Wavelength sensitivity in blindsight [PDF]
Nature, 1989 Blindsight--the residual visual functions observed in visualfield defects resulting from destruction of part of the primary visual cortex (striate cortex) even though visual stimuli presented in the field defect are not consciously perceived--has generated new insights into the nature of consciousness and the role of the extrastriate pathways in visual

New rest wavelength determinations for 7 mid-infrared fine structure lines by ISO-SWS [PDF]
Astrophys.J.Suppl. 136 (2001) 221, 2001 Observations of the planetary nebulae NGC6302, NGC6543 and NGC7027 by the Short Wavelength Spectrometer (SWS) on board the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) have been used to determine rest wavelengths of spectral lines. We report on improved accuracies for wavelengths of 7 mid-infrared ionic fine structure lines.

Modulation instability induced by cross-phase modulation in a dual-wavelength dispersion-managed soliton fiber ring laser [PDF]
Appl. Phys. B, 2010, 2010 We report on the observation of modulation instability induced by cross-phase modulation in a dual-wavelength operation dispersion-managed soliton fiber ring laser with net negative cavity dispersion. The passively mode-locked operation is achieved by using nonlinear polarization rotation technique. A new type of dual-wavelength operation, where one is
