A polar plot of the coincident intensity is shown for the following experimental conditions photon energy 94.5 eV, Stokes parameter Sj = 0.957, S2 = 0, S3 unknown both electrons are detected in a plane perpendicular to the incident photon beam, the photoelectron at fixed position (ephe) with 0 = 90°, = 150°, the Auger electron at...

This result shows that for constant resolution of the second analyser the coincidence signal obtained in this way is also a correct measure of the coincidence intensity. This method has been applied in Section 4.6.2 and equ. (5.69a).

Mention should be made of one of the earliest internal indicators. This is a 1 per cent solution of diphenylamine in concentrated sulphuric acid, and was introduced for the titration of iron(II) with potassium dichromate solution. An intense blue-violet coloration is produced at the end point. The addition of phosphoric(V) acid is desirable, for it lowers the formal potential of the Fe(III)-Fe(II) system so that the equivalence point potential coincides more nearly with that of the indicator. The action of diphenylamine (I) as an indicator depends upon its oxidation first into colourless diphenylbenzidine (II), which is the real indicator and is reversibly further oxidised to diphenylbenzidine violet (III). Diphenylbenzidine violet undergoes further oxidation if it is allowed to stand with excess of dichromate solution this further oxidation is irreversible, and red or yellow products of unknown composition are produced. 

Theory predicts and experiment establishes 2/1 as the intensity ratio of Kal/Ka2 for sulfur. Where 3 lines appear in a spectrum, in Figure 1-19, the presumption is that more than one kind of sulfur atom is present, and that an intensity ratio exceeding 2 results because certain lines coincide. The observed intensities in Figure 1-19 are those to be expected on the basis of this presumption, 2 being the known value of K l/K 2 for every kind of sulfur atom. 

Spectral changes on adsorption are of three types appearance of inactive fundamentals (often coincident with infrared absorptions—see Table IX), shifts in Raman line positions for active vibrations, changes in relative peak intensities, and changes in half-bandwidths. The first three types of change have been reported for centrosymmetric adsorbates. 

When two or more waves pass through the same region of space, the phenomenon of interference is observed as an increase or a decrease in the total amplitude of the wave (recall Fig. 1.20). Constructive interference, an increase in the total amplitude of the wave, occurs when the peaks of one wave coincide with the peaks of another wave. If the waves are electromagnetic radiation, the increased amplitude corresponds to an increased intensity of the radiation. Destructive interference, a decrease in the total amplitude of the waves, occurs when the peaks of one wave coincide with the troughs of the other wave it results in a reduction in intensity. 

It is particularly difficult to study charge transfer reactions by the usual internal ionization method since the secondary ions produced will always coincide with ions produced in primary ionization processes. Indeed these primary ions frequently constitute the major fraction of the total ion current, and the small intensity changes originating from charge transfer reactions are difficult to detect. For example, Field and Franklin (5) were unable to detect any charge transfer between Xe + and CH4 by the internal ionization method although such reactions have been observed using other techniques (3, 9,22). 

A delay error shifts the position of zero delay with respect to the overall intensity envelope, resulting in a substantial reduction of overall contrast. The contrast may vanish entirely if the zero delay position coincides with a minimum. Therefore, there is a relation between the allowable delay error max and the spectral bandwidth Aoj of the detected radiation if the amplitude error of the fringe modulation is to remain small, i. e., (5max = A /AA.
