  1. Amplified spontaneous emission

    Amplified spontaneous emission ASE or superluminescence is light , produced by spontaneous emission , that has been optical amplifier optically amplified by the process of stimulated emission in a gain medium . It is inherent in the field of random laser s. Origins and problems ASE is produced when a laser gain medium is laser pumping pumped to produce a population inversion . Feedback of the ASE by the laser s optical cavity may produce laser operation if the lasing threshold is reached. Excess ASE is an unwanted effect in lasers, since it limits the maximum gain that can be achieved in the gain medium. ASE creates serious problems in any laser with high gain and or large size. In this case, a mechanism to absorb or extract the incoherent ASE must be provided, otherwise the excited state excitation of the gain medium will be depleted by the incoherent ASE rather than by the desired Coherence physics coherent laser radiation . ASE is especially problematic in lasers with short and wide optical cavities, such as disk laser s active mirrors . ref name uns cite journal author D.Kouznetsov coauthors J.F.Bisson, K.Takaichi, K.Ueda title Single mode solid state laser with short wide unstable cavity url http josab.osa.org abstract.cfm?id 84730 journal JOSAB volume 22 issue 8 pages 1605 1619 year 2005 doi 10.1364 JOSAB.22.001605 bibcode 2005JOSAB..22.1605K ref .

  1. Spontaneous alternation

    Orphan date September 2011 Spontaneous alternation is a behavioral test which tests spatial learning and memory . This maze task has been extensively used in many laboratories associated with cognition. Spontaneous alternation maze can have the shape of a Y, T, or sign. The radial arm maze is similar but is much more complicated and a harder task because of the many arms. The rat is placed in the middle of the maze and is allowed to move freely through each arm. The purpose of the test is for the rat or mouse to remember which maze arm was last visited and try to enter as many different arms as possible. The task is testing hippocampal memory and can be weakened by lesions to the hippocampus . The sequence of arm entries and total amount of arm entries are scored and a percentage is calculated. The cognition of the animal can be assessed based on the score where a lower score is considered cognitively impaired. A score of 44 is considered chance. Psychology 101 01 Spontaneous alternation is the tendency to choose a different option than one previously chosen. The T Maze uses rats to test this spontaneous alternation. It has been found that infants also use spontaneous alternation when choosing toys to play with. ref Rothbart,Mary. Development of Spontaneous Alternation in Infancy .

  1. Spontaneous magnetization

    Spontaneous magnetization is the term used to describe the appearance of an ordered Spin physics spin state magnetization at zero applied magnetic field in a ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic material below a critical point physics critical point called the Curie temperature or math var T sub C sub var . Overview Heated to temperatures above math var T sub C sub var , ferromagnetic materials become paramagnetic and their magnetic behavior is dominated by spin wave s or magnon s, which are boson collective excitations with energies in the meV range. The magnetization that occurs below math var T sub C sub var is a famous example of the spontaneous symmetry breaking spontaneous breaking of a global symmetry, a phenomenon that is described by Goldstone s theorem . The term symmetry breaking refers to the choice of a magnetization direction by the spins, which have spherical symmetry above math var T sub C sub var , but a preferred axis the magnetization direction below math var T sub C sub var . Temperature dependence To first order, the temperature dependence of spontaneous magnetization at low temperatures is given by Felix Bloch Bloch s Law ref harvnb Ashcroft Mermin 1976 p 708 ref math M T M 0 left 1 T T c right 3 2 , math where math M 0 is the spontaneous magnetization at absolute zero. The decrease in spontaneous magnetization at higher temperatures is caused by the increasing excitation of spin waves. In a particle description, the spin waves correspond to magnons, which are the massless Goldstone boson s corresponding to the continuous symmetry broken symmetry . This is exactly true for an isotropic magnet. Magnetic anisotropy , that is the existence of a easy direction along which the moments align spontaneously in the crystal, corresponds however to massive magnons. This is a way of saying that they cost a minimum amount of energy to excite, hence they are very unlikely to be excited as math T rightarrow 0 math . Hence the magnetization of an anisotropic magnet is harder ...   more details

    Spontaneous Broadway is an advanced long form improvisational theatre improvised performance, usually based on audience suggestions.

The performers songs are supported by an onstage musician or band that improvises the music, generally in the style of typical show tunes. The format was created in New York City and has been performed by a number of different companies around the US. The Spontaneous Broadway format was created by Kat Koppett in association with Freestyle Repertory Theatre in New York.

In some contexts it refers to hypoglycemia that is not induced by exogenous insulin i.e., diabetic hypoglycemia . In other contexts it is equivalent to idiopathic hypoglycemia i.e., Idiopathic of unknown cause . And some people use it to encompass idiopathic hypoglycemia with measured low blood glucose, reactive hypoglycemia with measured low glucose, And it may refer to idiopathic postprandial syndrome . History When Seale Harris was writing about hypoglycemia, the only two kinds that were well understood were diabetic hypoglycemia and hypoglycemia resulting from insulinoma . He asserted that there were likely other types as well. His assertion was widely enough accepted that the diagnosis was assigned to, or claimed by, a large number of patients with otherwise unexplained adrenergic symptoms. His contemporary, a surgeon named Allen Whipple Allen Oldfather Whipple , formulated the Whipple criteria as a sieve to sort out those who might have an insulinoma requiring surgery from those with symptoms but not measured low blood glucose.

  1. Spontaneous potential

    Spontaneous potential SP , also called self potential , is a naturally occurring Electric potential electric potential difference in the Earth, measured by an electrode relative to a fixed reference electrode. Spontaneous potentials are often Well logging measured down boreholes for formation evaluation in the oil and gas industry, and they can also be measured along the Earth s surface for mineral exploration or groundwater investigation. The phenomenon and its application to geology was first recognized by Conrad Schlumberger , Marcel Schlumberger, and E.G. Leonardon in 1931, and the first published examples were from Russian oil fields. Physics Spontaneous potentials SP are usually caused by charge separation in clay or other minerals, due to presence of semi permeable interface impeding the diffusion of ions through the pore space of rocks, or by natural flow of a conducting fluid through the rocks. The origin of SP across formation can be attributed to two processes involving the movement of ions Streaming potential E sub k sub Electrochemical potential E sub c sub Streaming potential originates from the flow of an electrolyte water over naturally charged solids i.e., surfaces that acquired electrokinetic potential electrokinetic or zeta potential .

Two examples of isotopes which emit neutrons are helium 5 and beryllium 13 . However, the decay of helium 5 is also by definition a case of alpha decay. Many heavy isotopes, most notably californium 252 , emit neutrons among the products of a different radioactive decay process, spontaneous fission . Neutrons are absorbed and emitted in the process of nuclear fission , a nuclear chain reaction propagated by neutrons. Delayed neutron s emitted by neutron rich fission product s aid control of nuclear reactor s by making reactivity change much slower than it would be for prompt neutron s alone.

  1. Spurious emission

    Unreferenced date December 2009 A spurious emission is any radio frequency not deliberately created or transmitted, especially in a device which normally does create other frequencies. A harmonic or other signal outside a transmitter s assigned channel would be considered a spurious emission. From ITU, 1.145 Spurious emission Emission on a frequency or frequencies which are outside the necessary bandwidth and the level of which may be reduced without affecting the corresponding transmission of information. Spurious emissions include harmonic emissions, parasitic emissions, intermodulation products and frequency conversion products but exclude out of band emissions.
