P4 7 No Mr Bond: I expect a better suit!

Abstract

We follow up from our previous paper where we found the power of the laser in the 1964 Bond
f
ilm Goldfinger. In the film the laser is shut off just before contacting Bond, here we assume it
touches Bond for 0.5 s. We find the change in temperature of Bond’s clothing for the case of it
being made of cotton fibre and kevlar, for different radii of the laser spot. To assess how a more
focused laser can cause more heating. It is found if the laser is double the focusing we use in our
previous paper, at 2 cm, and Bond is wearing a suit made of kevlar, he might walk away with
severe burns, but otherwise would survive.
