Cross-section scaling

Scale models are a real asset in the effective and efficient layout and sometimes process development of a plant. Although any reasonable scale can be used, the degree of detail varies considerably with the type of process, plant site, and overall size of the project. In some instances cardboard, wooden, or plastic blocks cut to a scale and placed on a cross-section scale board will serve the purpose. Other more elaborate units include realistic scale models of tlie individual items of equipment. These are an additional aid in visualizing clearances, orientation, etc.

The optical properties of spherical particles at wavelength X change drastically around size parameter, x = 2ita/X 1 particles with x 1 are in the geometric limit, and their absorption cross-sections scale with the cross-sectional area Cabs a2. Particles with size parameters 1 have absorption cross-sections that roughly scale as particle volume CabS a3. The scattering properties of both large... 

The absolute zero of the cross-section scale must be accurately measured. Fully 50% of our data acquisition time is spent collecting background signals.

Thus, as follows from Eqs. (3.6)-(3.11), in the wide interval of thermodynamic parameters, the inelastic cross section scales in relation to the ideal-gas limit of / ° ( ) near the resonances. The value nX /e plays a role in the scaling argument. 

The cross-sections for K-shell ionization do exhibit some reasonable regularities specifically, for protons and a-particles of the same velocity, the cross-sections scale approximately with Z, i.e., aK( He) ss 4 x ctk( H). Roughly speaking, relative to the cross-sections for 2 MeV protons, the energy of deuterons and a-particle beam and the magnitude of cross-section will vary as follows ... 

Figure 5.5 Photoabsorption cross-sections (in per valence electron) for Na, w = 4 to 7, as a function of photon energy. The absolute value of the cross-section scale is indicated in the lower left comer of each column. The temperature in kelvins is indicated on the left-hand side. At low temperatures, rather sharp peaks are seen which broaden with increasing temperature. The highest temperature data for each cluster size correspond to the evaporative ensemble [20]. The value of Tevap is a direct measure of the dissociation energy. For example, Na6 is so weakly bound that it decays above 250 K within the time window of the experiment. Clusters with an even number of valence electrons have a higher binding energy and can thus be measured to much higher temperatures...

From Eq. 5 we recognize an important feature that makes visible lasers inherently more difficult to operate than infrared lasers. For equal A coefficients the stimulated emission cross section scales as X,3, For example, comparable A coefficients for transitions at 5(X) nm and 3000 nm would lead to a stimulated emission cross section ratio o(5(X) nm)/a(3(XX) nm) 0.005 (assuming all other conditions were constant).
