Los Angeles County Medical Examiner Building in 2008. The Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner (“DMEC”, formerly the Department of Medical Examiner-Coroner and Department of Coroner) was created in its present form on December 17, 1920, by an ordinance approved by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, although it has existed in some form since the appointment of the ...
A sport version is available which includes a battened Mylar sail and upgraded running rigging. The Ocean Play manufactured Pico uses a vertical battened dacron sail as standard. Laser Performance used to be the manufacturer of the Pico, and sold over 15,000 of these boats, but stopped supplying in 2022. The RS Marine Group under the brand name ...
A laser-pushed lightsail is a thin reflective sail similar to a solar sail, in which the sail is being pushed by a laser, rather than the sun.The advantage of lightsail propulsion is that the vehicle does not carry either the energy source or the reaction mass for propulsion, and hence the limitations of the Tsiolkovsky rocket equation to achieving high velocities are avoided.
Flashlamp, laser diode Mostly used for pulsed pumping of certain types of pulsed Ti:sapphire lasers, combined with frequency doubling. Neodymium-doped yttrium orthovanadate (Nd:YVO 4) laser 1.064 μm laser diode Mostly used for continuous pumping of mode-locked Ti:sapphire or dye lasers, in combination with frequency doubling. Also used pulsed ...
Laser rods (from left to right): Ruby, alexandrite, Er:YAG, Nd:YAG. A solid-state laser is a laser that uses a gain medium that is a solid, rather than a liquid as in dye lasers or a gas as in gas lasers. [1] Semiconductor-based lasers are also in the solid state, but are generally considered as a separate class from solid-state lasers, called ...
An ultrashort pulse laser is a laser that emits ultrashort pulses of light, generally of the order of femtoseconds to one picosecond.
Laser line levels are used in surveying and construction. Lasers are also used for guidance for aircraft. Extensively in both consumer and industrial imaging equipment. In laser printers: gas and diode lasers play a key role in manufacturing high resolution printing plates and in image scanning equipment.
The laser is cat rigged, with a single mainsail and is a simple, light and fast boat to sail. The Laser Standard is the original of the Laser family of dinghies , which also includes the Laser Radial and Laser 4.7, both of which use the same hull, but have smaller rigs.
