Rather, such assignments are made, as they must be, on the basis of certain overall rules and standards, representing to some extent a statistical approach to the problem, taking into account for each situation some of the variables ( e.g., power and station separations ) and averaging out others in order to achieve the balance which must be struck between protection against destructive interference and the assignment of a number of stations large enough to afford optimum radio service to the Nation.

During nighttime hours, because of the intense skywave propagation then prevailing, no large number of stations can be permitted to operate on one of these channels, if the wide area service for which these frequencies are assigned is to be rendered satisfactorily by the dominant stations which must be relied upon to render it.

Additional class 2, assignments for daytime operation can be made without causing destructive interference to the class 1, stations or to each other, and by their operation provide additional service on these channels and additional local outlets for a large number of communities.

Such additional daytime class 2, assignments are appropriate if optimum use is to be made of these frequencies, and the Commission has over the years made a large number of them.

No matter how they are formulated, a large number of organic actives are simply not suitable for this application, since they do not give adequate soil removal.

Let us assume that it would be possible for an enemy to create an aerosol of the causative agent of epidemic typhus ( Rickettsia prowazwki ) over City A and that a large number of cases of typhus fever resulted therefrom.

Each male willow catkin is composed of a large number of small flowers.

It lacks pollen baskets and possesses only a large number of long, branched hairs on its legs, on which the pollen grains will collect.

A number of strong independent agencies, established in some cases with governmental or royal support, have conducted large medical, social, educational and research operations in particular parts of the Congo and Ruanda-Urundi.

The major training need of a new industrial plant is a short period of pre-employment training for a large number of semi-skilled machine operators.

There were two methods that could have been used for conducting the study within the resources available: ( 1 ) interviews in depth with a few selected companies, and ( 2 ) the more limited interrogation of a large number of companies by means of a mail questionnaire.

As a result, it was decided that a mail questionnaire sent to a large number of companies would be more effective in determining the general practices and opinions of small firms and in highlighting some of the fundamental and recurring problems of defense procurement that concern both industry and government.

If we thus spent our very first day in the midst of a large number of your people honoring a new hero and a great national achievement, our last day, to us at least, was equally impressive and very moving, even though the crowds were absent and there was almost complete silence.

Although a large number of coatings systems, particularly at low thicknesses fail cohesively by the cutting mechanism, frequently a second type of cohesive failure may also take place.

In the 16th century, Tycho Brahe used improved instruments, including large mural instruments, to measure star positions more accurately than previously, with a precision of 15 – 35 arcsec.

Due to the relatively large strength of the electromagnetic force, black holes forming from the collapse of stars are expected to retain the nearly neutral charge of the star.

61 Cygni is a binary star divisible in large binoculars or a small amateur telescope.

Beta Delphini, called Rotanev, is a close binary star and the brightest in Delphinus, divisible in only large amateur telescopes.

All exoplanets that have been directly imaged are both large ( more massive than Jupiter ) and widely separated from their parent star.

This is due to the relatively large interstellar distances compared to the relatively small size of an individual star.

The uniforms had multishade stripes of orange, red and yellow in front and in back behind a large dark blue star over the midsection.

* 1801 Uranographia sive Astrorum Descriptio ( A large star atlas illustrated with twenty copper plates.

The mass of a very large star or black hole may be identified with its Schwarzschild radius ().

The following year he began studying star clusters ; large groupings of stars that are co-located at approximately the same distance.

From his experiments, he concluded that the Earth was itself magnetic and that this was the reason compasses pointed north ( previously, some believed that it was the pole star ( Polaris ) or a large magnetic island on the north pole that attracted the compass ).

Using this scheme, galaxies, star clusters and other large objects have been simulated.

The Trumpler scheme gives a cluster a three part designation, with a Roman numeral from I-IV indicating its concentration and detachment from the surrounding star field ( from strongly to weakly concentrated ), an Arabic numeral from 1 to 3 indicating the range in brightness of members ( from small to large range ), and p, m or r to indication whether the cluster is poor, medium or rich in stars.

Tidal perturbations of large disks may result in the formation of massive planets and brown dwarfs, producing companions at distances of 100 AU or more from the host star.

They built the first large observatory research institutes, mainly for the purpose of producing Zij star catalogues.

The only exception is a faint image of a large star cluster containing hundreds of thousands of stars located one billion light years away — ten times the distance of the most distant star cluster previously observed.

However, Eggan's examples use a large alphabet, of size 2 < sup > n </ sup >- 1 for the language with star height n. He thus asked whether we can also find examples over binary alphabets.

A large number of the star systems shown on the map of the Frontier sector in the basic rulebook were unexplored and undetailed, allowing the Gamemaster ( called the " referee " in the game ) to put whatever they wished there.

It consists of two large spiral galaxies in the process of colliding with their nuclei orbiting at a distance of 1, 200 light-years, causing extensive star formation throughout both components.

Super star cluster ( SSC ) is a very large region of star formation thought to be the precursor of a globular cluster.

Standard with the Manufacture Year 2006 ( MY06 ) Forester came with larger side mirrors with indicator lights, curtain airbags giving a 5 star safety rating, remodelled centre console and exterior with a new look nose, lights and bumpers and the rear lost the large Suburu badge under the rear window.

Solar sails ( also called light sails or photon sails ) are a form of spacecraft propulsion using the radiation pressure ( also called solar pressure ) of a combination of light and high speed ejected gasses from a star to push large ultra-thin mirrors to high speeds.
