Bichromatic slowing and collimation to make an intense helium beam.

The bichromatic force has been used to both slow and collimate a beam of metastable 2(3)S He atoms (He*). The collimation capture range is an extraordinary +/-85 m/s corresponding to approximately 0.18 radians from our source. Both slowing and collimation were accomplished in the unprecedented short distance of approximately 5 cm each. The overall brightness increase is x3200, and there is potential for considerably more.

Heart health: treatment.

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the single most common cause of death in England and it has been estimated that about 26 per cent of all deaths each year are caused by CHD (Department of Health 1993). In light of this, it is important that all nurses understand the current investigations and treatment available for people with CHD.
