For some strange reason the song “Tiny Bubbles” comes to mind. Don’t know why.

When I was in college 35 years ago, one of the chemistry professors got a brand-new argon ion laser. 18kW in, one watt out... an awful lot of visible light at the time.

I watched the technicians install it. I think it was manufactured by Spectra-Physics, but memory is not reliable after this many years.

Anyway, they were adjusting it with the cover off, and I could see - inside the water-jacketed laser tube - these tiny little particles, flitting around within the beam. They were close to the mirrors on each end, and they looked like tiny moths flying around a tiny flame.

I asked one of the techs about them, and he said “oh, those are zombies.” He asked another tech “hey, have they ever figured out what causes the zombies” and the other guy said “no, they’re some kind of tiny particles that they can’t eliminate from the manufacturing process.”

I wonder if they were floating on photon momentum.

Improved laser particle separation and improved optical tweezers. Advances in single biological cell separation. Think improvements in fighting diseases.
