Laser Quiz part 2: here come the solutions:
1. LASER = Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation (a)
2. Electron
3. Excited state atom
4. A Photon (I don't think there is a lasing material capable of producing gamma range photons)
5. Diffuse
6. Population Inversion

4. A Photon (I don't think there is a lasing material capable of producing gamma range photons)
5. Diffuse
6. Population Inversion
7. 3 Levels (with just 2 levels, as one approaches population equality, stimulated emission and absorption would start balancing each other out, preventing population inversion and thus there is no amplification of the light)
8. b) The energy gap between excited and ground state
8. b) The energy gap between excited and ground state
9. Creatine (semiconductor structures can be designed so that they can lase)
10. 1960' (the first-ever laser, built by Ted Maiman using a ruby crystal, is still operational: spie.org/news/las24-mai…)

🌟: Pluto losing its planet status and receiving an (impersonal) asteroid number was used as a metaphor for the alienation of an individual from a community or a significant other.
Here are some lyrics:
"Without a name to myself, I still orbit you
[...]
There’s no name allowed for me
I, too, used to be your star
[...]
My cold heart is at -248 degrees [Celsius]
it stopped on the day you erased me"
