The Total Width

The total width F (or the total energy resolution) is obtained by adding in quadrature the contributions from the statistical effects (F, ) and from the noise and incomplete charge collection (F ). Thus, 

For gas and scintillator counters, the main contribution comes from the statistical fluctuations. For semiconductor detectors at low energies, measurements have shown that F Fy. At higher energies this is reversed, since F is essentially independent of energy while F increases with it (see Eq. 9.6).

Menu design is an essential element in microcomputer software development. Figure 2 shows a menu, "ROOT MENU." Eigure 3 is presented to show all available menus. When there are more menus and the total width exceeds 80 columns, scrolling must be effected (109,110). If the top bar cursor is moved to the first column. Menu 1, only the contents of Menu 1 will be displayed. 

On the contrary, according to Eq. (1.70) gM becomes zero for o) = 0, the width of a gap in the centre of the spectrum being about l/xj. Note that the total width of a gas phase spectrum is much larger, namely 1/tc. This narrow gap in the centre of gM(oj) points to the existence of intercollisional correlation. The same is valid for the spectrum of random... 

The solution is a sum of Lorentzian curves, centred at the same frequency, but having different widths. The total width of this spectrum, as well as the width of each of its components, increases linearly with /tj [257]... 

For the speed and load distributions three superposed normal distributions around three fixed mean values are used, corresponding for the speed to town, country road, and motorway (turnpike or freeway) traffic. A maximum speed fixes the total width of the curve from zero to that maximum. This corresponds to lOtr, where a stands for standard deviation of the three superposed distributions. The three mean values are fixed at 3, 5, and la. Their heights can be varied according to the frequency with which the three distributions occur, their sum has to add up to LA similar distribution is also used to describe the different load conditions with low, medium, and high loads. Figure 26.79 gives an example of such a triple distribution function. 

Figure 35.41 shows the effect of the cross axes setting on the clearance along the calender roll. The effect of the deflection of both rolls on the clearance is given for the reference simation as given before. The total width W of the roll is 1600 mm and the diameter D is 650 mm (inner diameter Dj = 350 mm). Z is the coordinate parallel to the rolls and originates at one of the calender roll edges.

Kevin is buying fabric for new curtains. There are three windows, each 35 inches wide. Kevin needs to buy fabric equal to l times the total width of the windows. How much fabric should he buy a. 

The total width of the space-charge region can be estimated from the following consideration. Throughout the major part of the depletion region we have —eo kT, and the concentration of the electrons... 

VBM or HOMO maximum. E — represent the total width of the measured UPS spectra. 

Beyond these well established characteristic features however the total width of the electron distributions is much narrower for the argon target than for neon or helium. These patterns are due to the signatures of the initial state wave function. In figure 3, a systematic discrepancy between experiment and theory appears at higher electron energies. This discrepancy occurs due to one of the basic postulates of the CDW-EIS model, namely that it is based on the independent electron model which considers there... 

Focusing on comparisons to measurable quantities, the relative probability of a reaction (exit) channel can be written as the ratio of the cross section for that channel, (r to the total reaction cross section, 07. The ratios are labeled as the relative decay widths, T, in a notation that is, unfortunately, easy to confuse with the number of states discussed above. The sum of the decay widths is the total width of the state and can be used to calculate the lifetime of the excited state. Thus,... 

A QBS formed in some way or other may decay into any channel i of the same symmetry as O at a rate Ift/ft that may differ depending on the channel. The element Sy (i,j = 1,2,..., N0) must include both T, and r) on an equal footing because of the time-reversal symmetry. The lifetime r of state i is the inverse of the rate T /ft of decay into all channels, i.e., the sum of all I",/ft, the total width r being T. ... 

It should be born in mind that our discussion now centers on extracting the resonance position Er and the total width T from the much richer scattering information that the S and Q matrices contain. Multichannel continuum wavefunctions are usually calculated for more general purposes of obtaining the scattering amplitudes and the cross sections for various state-to-state processes and of unraveling the dynamics of the whole continuum system including both resonance and nonresonance mechanisms and the intricate interference between them. 

Branching ratios are given in %, the total widths are in meV. Howatl and Howat2 results correspond to the Hartree-Fock and transition state basis sets of Ref. [49] respectively. The experimental values for K-LL transition are taken from Albiez et al. [50] (branching ratios) and from Avaldi et al. [51] (total width). 

In Pd the 4 p width is considerably larger than the shift which means that during the formation of the tidal wave, the energy loss ( friction") is dominant and a maximum relaxation shift is not very probable. However, this does of course not violate the picture of a 4p hole as a stable excitation in the sense that the total width is still much smaller than the core-hole binding energy. However, in order to observe the Weisskopf-Wigner limit of exponential decay one may have to go back to the elements around 42Mo. 

Use is made of this relationship in chromatography in calculating the total zone spreading that results from multiple sources. To get the total zone width a, the variances of the individual sources of zone spreading are summed and the square root is taken. For example, if a chromatograph has appreciable volumes in the tubing used to connect the column to the detector and to the injection valve, these will add to the total width of the peak. The total peak width aT is... 

Transverse relaxation is caused by the distribution and fluctuation of the resonance frequency of the A spins. The distribution-induced relaxation is called free induction decay. The free induction decay curve is the Fourier transform of the spectral shape of the A spins. This spectral shape depends on the intensity and the pulse width of the incident microwave, when the total width of ESR spectrum is large as is the case for radical species in solids. Therefore, the analysis of the free induction decay curve gives no information on the nature of radical species in solids unless the pulse width is narrow enough to cover the entire ESR spectrum. 

Sometimes die width at a different percentage of the peak height is cited rather than the half-width. A further common measure is when the peak has decayed to a small percentage of die overall height (for example 1 %), which is often taken as the total width of the peak, or alternatively has decayed to a size that relates to die noise.
