Estimate the volumes of fiiel-air mixture present in the individual areas identified as blast sources. This estimate can be based on the overall dimensions of the areas and jets. Note that the flammable mixture may not fill an entire blast-source volume and that the volume of equipment should be considered where it represents an appreciable proportion of the whole volume.

ToF analysers are able to provide simultaneous detection of all masses of the same polarity. In principle, the mass range is not limited. Time-of-flight mass analysis is more than an alternative method of mass dispersion it has several special qualities which makes it particularly well suited for applications in a number of important areas of mass spectrometry. These qualities are fast response time, compatibility with pulsed ionisation events (producing a complete spectrum for each event) ability to produce a snapshot of the contents of the source volume on the millisecond time-scale ability to produce thousands of spectra per second and the high fraction of the mass analysis cycle during which sample ions can be generated or collected. 

Figure 2, Pulsed electron beam ion source for operation at elevated pressures. A 3-kV e-beam enters through a 50-pm aperture located at the center of one wall of the ion source. Ions are sampled through a 50-pm aperture located at the center of the other wall of the ion source. A 2-mm thick copper gasket determines the depth of the active source volume.

The TRAPI was developed by Matsuoka and co-workers " and has been used to determine the rate constants of about a dozen IM reactions at atmospheric pressure. As a first approximation, the TRAPI experiment might be described as an atmospheric pressure version of the PHPMS with initial ionization caused by a pulsed X-ray source. The X-rays cause relatively even ionization throughout the 6.4-cm ion source volume by penetrating through thin sections of the ion source walls formed by 25- im thick molybdenum foil. A 16-pm ion-sampling aperture is located at the center of one of these thin walls. The ions that pass through this aperture are measured by an associated mass spectrometer as a function of time after the X-ray pulse. 

Fleischmann et al. (2006) provide a global production network planning model used at BMW that extends the simpler load planning model proposed by Flenrich (2002). The model is a multi-period, multi-product model with an objective function that maximizes the pre-tax net present value of the network. It includes decisions on product-plant allocation, production volumes, material sourcing volumes by supply region, structural and product-specific investments and use of overtime capacity. A major contribution of the model is the incorporation of the time-distribution of investment expenditures typically observed in automobile production networks. While tariffs are included in the transportation costs, the model does not consider further aspects of international trade such as currencies, duty drawbacks or local content rules which play a major role in practice. 

International network organized by the IDRC (International Development Research Centre), in collaboration with the National Water Research Institute and the Saint-Lawrence Centre of Environment Canada, to undertake bioanalytical intercalibration exercises with participating laboratories from eight different countries (Argentina, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, India, Mexico and Ukraine). The battery of simple, affordable and robust tests was initially selected to detect the toxic potential of chemical contaminants in drinking water and freshwater sources. Volume 2(7). 

The analyser accepts, transmits, analyses and possibly focuses electrons of a certain energy emitted by the sample. An important measure for the analyser s capability to meet these requirements is comprised in the luminosity L of the analyser. The luminosity is a measure of both the accepted source volume A V and... 

Figure 1.13 Definition of the source volume of an electrostatic energy analyser. In the case shown, the diameter of the source volume is determined by the diameter of the photon beam, and the restricted length Azmax by diaphragms in the electron spectrometer which prevent the acceptance of electrons from regions outside of Azmax. The average length, Az, usually identified with the length is also indicated.

If it is desired to measure the angular distribution parameter / , the experimental set-up of Fig. 1.17 can be used. A rotation of the sector-analyser around the photon beam direction keeps = 90°, but changes the angle or, equivalently, 4>. This set-up has the advantage that the analyser always views the same source volume, independent of the angle 4>. The angle-dependent intensity 7exp of detected electrons, equ. (1.53), then reduces to... 

Figure 1.17 An experimental set-up for electron spectrometry with synchrotron radiation which is well suited to angle-resolved measurements. A double-sector analyser and a monitor analyser are placed in a plane perpendicular to the direction of the photon beam and view the source volume Q. The double-sector analyser can be rotated around the direction of the photon beam thus changing the angle between the setting of the analyser and the electric field vector of linearly polarized incident photons. In this way an angle-dependent intensity as described by equ. (1.55a) can be recorded. The monitor analyser is at a fixed position in space and is used to provide a reference signal against which the signals from the rotatable analyser can be normalized. For all three analysers the trajectories of accepted electrons are indicated by the black areas which go from the source volume Q to the respective channeltron detectors. Reprinted from Nucl. Instr.

As asserted in the previous section, the height of the photolines shown in Fig. 2.4 does not provide the correct measure of the intensity of a photoline. It will now be demonstrated that the appropriate measure for intensities is the area A under the line, recorded within a certain time interval, at a given intensity of the incident light, and corrected for the energy dispersion of the electron spectrometer. This quantity, called the dispersion corrected area AD, then depends in a transparent way on the photoionization cross section er and on other experimental parameters. In order to derive this relation, the photoionization process which occurs in a finite source volume has to be considered, and the convolution procedures described above have to be included. In order to facilitate the formulation, it has to be assumed that certain requirements are met. These concern ... 

Figure 4.5 Principal trajectories of electrons with different kinetic energies in an electrostatic deflection analyser. The centre of the detector plane coincides with the focal point B of the principal ray at a U°p corresponding to the E°in. Principal rays, which also start in the source volume Q, but differ in their kinetic energy by A kin, reach the detector plane at different positions, thus illustrating the energy dispersion of the analyser. In the case shown the detector plane is aligned perpendicular to the principal rays it should be noted that the actual focal plane of a CMA is inclined in a clockwise direction with respect to this plane.

It depends on the geometry of the analyser (sector or 2n) and is related to the dimensions of the acceptance source volume.) The transmitted electrons are then detected by a common channeltron detector placed behind this dispersion...

Figure 4.8 Schematic representation of an effective source Q defined by two apertures which collimate the diffuse original source. The analyser then has to accept only the smaller effective source Q placed at a vertical distance ds. From [Ris72], see also Fig. 1.16 where S, and S2 act as apertures to restrict Az, the length of the acceptance source volume.

The electron spectrometer accepts (and transmits) only a fraction of the many electrons created at different points r in the actual source volume and emitted into the full space. This is due to the finite acceptance solid angle Qacc of the... 

For a finite source volume the situation for the analyser transmission becomes much more complicated, because for each point within the source volume a different transmission T(r) exists, and the relevant quantity to be considered is... 

Figure 4.12 Two extreme cases of transmission functions T(z) of an electrostatic analyser plotted for different points z of a linear source triangular and rectangular shapes are shown by the solid and dashed lines, respectively. Az is the length of the accepted source volume, T0 the transmission obtained for electrons from the centre of the source (see equ. (4.12)).
