    [98] [99] [100] The approximate angular width of the jet (that is, the degree of spread of the beam) can be estimated directly by observing the achromatic "jet breaks" in afterglow light curves: a time after which the slowly decaying afterglow begins to fade rapidly as the jet slows and can no longer beam its radiation as effectively.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-beam

    where I is the moment of inertia of the beam cross-section and c is the distance of the top of the beam from the neutral axis (see beam theory for more details). For a beam of cross-sectional area a and height h , the ideal cross-section would have half the area at a distance ⁠ h / 2 ⁠ above the cross-section and the other half at a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nano-I-Beam

    The I-beam, also known as the H-beam [5] or universal beam, is a widely used structural element due to its high strength-to-weight ratio and structural stability. [6] The shape of the I-beam, with its central vertical web and horizontal flanges, provides excellent load-bearing capabilities and resistance to bending and torsion.

  9. Pulsar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsar

    In rotation-powered pulsars, the beam is the result of the rotational energy of the neutron star, which generates an electrical field and very strong magnetic field, resulting in the acceleration of protons and electrons on the star surface and the creation of an electromagnetic beam emanating from the poles of the magnetic field.
