|
| 5. | Maser is an acronym for microwave amplification by stimulated emission of radiation.
|
| 6. | More recent masers are practically identical to their original design.
|
| 7. | This is the case with water masers, that occur in nature.
|
| 8. | Rods of synthetic ruby are used to make ruby lasers and masers.
|
| 9. | In some cases conditions are suitable for the formation of natural masers.
|
| 10. | It was later extended to explain behavior of the single photon maser.
