use of MOS/OS edit

((@RocketCityMan:,@Geogene: for this and the next comment) The only place where MOS/OS is googleable is this article. I can't access the journal source (September 2015), however there's a PDF by Brooks which uses MAOS and AOS. That said, the only place where these terms/acronyms are used is in that very PDF.

Optothermal vs Thermo-optical edit

It appears from Google, GBooks and GScholar that the term "thermo-optical stability" is standard (though still infrequent).

All uses of "optothermal stability" on wikipedia were added by RCM (the primary source?), and of the 24 results that the term matches on Google, the only hits that aren't wikipedia or its clones appear to be:

  • A handful of Chinese pages and a patent where it appears to refer to gels/extruded plastics.
  • An article on the Solar-Optical telescope by S. Tsuneta et al. in The Hinode Mission (ed. T. Sakurai)

There's an extra hit on Google Scholar, and 7 hits on GS for "opto-thermal stability" consisting of:

  • One paper (*2) by T.H Jamiesen on lenses.
  • What looks like five physical chemistry papers on films (but not necessarily lenses)

I'm not sure it meets notability guidelines myself. Geogene (talk) 18:27, 10 December 2015 (UTC)Reply
