Field Operations Division

The Factory Inspectorate is divided into 21 areas each of which has sections that specialise in a particular industry and form the National Industry Groups (NIGs). Technical back-up is provided by Field Consultancy Groups who are co-ordinated by a Field Operations Division located at Bootle. 

Under this setup there were to be two assistant chiefs, CWS, one for materiel and one for field operations. The Assistant Chief of CWS for Materiel was to "supervise and co-ordinate the functions of development, procurement, inspection, and supply. These functions were to be administered by the following divisions Technical, Industrial, Inspection, and Supply. The Assistant Chief of CWS for Field Operations was to "supervise and co-ordinate the preparation of plans for the utilization of chemical warfare materiel and troops. Under his jurisdiction were three divisions. Field Requirements, Training, and War Plans and Theaters. Other divisions, along with the executive branches, were directly under the supervision of... 

More unusual were those facilities developed for special use in the technical phases of unit training. These included areas devoted to each of the specialties represented by the seven technical sections of the operations and training division of the center. Technical instruction was first undertaken in these areas, followed later by the application of principles in field operations.

In deciding where your primary sponsorship for PSM lies, keep in mind that the terms centralized" and decentralized" can be misleading because they are relative, not absolute. A company can be seen as decentralized because most operating decisions are made at the divisional level, working with broad corporate guidelines. A division that is part of the decentralized company may, itself, be a highly centralized entity, with key decisions coming from the top of the divisbn and most staff resources based at division headquarters, not in the field. 

Electrofining A process for purifying petroleum fractions by extracting them with various liquid reagents and then assisting their separation by means of an electric field. Developed by the Petreco Division of Petrolite Corporation, and first operated in California in 1951. 

As was pointed out in Chapter 4, division of the radiation into electric and magnetic is connected with the existence of two types of multipoles, characterized by the parities (—l)fc and (—l)fc+1, respectively. The first ones we have studied quite thoroughly in Chapters 24-26. Here let us consider in a similar way the M/c-transitions. Again, as we have seen in Chapter 4, the potential of the electromagnetic field in this case does not depend on gauge. Therefore only one relativistic expression (4.8) was established for the probability of M/c-radiation, described by the appropriate operator (4.9). The probability of non-relativistic M/c-transitions (in atomic units) is given by formula (4.15), whereas the corresponding non-relativistic operator has the form (4.16).
