Continuum source molecular beam facility, examining effect of source-skimmer distance variation on flux and spatial distribution of beam in collimation chamber downstream
Crossed beam correlation method measures turbulent fluctuations in transonic and supersonic flows. Two collimated beams of radiation are crossed at the point of interest in the flow, and the power loss of each beam is measured with two independent photodetectors, which yield information about the turbulent properties.
Star/horizon simulator is used for alignment and optical plus photoelectric tests of the sextant for the Apollo guidance and navigation system optical unit assembly. The unit is basically a refractive collimator with a two inch objective lens system and a twenty-four inch focal length.
Broad X ray source produces a highly collimated beam of low energy X rays - a beam with 2 to 5 arc minutes of divergence at energies between 1 and 6 keV in less than 5 feet. The X ray beam is generated by electron bombardment of a target from a large area electron gun.
Laser method, where high energies of monochromatic light can be precisely collimated to perform welding and machining processes, is proposed for rotary dynamic balancing. The unbalance, as detected with the velocity pickup, would trigger the laser system which would emit high energy pulses directed at the heavy side of the component.
Monitoring device detects and indicates directly the amount of contamination deposited on a surface. It uses an optical system in conjunction with a reliable collimated light source and associated electronics. Change in its output signal is proportional to change in the optical absorption characteristics of the sample plate surface.
High angular resolution studies of celestial X ray sources and design of aspect camera, proportional collimators, telemetry, and attitude control systems
Reflector antenna of the parabolic type offers complete control of its aperature illumination function. The antennas beam width can be changed easily by excitation of various amounts of the line-source feed. The conical reflector collimates a beam when the feed complies with certain geometric constraints.
System will collimate and direct an argon laser beam with high angular tracking accuracy at objects on the moons surface. It can be adapted to missile and satellite tracking.

Diffusion filter comprised of small particles in colloidal suspension reduces the coherence of a laser beam used as a photographic light source. Interference patterns which obscure details in photographic film are eliminated, the intensity and collimation are moderately affected.
Screen permits front surface projection of collimated light beam under conditions of high extraneous illumination. Screen has high reflective efficiency over any desired viewing area. Its optical properties are maintained when moisture droplets are present on the external front planar surface. Surface is easily cleaned and maintained.
