Published version of a Nobel lecture, solely credited to Steven Chu, in Reviews of Modern Physics 70, pp. 685–706, July 1998. Journal publication is distinct from the 8 December 1997 lecture delivery. The historical release-and-recapture account includes a retrospective correction for cloud geometry.
