Silver's reflector is a composite stable glider reflector that was discovered by Stephen Silver on November 6, 1998 . It consists of Callahan G-to-H , Fx77 , L112 and NW31 . The final NW31 Herschel-to-glider converter can be replaced with Fx119 to give a glider-to-Herschel converter, Silver G-to-H .
For a long time it had been the smallest and fastest Spartan 180- and 90-degree stable reflector and the smallest stable glider duplicator , until it was surpassed by the syringe in 2015 .
It has a repeat time of 497 ticks , improved from the previous 575 ticks achieved by a similar device with a second Fx77 in the place of NW31. However, it can be overclocked to much lower periods; an example is shown below where the Silver's reflector accepts a continuous glider stream with spacing 249 ticks. This property is utilized in QuickSilver Demonoid , and in that context the reflector is referred to as QuickSilver by authors.
