Usage Examples English

Some mirrored pieces can be destroyed by aiming the beam at one of their non-reflective sides, while others will simply absorb the beam harmlessly. Each player also has a beam splitter.
A neutral beam is obtained by neutralisation of a precursor ion beam, commonly accelerated in large electrostatic accelerators.
In laser science, the parameter M2, also known as the beam propagation ratio or beam quality factor is a measure of laser beam quality.
Consider a beam whose cross-sectional area increases in two dimensions, e.g. a solid round beam or a solid square beam.
Most laser beam outputs usually have Gaussian energy distribution.

Low beam (also called dipped beam, passing beam, or meeting beam) headlights provide adequate forward and lateral illumination without dazzling other road users with excessive glare.
When a gaussian beam propagates through a thin lens, the outgoing beam is also a (different) gaussian beam, provided that the beam travels along the cylindrical symmetry axis of the lens.
The beam was typical for early single-acting beam engines, pulling through wrought iron chains running over a curved arch-head at each end of the beam.
Low beam (dipped beam, passing beam, meeting beam) headlamps provide a distribution of light designed to provide forward and lateral illumination, with limits on light directed towards the eyes of other road users to control glare.
