Laser science awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2018 for groundbreaking inventions in the field of laser physics. The first working laser (a pulsed ruby laser) was demonstrated on May 16, 1960, by Theodore Maiman at the Hughes Research Laboratories. Laser science Laser science or laser physics is a branch of optics that describes the theory and practice of lasers. Laser science is principally concerned with quantum electronics, laser construction, optical cavity design, the physics of producing a population inversion in laser media, and the temporal evolution of the light field in the laser. It is also concerned with the physics
Laser 128 the World is Carmen Sandiego?". "inCider" called the computer "amazingly Apple-compatible", estimating 95% compatibility. Programs that successfully ran on the Laser 128 included "F-15 Strike Eagle", Fantavision, WordPerfect, and "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", and the magazine noted that it was easy to install $25 upgraded ROM chips if necessary to improve compatibility. "A+" similarly found that the computer was compatible with 28 of 30 popular Apple II programs, while only about half worked with the Franklin Ace. "BYTE"s tests were less favorable. Most expansion cards worked properly but the magazine found "mixed results" with software compatibility, stating that
