This realistics-related article is of very short length and might not be up to the standards of AlmaNet. A ticket has been automatically assigned to editor powell to deal with this matter.
I'll finish this some day. I need to clear my head.
In the context of realistics, a neutral beam is a beam of super-infrared light with a wavelength of 2822 nm. If directed at the calibration spot of a Theodyne prism, the prism will emit a baseline realistics field of R=1. The radius of this field grows proportionally to the beam power, with a beam power of 500 mW generating a field of approximately 2 metres in diameter.
