Interferences can restrict the measurement of ion concentrations, if the interfering ions are highly concentrated or if their selectivity coefficients are high (see Equation [10.26]). For instance, in the preceding case, is about 100 for a glass membrane and if the pH of the analyzed solution is 7, the Na+ detection limit (see Figure 10.7 for the definition of this parameter) is about 10 M. If the pH is 5, this limit is about 10 M. 

The method implies injection of a mixture of 3 radioactive tracers each being distributed into one of the 3 phases. The tracers must show such differences in the emitting y-radiation energy spectra that they can be simultaneously detected by on line y-spectrometry. Candidate tracers are Br-82 as bromobenzene for oil, Na-24 or La-140 for water, and Kr-85 for gas. The tracers are injected simultaneously at a constant rate into the flow in the pressurised pipe, and the concentration is detected as series of instantaneous measurements taken downstream as illustrated in figure 2. 

The presence of the half-odd quantum number j in Eq. (69) is potentially a physically measurable consequence of geomehic phase, which was first claimed to have been detected in the spectrum of Naa [16]. The situation is, however, quite complicated and the first unambiguous evidence for geometric phase in Nas was reported only in 1999 [17],... 

The atomic absorption spectrum for Na is shown in Figure 10.19 and is typical of that found for most atoms. The most obvious feature of this spectrum is that it consists of a few, discrete absorption lines corresponding to transitions between the ground state (the 3s atomic orbital) and the 3p and 4p atomic orbitals. Absorption from excited states, such as that from the 3p atomic orbital to the 4s or 3d atomic orbital, which are included in the energy level diagram in Figure 10.18, are too weak to detect. Since the... 

However, because of the avoided crossing of the potential energy curves the wave functions of Vq and Fi are mixed, very strongly at r = 6.93 A and less strongly on either side. Consequently, when the wave packet reaches the high r limit of the vibrational level there is a chance that the wave function will take on sufficient of the character of Na + 1 that neutral sodium (or iodine) atoms may be detected. 

Electron Microprobe A.na.Iysis, Electron microprobe analysis (ema) is a technique based on x-ray fluorescence from atoms in the near-surface region of a material stimulated by a focused beam of high energy electrons (7—9,30). Essentially, this method is based on electron-induced x-ray emission as opposed to x-ray-induced x-ray emission, which forms the basis of conventional x-ray fluorescence (xrf) spectroscopy (31). The microprobe form of this x-ray fluorescence spectroscopy was first developed by Castaing in 1951 (32), and today is a mature technique. Primary beam electrons with energies of 10—30 keV are used and sample the material to a depth on the order of 1 pm. X-rays from all elements with the exception of H, He, and Li can be detected. 

Extraterrestrial dust particles can be proven to be nonterrestrial by a variety of methods, depending on the particle si2e. Unmelted particles have high helium. He, contents resulting from solar wind implantation. In 10-)J.m particles the concentration approaches l/(cm g) at STP and the He He ratio is close to the solar value. Unmelted particles also often contain preserved tracks of solar cosmic rays that are seen in the electron microscope as randomly oriented linear dislocations in crystals. Eor larger particles other cosmic ray irradiation products such as Mn, Al, and Be can be detected. Most IDPs can be confidently distinguished from terrestrial materials by composition. Typical particles have elemental compositions that match solar abundances for most elements. TypicaUy these have chondritic compositions, and in descending order of abundance are composed of O, Mg, Si, Ee, C, S, Al, Ca, Ni, Na, Cr, Mn, and Ti. 

The ultraviolet cutoff or the absorption edge for pure vitreous siUca is 8.1 eV or 153 nm (171). This uv cutoff is influenced by the impurity level and stoichiometry of the material. Several impurities, such as the transition metals (Fe, Cu, Ti, etc) and alkaU metal ions (Na, Li, K), degrade the ultraviolet performance, shifting the uv cutoff to longer wavelengths. Ferric ions (Fe " ) cause absorption or result in network defects under reducing conditions. This contaminant at only a few ppm can be detected as an absorption at 230 nm and below (176). 

Table 1 Hsts several of the chemical deterrninations and the corresponding reactions uti1i2ed, which are available on automated clinical analy2ers. With the exception of assays for various electrolytes, eg, Na", K", Cl , and CO2, deterrnination is normally done by photometric means at wavelengths in the ultraviolet and visible regions. Other means of assay include fluorescence, radioisotopic assay, electrochemistry, etc. However, such detection methods are normally required only for the more difficult assays, particularly those of semm or urine constituents at concentrations below )Tg/L. These latter assays are discussed more fully in the Hterature (3,4).

Calcium hexacyanoferrate (II) (IIH2O) [ 13821 -08-4] M 490.3. Recrystd three times from conductivity H2O and air dried to constant weight over partially dehydrated salt. [Trans Faraday Soc 45 855 1949.] Alternatively the Ca salt can be purified by pptn with absolute EtOH in the cold (to avoid oxidation) from an air-free saturated aqueous soln. The pure lemon yellow crystals are centrifuged, dried in a vacuum desiccator first over dry charcoal for 24h, then over partly dehydrated salt and stored in a dark glass stoppered bottle. No deterioration occurred after 18 months. No trace of Na, K or NH4 ions could be detected in the salt from the residue after decomposition of the salt with cone H2SO4. Analyses indicate 1 Imols of H2O per mol of salt. The solubility in H2O is 36.45g (24.9 ) and 64.7g (44.7 ) per lOOg of solution. [J Chem Soc 50 1926.]... 

Since the reliability of gas turbines in the power industry has been lower than desired in recent years because of hot-corrosion problems, techniques have been developed to detect and control the parameters that cause these problems. By monitoring the water content and corrosive contaminant in the fuel line, any changes in fuel quality can be noted and corrective measures initiated. The concept here is that Na contaminants in the fuel are caused from external sources such as seawater thus, by monitoring water content, Na content is automatically being monitored. This on-line technique is adequate for lighter distillate fuels. For heavier fuels, a more complete analysis of the fuel should be carried out at least once a month using the batch-type system. The data should be input directly to the computer. The water and corrosion detecting systems also operate in conjunction with the batch analysis for the heavier fuels.
