2 unusual facts about Magneto-optical trap


Magnetic trap

Magneto-optical trap (or MOT), a trap using a magnetic gradient and laser light to trap neutral atoms

Magneto-optical trap

As a result of low densities and speeds of atoms achieved by optical cooling, the mean free path in a ball of MOT cooled atoms is very long, and atoms may be treated as ballistic.


BCMaterials

Magnetic Nano-Particles (MNP) have a diverse range of uses from magneto-rheological fluids, MRI contrast or hyperthermia in cancer therapy, to drug delivery.

BSA A65 Star

The decision by Lucas in the late 1950s to switch production of motorcycle electrical components (from magneto/dynamo systems to alternators/coil systems) forced British motorcycle manufacturers to completely redesign their engines.

Children of the Vault

When Rogue and Magneto bring Indra and other students back to Indra's home in Mumbai to visit his family and, unbeknownst to anyone at the time, take his brother's place in an arranged marriage, the X-Men and students visit a local market where strange storms have been placing people, including Indra's brother, in comas.

Dick Simon

He made his race debut the following spring driving a second-hand Vollstedt chassis at Phoenix International Raceway but was sidelined by magneto failure after only 4 laps.

Ednaswap

One of the tracks from Wacko Magneto, "Torn", was covered by Natalie Imbruglia, reached number two in the UK Singles Chart and number one on airplay around the world.

Fabian Cortez

Cortez also appears in X-Men 2: Clone Wars for Sega Genesis as a boss during stage 3, before Magneto is recruited as a playable character.

Hiero 6

The engine had the typical features of an inline vertical 6-cylinder: aluminum bed, cast iron cylinders, one inlet and one exhaust valve per cylinder controlled by bars and rockers, with the cam-shaft in the bed, and dual ignition by two Bosch magnetos.

Lady Mastermind

In the Age of X reality, Regan is present when Magneto creates Fortress X.

Lambeth, London, Ontario

The Byron Telephone Company had installed its first automatic dial exchange in Lambeth in the late 1950s, the Oliver 2 exchange, which replaced the manual magneto phone system that continued to operate in the Byron area until September 1963.

Legacy Virus

The instant cure gave Magneto a vast army overnight and allowed him to begin carrying out his plans for world conquest in the Eve of Destruction crossover.

Martin Aeschlimann

Currently, time-resolved photoemission and time-resolved magneto-optical effects are implemented with laser pulses in visible light and the soft X-ray region.

Megan Spencer

In June 2006 Spencer was criticised for a live on-air review for the movie X-Men: The Last Stand, in which she commented "Jews used to be oppressed and now they are the oppressors" (in reference to the character Magneto, a Jewish holocaust survivor).

Norton Atlas

The look was completed with a heavy-duty WM3-18 rear wheel, and a Lucas Competition magneto was supplied as standard.

Plasmonic lens

Its intended uses are focusing, imaging, light beam shaping, subwavelength optics, subwavelength light wave guiding, novel optical and magneto-optic data storage, light generation, microscopy, biophotonics, biological molecule sensors, and solar cells, as well as other applications.

Richard J. Gambino

In 1992 Gambino received the IEEE Morris N. Liebmann Memorial Award together with Praveen Chaudhari and Jerome J. Cuomo, "for the discovery of amorphous magnetic films used in magneto-optic data storage systems".

Yevgraf Yevgrafovich Fyodorov

Researcher in the Magneto-Meteorological Observatory, Pavlovsk 1911-1934, professor of geography with the USSR Academy of Sciences 1934-1951.
