Prospects of photon counting lidar for savanna ecosystem structural studies by D. Gwenzi, M. A. Lefsky

“…We used data from the Multiple Altimeter Beam Experimental Lidar (MABEL), an airborne photon counting lidar sensor developed by NASA Goddard. MABEL fires laser pulses in the green (532 nm) and near infrared (1064 nm) bands at a nominal repetition rate of 10 kHz and records the travel time of individual photons that are reflected back to the sensor. …”

Ultrafast charge carrier and coherent phonon dynamics study of semiconductor nanostructures using femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy by Dong, Shuo

“…To investigate coherent electronic motion in low-dimensional semiconductors, we employ transient absorption spectroscopy with few-cycle laser pulses.

A functional characterisation of retrorubral field dopaminergic neurons by Bryden, LA

“…Anaesthetised in vivo electrophysiological validation experiments demonstrated that ArchT-transduced dopaminergic neurons reliably pause their firing in response to brief (250 ms), physiologically-relevant yellow laser pulses. In freely-moving mice, ‘positive control’ experiments in which VTA dopaminergic neurons were briefly (250 ms) paused did not induce place aversion in either a bias conditioned place preference test or real-time place preference test.…”
