##Supplemental content This page holds supplemental content–videos, images, etc.–for the poster whose QR code led you here. If you’d like a piece of content that’s not listed, please contact author Merlin.

###Poster

Download the poster in PDF form, in case you wanted a souvenir. (At screen resolution, so not quite suitable for reprints!)

###Thermal videos

Thermal video of a 15 second, 10 kW shot. Transcoded from .avi, which was in turn converted from .rtv. Internal designation: shot 5.
Thermal video of a notably clear section of ice core being irradiated with a 3 second, 10 kW shot. This video is the source of the bottom ‘filmstrip’ seen on the poster. Transcoded from .avi, which was in turn converted from .rtv. Internal designation: shot 7.

###Visible videos

Visible-light video of a 3 second, 10 kW shot on a notably-transparent sample. Rapid clouding is evident. Trimmed and transcoded from .MOD. Internal designation: shot 7.
Visible-light video of a 20 second (max), 10 kW shot on a sample (formerly including the visible-transparent section) already subjected to a 3 second 10 kW shot. Drill through is seen. Trimmed and transcoded from .MOD. Internal designation: shot 9.
