Working in the Lyman laboratory, the researchers used a technique known as electro-magnetically induced transparency, in which they fired a red laser light pulse into a sealed glass cylinder containing rubidium vapor. They fired two control beams through the vapor, rather than the one beam used in previous experiments, so that their interaction simulated the effect of tiny atomic mirrors...
...Overshadowed for weeks by the U.S. rover Spirit, Europe's Mars Express - which has been orbiting the Red Planet since Dec. 25 - finally got its day in the sun. As well as relaying stunning close-ups of Mars, the orbiter detected ice at its south pole and identified water vapor in its atmosphere. The findings reinforce the idea that Mars may have supported life...
...Army official at the Tank-Automotive and Armaments Command in Warren, Mich., who requested anonymity. Fuel cells last longer than the batteries that currently support such operations. The devices can also provide soldiers with water, a much needed resource, especially for those stationed in desert conditions. The water vapor from the fuel cells can be recycled for human consumption...
...experiment on the other hand ‘traps’ actual signal photons inside the rubidium vapor in such a way that the signal pulse overall does not travel,” he said...
...interaction between the two beams within the vapor simulated a surface of tiny mirrors...
