Are image-stabilized binoculars worth it for stargazing?

For backyard astronomers, the promise of image-stabilized binoculars is simple: sharper, steadier views of the night sky ...

Electrons dynamics control by shaping femtosecond laser pulses in micro/nanofabrication: modeling, method, measurement and application

During femtosecond laser fabrication, photons are mainly absorbed by electrons, and the subsequent energy transfer from electrons to ions is of picosecond order. Hence, lattice motion is negligible ...
