The collective emission from a one-dimensional chain of interacting two-level atoms is investigated. We calculate the light scattered by dissipative few-excitation eigenstates in the far field, and, in particular, focus on signatures of a lattice two-body bound state. We present analytical results for the angle-resolved, temporal decay of the scattered light intensity. Moreover, we find that th...

Link weight evolution is studied in a network of coupled chemical oscillators. Oscillators are perturbed by adjustments in imposed light intensity based on excitatory or inhibitory links to other oscillators undergoing excitation. Experimental and modeling studies demonstrate that the network is capable of producing sustained coordinated activity. The individual nodes of the network exhibit inc...

In this study, the effects of different light regimes on the reproductive activity of a typical Indo- Pacific coral reef rabbitfish, Siganus sutor, were evaluated. Forty- five adult fish were exposed to nine different photoperiod (8L: 16D, 12L: 12D, 16L: 8D) and light intensity (1000, 2000, 3000 lux) combinations with three replicates and five other fishes reared under indoor light condition (C...

Printable, wide band-gap chalcopyrite compound films (CuInGaS2, CIGS) were synthesized on transparent conducting oxide substrates. The wide band-gap and defective nature of the films reveal semi-transparent and bifacial properties that are beneficial for power generating window applications. Importantly, solar cell devices with these films demonstrate a synergistic effect for bifacial illuminat...

Humans rarely confuse variations in light intensity, such as shadows, shading, light sources and specular reflections, from variations in material properties, such as albedo or pigment. This review explores the cues, or regularities in the visual world that evidence suggests vision exploits to discriminate light from material. These cues include luminance relations, figural relations, 3D-shape,...

1. With constant temperature and light intensity, the rate of elongation of a sporangiophore of Phycomyces is constant for many hours. 2. With constant light intensity, values of micro, the "critical thermal increment," have been computed for the elongation of different sporangiophores. These values group themselves closely about the modes 11,000, 16,000, 20,000, 26,000, and 33,000 calories. Sp...
