I have been searching for more information about these new laser "sniffers" since first reading about them here. I found some different links describing the technology today. According to the first article, the trial run at Glasgow airport has been successful. I am wildly optimistic that this will be the future of airport security. I'm gonna kiss the next quantum physicist I meet!

This is already being discussed here: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/trave...-sniffers.html. Can we combine this?

The next big thing in molecular spectroscopy!
One of the links in the former thread seems to have come from an ESL site in Asia?? The comments are non-sequitors. Another was an earlier release from Cascade technologies. The original thread veered off-topic?
Not that I'm skeered of bees or anything,
but I have been seeking more information about this technology ever since. I believe this is an important development!
Do we have any physicists in the house? ^
Fantastic! http://pubs.acs.org/cen/science/88/8846sci2.html
