The emission of radiation by application of different types of stress on certain crystals and phosphors is called mechanoluminescence (ML). There are certain crystals which exhibit repetitive emission of radiation at the release and pressing of the crystal. The present paper reports that the emission of light by the repetitive application of stress on the camphor crystal. The emission takes place by the application of static stress as well as impulsive stress. In the case of both stresses, the emission is observed a number of times but with decreasing intensity. The emission was studied by the static and impulsive devices being used in our own laboratory.

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
