High-precision laser interferometric instruments require optical surfaces with a close to perfect contour, as well as low scattering and absorption. Especially point absorbers are problematic because they heat up at high optical intensities…

Wind-generated waves are often treated as stochastic processes. There is particular interest in their spectral density functions, which are often expressed in some parametric form. Such spectral density functions are used as inputs when…
