From Eric:
The intensity of the emitted light sounds dangerous to me. Consider that
a fresnel lense can easily be used to start a fire with one sun (in contrast
to 10,000 suns). If the number is accurate, there may be military
applications.

Eric,
You can think of this solar concentration as a ratio of areas. Light from one
sun collected over an area is directed into an area that is 10,000 times
smaller. This is not too difficult if you consider that a circular collector
only needs to force the light into a smaller circle that

A magnifying glass appears to reduce the effective area by a relatively

to one. It would be easy to believe that the linear size of the

I have been trying to get a sense of what 10,000 suns would look like in
the lab. I can only imagine it would be bright. I tried to get some
