Physics:Laser snow
From HandWiki
Laser snow is the precipitation through a chemical reaction, condensation and coagulation process, of clustered atoms or molecules, induced by passing a laser beam through certain gasses.[1] It was first observed by Tam, Moe and Happer in 1975,[2] and has since been noted in a number of gases.[3]
