He switched on his torch, and a beam of light lit up the corner of the room.

That's the Rapture. Those are the gigantic beams of blue light.

Specimens are cut into extremely thin sections, and the transmission electron microscope aims an electron beam through a section, just as a light microscope aims a beam of light through a specimen.

You all know how when you take a crystal prism and pass a beam of sunlight through it, you get a spectrum, which looks like a continuous band of rainbow colors.

OK, so we’ve got a spectrum of a beam of sunlight and it looks like the colors bleed into each other.

He directed the tiny beam of light at the roof.

The machine forms an intense beam of light.

When the metal is hit by the beam, it emits electrons.

The electromagnets bend the electron beam to magnify and focus an image onto a viewing screen or photographic film.

It uses an electron beam to scan the surface of a cell or group of cells that have been coated with metal. The metal stops the beam from going through the cells.

Instead of light, the electron microscope uses a beam of electrons and has a much higher resolving power than the light microscope.

The ceilings are supported by oak beams.

As a method of spanning space, the arch can support greater weight than a horizontal beam.

For example, glass could be used to open up walls and eliminate their stone and brick masonry because large spaces could now be spanned with steel beams.

For example, in traditional architecture, stone or brick walls served a structural role, but in a steel-beam building the walls were essentially hung from the internal skeleton of steel beams, which meant that walls and corners no longer needed to be solid but could be opened up in unexpected ways.

Similarly, steel beams could be used to construct balconies that projected out from the building without any support beneath them.

A structure built with steel beams protected by terra-cotta tiles was still three times lighter than a comparably sized building that used masonry construction, so the weight of the tiles was not a problem.

The room shown in it closely resembles the room in other Vermeer paintings, with lighting coming from a window on the left, the same roof beams, and similar floor tiles, suggesting that the room was fitted with a camera obscura on the side in the foreground.

The doorways and windows are made possible by placing over the open spaces thick stone beams that support the weight from above.

Kenta's face broke into a huge beam.

The interview was beamed live across America.
