Adaptive compensation of intracavity tilts during lasing through detecting the direction of output beams
Abstract:
We present adaptive compensation of intracavity tilts based on detecting the direction of the output beams. We use the initial direction of the output beam when the laser cavity is well collimated for reference. Then the difference between the actual direction of the output beam and the reference is used as feedback to control the intracavity tip/tilt mirror. The relation between the direction of the output beam and the intracavity tilt is investigated with both the Fox-Li method and measurements. A series of experiments demonstrate that intracavity tilts can be well compensated by the proposed method. We have also proved that it is possible to substitute the proposed method for conventional extracavity beam stabilization.

Cardiac Output I:Effect of Heart Rate on Cardiac Output
Cardiac output (CO) refers to the total amount of blood ejected by one of the ventricles in liters per minute (L/min). In a resting adult, CO ranges from 5 to 6 L/min, adjusting according to the body's metabolic requirements.
Effect of Heart Rate on Cardiac Output
