Methane emissionsIncreasing methane emissions are a major contributor to the rising concentration of greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere, and are responsible for up to one-third of near-term global heating. During 2019, about 60% (360 million tons) of methane released globally was from human activities, while natural sources contributed about 40% (230 million tons). Reducing methane emissions by capturing and utilizing the gas can produce simultaneous environmental and economic benefits.
Ultravioletvignette|redresse=1.5|Diagramme montrant le spectre électromagnétique dans lequel se distinguent plusieurs domaines spectraux (dont celui des UV) en fonction des longueurs d'onde (avec des exemples de tailles), les fréquences correspondantes, et les températures du corps noir dont l'émission est maximum à ces longueurs d'onde. Le rayonnement ultraviolet (UV), également appelé « lumière noire » parce que généralement invisible à l’œil nu, est un rayonnement électromagnétique de longueur d'onde inférieure à celle de la lumière visible, mais supérieure à celle des .
Diffraction-limited systemIn optics, any optical instrument or system a microscope, telescope, or camera has a principal limit to its resolution due to the physics of diffraction. An optical instrument is said to be diffraction-limited if it has reached this limit of resolution performance. Other factors may affect an optical system's performance, such as lens imperfections or aberrations, but these are caused by errors in the manufacture or calculation of a lens, whereas the diffraction limit is the maximum resolution possible for a theoretically perfect, or ideal, optical system.
