If you have a very dirty negative that is very important to you and you would like to have it cleaned, I would recommend finding a conservator to treat it for you.

High Redshift Galaxies As Probes Of The Epoch Of Reionization Abstract Following the Big Bang, as the Universe cooled, hydrogen and helium recombined, forming neutral gas. Currently, this gas largely resides between galaxies in a highly diffuse state known as the intergalactic medium (IGM). Observations indicate that the IGM, fueled by early galaxies and/or accreting black holes, ``reionized'' early in cosmic history--the entire volume of the Universe refilling with ionized gas. This thesis analyzes and develops several ways to use observations of high redshift galaxies to probe this period, the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). We examine the redshift evolution of the Ly-alpha fraction, the percentage of Lyman-break selected galaxies (LBGs) that are Lyman-alpha emitting galaxies (LAEs). Observing a sharp drop in this fraction at z ~ 7, many early studies surmised the z ~ 7 IGM must be surprisingly neutral. We model the effect of patchy reionization on Ly-alpha fraction observations, concluding that sample variance reduces the neutral fraction required.

Bokeh has been defined as "the way the lens renders out-of-focus points of light".[6] However, differences in lens aberrations and aperture shape cause some lens designs to blur the image in a way that is pleasing to the eye, while others produce blurring that is unpleasant or distracting—"good" and "bad" bokeh, respectively.[2] Bokeh occurs for parts of the scene that lie outside the Coarse bokeh on a photo shot with an 85 mm lens and 70 mm entrance pupil diameter, which depth of field. Photographers sometimes deliberately use a shallow corresponds to f/1.2 focus technique to create images with prominent out-of-focus regions. Bokeh is often most visible around small background highlights, such as specular reflections and light sources, which is why it is often associated with such areas.[2] However, bokeh is not limited to highlights; blur occurs in all out-of-focus regions of the image.
