FIGU RE 10.13 Schematic drawing of the distribution of xanthophyll molecules between raft domain (DRM) and bulk domain (DSM) in lipid bilayer membranes. For this illustration, the xanthophyll partition coefficient between domains is the same as obtained experimentally for raft-forming mixture. However, to better visualize the observed effect in the drawing, the number of lipid molecules was decreased and the total number of xanthophyll molecules was increased about 10 times.

The principle of the ENDOR method is illustrated in Fig. 1. It refers to the most simple spin system with an electron spin S = 1/2 and a nuclear spin I = 1/2 for which an isotropic hf interaction, aiso, is considered. In a steady state ENDOR experiment4, an EPR transition (A, D), called the observer, is partly saturated by microwave radiation of amplitude B while a driving rf field of amplitude B2, called the pump, induces nuclear transitions. At frequencies vj and v2, the rf field tends to equalize the populations within the ms-states. This alters the degree of saturation of the observer so that, in the display of the EPR signal height versus the radio frequency, two ENDOR lines at transition frequencies vj = aiso/2 - vn (A, B) and v2 = ais0/2 + v (C, D) will be observed (v = / NgnBo denotes the nuclear Zeeman frequency for a static field B0). 

Radiopharmaceuticals are prescribed according to units of radioactivity. A pharmacist practicing nuclear pharmacy may need to convert radio activity units from curies to SI unit, becquerel and its multiples, and vice versa. The following examples illustrate the interconversion of radioactive units. 

UPS is also a large technology company and a telecommunications company. It operates the largest DB2 database in the world with 412 terabytes of dynamic memory. Its mainframe capacity allows for the transmission of more than 22 million instructions per second. UPS employs over 4,700 employees in its technology unit, and it also operates the world s largest phone system. UPS s mobile radio network transmits more than 3 million packets of tracking data each day. Its communication scale is further illustrated by the fact that it has over 145 million hits per business day on its website with peak days of 252 million hits. It processes 10 million tracking requests a day. 

For common preclinical laboratory specimens such as mouse and rat, it is possible to image the skeletal features associated with different developmental stages of serial end-point harvested specimens (Fig. 1). Additionally, with the use of radio-opaque contrast agents, it is possible to image capture the soft tissue features of these specimens (Fig. 2). The combined imaging can be used to illustrate various anatomical features of interest within the same specimen (Fig. 3). This imaging technique therefore has an added potential of conferring multi-modality to an individual micro-CT machine. 

Fig. 8 illustrates how increasing LET reduces the differences in radiosensitivity related to the position of the cells in the mitotic cycle [31]. Cells in stationary phase and in S phase are significantly more radio-resistant than mitotic cells. 

Nowadays, self-diffusion coefficients are almost exclusively measured by NMR methods, through the use of methods such as the 90-8-180-8-echo technique (Stejs-kal and Tanner sequence) [10-12]. The pulse-echo sequence, illustrated in Figure 4.4-2, can be divided into two periods of time r. After a 90° radio-frequency (RF) pulse the macroscopic magnetization is rotated from the z-axis into the x-y-plane. A gradient pulse of duration 8 and magnitude g is appHed, so that the spins dephase. 

An early high-resolution transmission scanning acoustic microscope is illustrated in Fig. 2.3. Two acoustic lenses are mounted facing each other on a common axis, and with a common focal plane. A continuous radio-frequency (r.f.) signal is fed to the transducer on one of the lenses, which converts this to... 

The circuit of Fig. 4 can also be used as a detector of amplitude-modulated (AM) radio waves. Fig. 5(a) illustrates the components of an AM wave. If this is applied to the input of Fig. 4, the wave is rectified and the output appears as shown in Fig. 5(b). Placing a small-valued capacitor across Rl filters out the carrier frequency and the desired modulating signal is obtained, as shown in Fig. 5(c).

A small weather station is illustrated in Figure 3.181. Such stations are usually available in both the cabled and the wireless forms to provide all the information that is needed to control and optimize the various alternative energy processes. These units are usually preprogrammed to provide simple meteorological data, and to perform the complex calculation of ETo (evapo-transpiration). The microprocessor-based systems automatically measure the variables and store the data before transmitting it to a user-supplied remote PC over distances of up to about 10 mi. The units are usually provided with a rechargeable battery pack and a spread spectrum radio transceiver. 

The JILA implementation of this technique is illustrated in Fig. 5 [18]. For the first measurement u>r was phase locked to a precise radio frequency reference (a GPS controlled Rb standard) but knowledge and control of u>0 was not required. The entire comb was allowed to freely float and <5i and <52 were measured...
