Politbarometer

The Politbarometer (lit. political barometer) is a long-standing German election poll and at the same time a TV program of the public channel ZDF. The program is aired monthly, mostly on Friday evening. During the program, the survey results are presented. The survey is conducted since 1977 by Forschungsgruppe Wahlen (FGW).

The polling of the Politbarometer includes:

  • The "political mood" in Germany
  • The projection - "if next Sunday were federal elections" (Sonntagsfrage, lit. "Sunday question")
  • Ratings of the most important politicians
  • Survey on current topics from politics and business

gollark: Laser diodes are just things which do that using semiconductors, somewhat like LEDs, and are powered by electricity.
gollark: No. Someone with more physics knowledge could answer better than me, but, very approximately: "laser" stands for "light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation", and describes a specific way to generate light through some magic process using a "gain medium" and optical feedback thing.
gollark: That would not actually be a laser.
gollark: I think you would need a hilariously expensive and large free electron laser for that.
gollark: Lasers are "bright" because the output light is "compacted" into a small area.
