Frequency stabilized solid state lasers for coherent optical communication

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the search for Timothy Day's thesis on frequency stabilized solid-state lasers for coherent optical communication. The original poster is seeking access to this thesis to enhance their understanding of laser stabilization. Despite recommendations from others, they were unable to find it online for free. A mention of Scholar.google.com indicates that a paid option for the PDF is available for $41.00, which some consider reasonable if the thesis is essential for their research. Accessing this thesis could significantly aid in grasping the fundamentals of the topic.

Hey guys. I have a question related to electricity and alternating current. Say an alien fictional society developed electricity, and settled on a standard like 73V AC current at 46 Hz. How would appliances be designed, and what impact would the lower frequency and voltage have on transformers, wiring, TVs, computers, LEDs, motors, and heating, assuming the laws of physics and technology are the same as on Earth?
While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...
I used to be an HVAC technician. One time I had a service call in which there was no power to the thermostat. The thermostat did not have power because the fuse in the air handler was blown. The fuse in the air handler was blown because there was a low voltage short. The rubber coating on one of the thermostat wires was chewed off by a rodent. The exposed metal in the thermostat wire was touching the metal cabinet of the air handler. This was a low voltage short. This low voltage...
