In 1903, Rutherford and associates were finally able to deflect the a-rays by electric and magnetic fields, showing that these are positively charged. Measurement of the charge-to-mass ratio indicated that a-rays were of atomic dimensions. In 1908 definitive experiments showed a-rays to be doubly chaiged helium atoms, ie, helium nuclei.

The potential of zero charge measures, on a relative scale, the electron work function of a metal in an electrochemical configuration, i.e., immersed in a solution rather than in a vacuum. Converted to an absolute value (UHV scale) and compared with the classic electron work function of the given metal, the difference between the two quantities tells us what occurs from the local structural point of view as the metal comes in contact with the solution.

Dielectric constant Also called permittivity. The dielectric constant of a substance is the ratio of the attractive force between two opposite charges measured in a vacuum to that force measured in the substance. The high dielectric constant of water makes it a good solvent for ionic compounds. 

Charge measurements, as mentioned above, were also performed using the porous Pt electrodes required by the on-line MS technique. At low methanol concentrations (10 2 M), the charge ratio QaJQm, near 1 indicates that (C,0, H) must be the predominant adsorbate composition [14,47], This result is in good agreement with that of Heitbaum and co-workers [15] who used Eq. 1.2 to determine the number of electrons, n, per C02 produced from methanol adsorbate. They found for n a value of 3, which would be in agreement with reactions 2.1 or 2.2 for methanol adsorption. 

The power, or strength of an explosive, is one of the most iihportant properties of interest to the user. It is usually expressed in terms of power per unit weight, which is appropriate for comparing explosives used in charges measured by weight. It can alternatively be expressed as power per unit volume, which is appropriate for explosives which are used to fill boreholes of a given size. The relation between the two depends solely on the density, so that the one is readily calculated from the other. 

Chemical dosimeters measure the absorbed dose by the quantitative determination of chemical change—that is, the G value of a suitable product—in a known chemical system. These are secondary dosimeters in the sense that the corresponding G values must be established with reference to a primary, absolute dosimeter. The primary dosimeters are usually physical in nature calorimeters, ionization chambers, or charge measuring devices with particles of known energy. However, the primary dosimeters are generally cumbersome, whereas the chemical dosimeters are convenient to handle. On the other hand, the chemical dosimeters are not suitable for low-dose measurements. 

On the basis of such charge measurements other workers postulated CHO as the adsorbate since this would also give QaAJQ0% 1 ... 

There was no significant damage to equipment in the fire tests, and it was demonstrated that a Jet Airmix mixer may safely handle the mixing of RP formulations on a routine basis. Since a high risk of fire is always associated with any method of transfer of RP, a pneumatic conveying system [dynamic air, two phase positive pressure transfer system was evaluated to load RP into the Jet Airmix mixer. Electrostatic charge measurements were minimal and indicated the system was satisfactory to load the blender. 

The intercept of this line is a function of cKci-. Thus, this theory predicts that the Oo/pH curves at various concentrations should all tend to become parallel lines far from the pHpzc. This is indeed the usual experimental observation. The slope of the adsorption capacitance follows directly from surface charge measurements. This had already been noted by Smit (21). The intercept of the straight line predicted by Equation 37 can be used to find cKCi-, provided that as and cdl are known.
