Formulation with Phase Shift Terms

the translation matrices T —ksrop) and T ksVoi) give the relations between the expansion coefficients of the incident and scattered fields in different coordinate systems. In the present analysis, these relations are derived by using the direct phase differences between the electromagnetic fields in different coordinate systems.

Several other calculations of the first few partial-wave phase shifts for positron-helium scattering have been carried out using a variety of approximation methods in all cases, however, rather simple uncorrelated helium wave functions have been used. Drachman (1966a, 1968) and McEachran et al. (1977) used the polarized-orbital method, whereas Ho and Fraser (1976) used a formulation based on the static approximation, with the addition of several short-range correlation terms, to determine the s-wave phase shifts only. The only other elaborate variational calculations of the s-wave phase shift were made by Houston and Drachman (1971), who employed the Harris method with a trial wave function similar to that used by Humberston (1973, 1974), see equation (3.77), and with the same helium model HI. Their results were slightly less positive than Humberston s HI values, and are therefore probably less... 

Stability studies are required to run for a longer duration in support of phase II clinical studies. During this phase, the technical focus shifts to development of a commercially viable formulation. In this regard, excipient compatibility studies, multiple formulations, and packaging materials are generally screened. In most cases, short-term (6-month maximum) probe stability data are sufficient, followed by longer term (2-3 years) studies for the selection of the best formulation candidate. The API should also be monitored for stability with studies lasting up to 5 years in duration. 

Apparent equilibrium time and dynamic inversion. Salager discussed two experiments which concern dynamic inversion. The first considered the minimum contact time between phases before emulsification so that the resulting emulsion was indiscernible from an equilibrium system. He terms this contact time apparent equilibrium time and concluded that the equilibrium time decreases as SAD —> 0 and that it is essentially zero for some near optimum formulations. The second study tried to mimic actual processes by starting with an emulsion produced from a pre-equilibrated mixture and shifting its position on the WOR map, e.g. by changing temperature, or by changing its WOR at constant SAD. A shift across the inversion locus is a dynamic inversion. The results are shown in Figure 6.5.
