    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orion_(laser)

    [2] Orion delivers 10 "long-pulse" one-nanosecond duration beams and two petawatt (PW) "short-pulse" 0.5 picosecond duration beams. The facility also provides a comprehensive suite of optical, particle, and x-ray plasma diagnostics to understand the plasma conditions created through the laser interaction.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Station_of_Extreme_Light

    The Station of Extreme Light (SEL, 极端光物理线站) is laser facility aimed at producing a laser with 100 petawatts (PW) of peak power. The station is currently under construction in Shanghai, China. [1] The laser may be powerful enough to produce matter and antimatter directly from a vacuum [2] (the Schwinger effect).

  7. Pratt & Whitney PW1000G - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pratt_&_Whitney_PW1000G

    P&W first attempted to build a production geared turbofan starting around 1998, with the PW8000, [2] targeted for the 25,000–35,000 lbf (110–160 kN) range. This was an upgrade of the existing PW6000 that replaced the fan section with a gear box and a new single-stage fan, which would provide about 90% of the propulsive power of the engine ...

  8. Intensity (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intensity_(physics)

    In physics and many other areas of science and engineering the intensity or flux of radiant energy is the power transferred per unit area, where the area is measured on the plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the energy. [a] In the SI system, it has units watts per square metre (W/m 2), or kg⋅s −3 in base units.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-ray_ground-reflection...

    The 2-ray ground reflection model is a simplified propagation model used to estimate the path loss between a transmitter and a receiver in wireless communication systems, in order to estimate the actual communication paths used. It assumes that the signal propagates through two paths:
