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.

The role of dermatologists in the evolution of laser surgery.

TL;DR: The role dermatologists have played throughout the history of laser development is an extremely vital one and it is virtually certain that members of this specialty will continue to play a significant future role in the refinement of laser instrumentation and operative techniques that are inevitable to occur.

Friction and inertia for a mirror in a thermal field

TL;DR: In this article, a general expression of the viscosity coefficient valid at any temperature and for any reflectivity function was given, and it was shown that the motional force also contains a non vanishing inertial term.

Interaction of Photons with Electrons in Dielectric Media

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the energy-momentum tensor of a photon in a collisionless isotropic plasma can be interpreted as the sum of the spin tensor and the orbital tensor tensor.

Tropospheric Remote Sensing from Space

TL;DR: The study of the distributions and amounts of trace constituents in the troposphere, using satellite instruments orbiting some 800 km above in space, is a science that has developed within the past twenty or so years and which is having a large influence on both monitoring the global and regional atmospheric environment, and within the research field of atmospheric chemistry as discussed by the authors.

The use of lasers in orthopaedic surgery

TL;DR: Current investigation with laser tissue — photoagglutination and tissue welding — may make it possible to repair torn meniscus by tissue welding with laser energy.
