Disclosed is a method and apparatus for winding glass optical waveguide filaments during drawing thereof. When a spool is full, the apparatus automatically changes spools, attaches the filament being drawn to a spool moved into the winding station, and severs the filament from the full spool.

X-ray apparatus and method for producing discrete images of a human organ in fluctuating motion, e.g., the heart and related vessels. Each image is derived at a selected time related to the cardiac cycle. The images are independently presented on respective discrete areas within a common image plane. A source of X-rays irradiates the organ. A physiological synchronizer produces timing signals with...

Halides of Si and Ti, B, P, or Ge and oxygen or steam are introduced into a reaction vessel and heated in a vapor phase to form fine glass particles by oxidation or hydrolysis. The fine glass particles are deposited on a substrate. The deposited fine glass particles are heated and vitrified into a transparent glass layer, which is etched to form a core having a desired pattern by a reactive sputte...
