TLDR
In this paper, the spectral distribution curve of temperature radiation was shown to be similar to the velocity distribution of the electromagnetic spectrum of a single photon, and the formal similarity of spectral distribution curves to Maxwell's velocity distribution curve was revealed.Abstract:
The formal similarity of the spectral distribution curve of temperature radiation to Maxwell’s velocity distribution curve is too striking to have remained hidden very long.read more

Transient first-order interference of two independent thermal light beams
TL;DR: In this paper, the transient first-order interference of two independent thermal light beams in both classical and quantum theories was analyzed, and it was shown that for a certain kind of thermal light, it is impossible to observe the transient First-Order Interference Pattern by superposing two independent Thermal light beams even if the degeneracy parameter of the thermal light is much greater than one.

The Greenhouse Effect Does Exist
TL;DR: The relationship between the greenhouse effect and observed temperature curve is explained and the paper by Gerlich and Tscheuschner [arXiv:0707.1161] critically analyzed.

Einstein's contributions to atomic physics
TL;DR: The authors traces the various ways in which ten papers published by Einstein during the period 1905-1925 influenced the development of the modern atomic paradigm, and illustrates how these discoveries can be made intuitive and pedagogically useful.
Spectral, spatial and temporal control of high-power diode lasers through nonlinear optical feedback
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a high-power diode laser with a broad amplification region supporting transverse modes while the broad spectral gain supports oscillation at many longitudinal frequencies.
