Thus far, no study has shown convincingly that CAD can shorten the interpretation time of CTC examinations, although some commercial CAD systems are advertised to be used in a similar manner to a first reader, and thus they imply that their CAD systems would reduce radiologists interpretation time, in fact, conventional use of CAD as a second reader may increase the interpretation time, because additional time is needed for examining the possible...

The next few sections deal with the way these experimental results can be developed into a mathematical system. A reader prepared to accept the second law on faith, and who is interested primarily in applications, may skip section A2.1.4.2 and section A2.1.4.6 and perhaps even A2.1.4.7. and go to the final statement in section A2.1.4.8. 

We are going to carry out some spatial integrations here. We suppose that tire distribution function vanishes at the surface of the container and that there is no flow of energy or momentum into or out of the container. (We mention in passing that it is possible to relax this latter condition and thereby obtain a more general fonn of the second law than we discuss here. This requires a carefiil analysis of the wall-collision temi The interested reader is referred to the article by Dorfman and van Beijeren [14]. Here, we will drop the wall operator since for the purposes of this discussion it merely ensures tliat the distribution fiinction vanishes at the surface of the container.) The first temi can be written as... 

Muns ENDOR mvolves observation of the stimulated echo intensity as a fimction of the frequency of an RE Ti-pulse applied between tlie second and third MW pulse. In contrast to the Davies ENDOR experiment, the Mims-ENDOR sequence does not require selective MW pulses. For a detailed description of the polarization transfer in a Mims-type experiment the reader is referred to the literature [43]. Just as with three-pulse ESEEM, blind spots can occur in ENDOR spectra measured using Muns method. To avoid the possibility of missing lines it is therefore essential to repeat the experiment with different values of the pulse spacing Detection of the echo intensity as a fimction of the RE frequency and x yields a real two-dimensional experiment. An FT of the x-domain will yield cross-peaks in the 2D-FT-ENDOR spectrum which correlate different ENDOR transitions belonging to the same nucleus. One advantage of Mims ENDOR over Davies ENDOR is its larger echo intensity because more spins due to the nonselective excitation are involved in the fomiation of the echo. 

The values due to the two separate calculations are of the same quality we usually get from (pure) two-state calculations, that is, veiy close to 1.0 but two comments have to be made in this respect (1) The quality of the numbers are different in the two calculations The reason might be connected with the fact that in the second case the circle surrounds an area about three times larger than in the first case. This fact seems to indicate that the deviations are due noise caused by CIs belonging to neighbor states [e.g., the (1,2) and the (4,5) CIs]. (2) We would like to remind the reader that the diagonal element in case of the two-state system was only (—)0.39 [73] [instead of (—)1.0] so that incorporating the third state led, indeed, to a significant improvement. 

The book divides itself quite naturally into two parts The first six ehapters are on general seientifie eomputing applieations and the last seven ehapters are devoted to moleeular orbital ealculations, moleeular meehanies, and molecular graphics. The reader who wishes only a tool box of eornputational methods will find it in the first part. Those skilled in numerieal methods might read only the second. The book is intended, however, as an entity, with many eonneetions between the two parts, showing how ehapters on moleeular orbital theory depend on eornputational teehniques developed earlier. 

Because of the unique features of the x-ray radiation available at synchrotrons, many novel experiments ate being conducted at these sources. Some of these unique features are the very high intensity and the brightness (number of photons per unit area per second), the neatly parallel incident beam, the abihty to choose a narrow band of wavelengths from a broad spectmm, the pulsed nature of the radiation (the electrons or positrons travel in bunches), and the coherence of the beam (the x-ray photons in a pulse are in phase with one another). The appHcations are much more diverse than the appHcations described in this article. The reader may wish to read the articles in the Proceedings of the Materials Research Society Hsted in the bibhography. 

The couphng equation is a vapor mass balance written at the vent system entrance and provides a relationship between the vent rate W and the vent system inlet quahty Xq. The relief system flow models described in the following section provide a second relationship between W and Xo to be solved simultaneously with the coupling equation. Once W andXo are known, the simultaneous solution of the material and energy balances can be accomplished. For all the preceding vessel flow models and the coupling equations, the reader is referred to the DIERS Project Manual for a more complete and detailed review.
