Laser cooling refers to a number of techniques in which atomic and molecular samples are cooled down to near absolute zero through the interaction with one or more laser fields.
The first example of laser cooling, and also still the most common method (so much so that it is still often referred to simply as 'laser cooling') is Doppler cooling. Other methods of laser cooling include:
* Sisyphus cooling
* Resolved sideband cooling
* Velocity selective coherent population trapping (VSCPT)
* Anti-Stokes inelastic light scattering (typically in the form of fluorescence or Raman scattering)
* Ca...
To anyone still interested on the progress to bring back the site, we are working now piecing together what we have been able to rescue from the server and I have hired a tech quite versed on the way to port one site to another making sure all files and codes are in the proper place. www.bluesky.com is not longer available. The new website address is www.blueskytex.com and my new address in case anyone has any questions for which I may have the answer is president@blueskytex.com.

Is there a way to make an array in LaTeX.
I want to write a function that does this (here the array has only 2 elements but I want to be able to have many as I want).
\foo{\MakeArray{foo,bar}}
foo|bar-foo&bar
I could have done this like that
\newcommand\foo[2]{\1-\2}
\foo{foo|bar}{foo&ba...
@Christian ah yes but like the rest of the examples they are not really documentation so much as test examples and the * just help differentiate tab;e rows from lines in p columns
@Christian not an extravagance, just not possible(well only just tex3 (which allowed 8bit fonts and encodings) came out in 1989, so just as longtable was being written)
@DavidCarlisle I would argue that more tables showing off different features would be an improvement but then who reads these docs anyways these days. Most people come straight to tex.sx ;)
@Christian remeber that at the time that was written, not everyone had sun worksations and a msdos pc would often take 15minutes per page, "more tables" in the documentation wasn't necessarily a good idea.
@DavidCarlisle I wasn't referring to TeX in particular but I didn't even know that. But I guess in TeX you never really needed more than 7 bits, did you? Didn't Knuth show off Chinese characters in The Art of Computer Programming?
And by "show off" I mean exactly that, there was no real reason to write those names in Chinese characters in the index ;)
@Christian yes but most likely not as a font. You need 8bits if you want to hyphenate accented words, not so much if you are happy with positioned accents made by the typesetter placing an accent over a base letter.
I have many images which I would like to include in a latex document.
\begin{figure}[h]
\centering
\includegraphics[scale=0.15]{DSC_0001.jpg}
\end{figure}
This block of code only differs in the image number 0002 or 0003 etc. Is there an easy way to loop through, repeating this block of code bu...
Assume I have many TeX files. For the sake of simplicity, also asssume they are in a single folder or directory.
I want to input all files from within my main LaTeX document. Actually I can create a list of those files using C# in advance.
To enrich my view about LaTeX or TeX, could you tell me...
I have about a hundred images named 001.png to 123.png. I want to create a document which includes each image in center of a page. i.e. a 123 page document with each image on a single page.
I know that doing this is possible using macros but I have no clue how to do that. Any help is appreciated...
I have a set of pictures in my working directory and I want to make a PDF report using these images. I want to include all of them, but the number of the pictures changes in each case. I would like to make a "for" loop to insert each picture one after the other sequentially. Can anyone can help m...
I would like a simple script to "scrape" every image in a directory into a single beamer presentation as follows:
$ ls
%img1.jpg
%img2.jpg
%img3.jpg
$ *run script*
%OUTPUT SOMETHING LIKE THIS:
\documentclass{beamer}
% for themes, etc.
\mode<presentation>
{ \usetheme{boxes} }

What does this graph look like?
Are the data available in a form that makes an answer possible?
