There was the Perhapsatron, the "mirror" machine, the Fusor.
The gas dynamic trap (GDT) mirror machine has been proposed by the Budker Institute of nuclear physics, Novosibirsk, as a volumetric neutron source for fusion material test irradiations.
Unlike the conventional mirror machine, however, the proposed device will confine a plasma of such density and temperature as to make the ion-ion collision mean free path much shorter than the plasma length.
LA's longstanding history as the capital of the film industry has made it, quite literally, a land of make-believe, one that can often work to the disadvantage of many who place their full trust and faith in its smoke-and-mirrors machine.
It will use light and mirrors — the machine's network will consist of optical cables rather than copper wires.
PSDs are used in many scientific instruments and technical applications including but not limited to atomic force microscopy, human eye movement monitoring, mirrors or machine tool alignment, vibration analysis, beam position control and so on.
A sky-blue canvas called "Mirror," lying on the stone floor in the center of the gallery, glows like a reflecting pool; a large, squarish canvas on the wall, painted all brown, evokes the earth (above from left "Trans," "Mirror" and "Machine Hash").
Sanders' plan requires a level of cohesion in a liberal base that is economically, socially, and culturally so fractured and fractious that, without a huge overhaul of the Democratic Party, and the sub-network of funding, to mirror the machine of the far right, there is very little hope of success.
The mirrors on the machine that discovered gravitational waves this year, it turns out, have a coating on them that was created by a CSIRO team that was very recently axed.
The album mirrors the washing machine experience in that it lasts 38 minutes that begins with the turn of the wash size selection wheel and ends with the familiar ding of a completed wash cycle.
Each car was mounted in its own tableau of crushed velvet, mirrors, lights, fog machines and other Vegas-style stagecraft.
