a railroad track.

If working in a zinc mine, which he once did for 87-1/2 cents an hour, paid more than playing center field for the Yankees, Mantle would work in a zinc mine.

If K is a number field, its ring of integers is the subring of algebraic integers in K, and is frequently denoted as O < sub > K </ sub >.

If one quantizes a real scalar field, then one finds that there is only one kind of annihilation operator ; therefore, real scalar fields describe neutral bosons.

If under the existing system he could not assemble forces quickly enough to intercept mobile Viking raiders, the obvious answer was to have a standing field force.

If a is algebraic over K, then K, the set of all polynomials in a with coefficients in K, is not only a ring but a field: an algebraic extension of K which has finite degree over K. In the special case where K = Q is the field of rational numbers, Q is an example of an algebraic number field.

If a Game 5 is needed, the teams return to the higher seed's field.

If a Game 5 is needed, the teams return to the higher seed's field.

If X and Y are Banach spaces over the same ground field K, the set of all continuous K-linear maps T: X → Y is denoted by B ( X, Y ).

If X is a Banach space and K is the underlying field ( either the real or the complex numbers ), then K is itself a Banach space ( using the absolute value as norm ) and we can define the continuous dual space as X ′ = B ( X, K ), the space of continuous linear maps into K.

If a bubble touches identically-colored bubbles, forming a group of three or more, those bubbles — as well as any bubbles hanging from them — are removed from the field of play, and points are awarded.

If the ball has left the field along the sidelines, the referee must decide which team touched the ball last, and award a restart stroke to the opposing team, just like football's throw-in.

If the vector field represents the flow velocity of a moving fluid, then the curl is the circulation density of the fluid.

If φ is a scalar valued function and F is a vector field, then

If one set is used, pieces race across the field into empty, opposite corners.

If a team fails to gain ten yards in two downs they usually punt the ball on third down or try to kick a field goal ( see below ), depending on their position on the field.

* If the offence scores a field goal, the scoring team must kickoff from their own 35-yard line.

If a kicked ball goes out of bounds, or the kicking team scores a single or field goal as a result of the kick, the other team likewise gets possession.

If they make what would normally be a field goal, they score one point ; what would normally be a touchdown scores two points ( a " two-point conversion ").

If not " true " crannogs, small occupied islets ( often at least partially artificial in nature ) may be referred to as island duns, although rather confusingly, 22 islet-based sites are classified as ' proper ' crannogs due to the different interpretations of the inspectors or excavators who drew up field reports Canmore search for crannog in the Western Isles Hebridean island dwellings or crannogs were commonly built on both natural and artificial islets, usually reached by means of a stone causeway.
