    摘要: A radiation detector, comprising a sensitive volume filled with a counter gas; an anode and a cathode each in communication with the counter gas; a voltage supply for maintaining a potential difference between the anode and the cathode, said potential difference being less than required to cause gas discharge in the counter gas. The radiation detector further comprises a photoemissive material in communication with the sensitive volume. The photoemissive material may be provided as a coating on the cathode. The radiation detector may further comprise a controllable light source for supplying photons of a known wavelength to the photoemissive material. Electrons may be emitted by the photoemissive material in response to the provision of said photons, said electrons causing avalanche breakdown of the counter gas, indicating satisfactory operation of the radiation detector.

    摘要: A system for determining a timing offset between a first clock and a second clock at respective first and second points in a communications network. A series of request signals is transmitted from the first point in the network to the second point in the network. A series of reply signals is transmitted from the second point in the network to the first point in the network. Each reply signal and a corresponding reply signal having a minimum round trip delay time are identified and a minimum single leg delay time is determined from the minimum round trip delay time. A timing offset between the clock values of the first clock and the second clock at a first instance is estimated, the estimation being based upon the minimum single leg delay time, and a transmission time and a reception time of one of the identified request signal and the corresponding reply signal, as given by the respective clocks at the transmission and reception points of the signal.

    摘要: An apparatus for reconstituting dried bacteria includes a first reservoir for the storage of reconstituting solution, a pump via which the reservoir is coupled to one of a pair of hollow needles arranged side by side in operative association with an apparatus for raising or lowering the pair so that in use they can be lowered to pierce a closure bung of a container in which bacteria are sealed under vacuum, the one needle being effectively longer than the other of the two hollow needles so that consequent upon lowering of the pair, the one needle passes through the bung before the other effectively shorter of the two needles. The shorter of the two needles is coupled to a second reservoir for the transfer thereto, in use of the apparatus, of reconstitution solution from the first reservoir together with bacteria from the container.

    摘要: An MRI system has a cylindrical superconducting magnet assembly contained in a bore tube of a cylindrical vacuum vessel (OVC), and a gradient coil assembly situated within the OVC bore tube. In an imaging region within a bore of the gradient coil assembly, the magnet assembly produces a magnetic field that is subject to drift during operation of the MRI system. Compensating material is located at a radial position between the imaging region and the magnet in a location that will be heated over a range of temperatures during operation of the MRI system. The compensating material is adjustable between two magnetic phases in response to an applied physical characteristic, which is selectively applied thereto so as to change the compensating material from a first magnetization to a second magnetization, and thereby compensate the drift.
