By this method it was determined that the normal pressure exerted by a sample of polybutene ( molecular weight reported to be 770 ) was over half an atmosphere.

One sample, which had been exposed to the atmosphere after evacuation at 375-degrees-C, showed the presence of adsorbed water ( about 0.3 wt ) ) as evidenced by a weak resonance line which was very narrow at room temperature and which disappeared, due to broadening, at low temperature.

Observers, in the two school systems studied here, judged the teachers in the structured schools to be more impersonal and demanding, while the atmosphere in the unstructured schools was judged to be more supporting and accepting.

The atmosphere was one of optimism, of confidence in human progress, and of a determination to rid the world of its ills.

In the supernatural atmosphere of cosmic government, only the ruling elite was ever concerned with a kingdom-wide ordering of nature: popular religion aimed at more personal benefits from magical powers.

Before her chore was finished she was rescuing wind-blown sheets of music, trundling microphones about the stage, helping to move the piano and otherwise joining in the informal atmosphere.

It was day, but in the thin atmosphere contrasts were sharp between light and shadow.

They had determined that nitrogen produced from chemical compounds was one-half percent lighter than nitrogen from the atmosphere.

An early psychical researcher to propose an afterlife hypothesis was Edmund Fournier d ' Albe he wrote that at the moment of death the soul floats into the atmosphere.

Collins decided to record it in the late 1960s amid an atmosphere of counterculture introspection ; she was part of an encounter group that ended a contentious meeting by singing " Amazing Grace " as it was the only song to which all the members knew the words.

The young Alexei was brought up by his mother, who fostered an atmosphere of disdain towards Peter the Great, Alexei's father.

Whether the motion was due to an irregular distribution of the Earth's atmosphere, thus involving abnormal variations in the refractive index, was also investigated ; here, again, negative results were obtained.

The problem was caused by high residual stresses from cold forming of the cases during manufacture, together with chemical attack from traces of ammonia in the atmosphere.

For the case of Jupiter, the radio emission spectrum is definitely not like the spectrum of a black-body radiator, and it seems very likely that the radiation reaching the earth is a combination of thermal radiation from the atmosphere and non-thermal components.

`` The planet is very low in radiation from mineral deposits, and the atmosphere seems to shield out most of the solar output.

An afterglow is a broad high arch of whitish or rosy light appearing in the sky due to very fine particles of dust suspended in the high regions of the atmosphere.

The mineral content of the water, the very low content of pollens and other allergens in the atmosphere, the reduced ultraviolet component of solar radiation, and the higher atmospheric pressure at this great depth each have specific health effects.

It should in principle, however the atmosphere is very complicated and one cannot simply argue that just because CO < sub > 2 </ sub > is a greenhouse gas it causes warming.

These accounts seek a higher moral meaning from the munus, but Ovid's very detailed ( though satirical ) instructions for seduction in the amphitheatre suggest that the spectacles could generate a potent and dangerously sexual atmosphere.

According to Mohani Mohamed, the Arabian astronomer Alhazen ( 965 – 1037 ) made the first attempt at observing and measuring the Milky Way's parallax, and he thus " determined that because the Milky Way had no parallax, it was very remote from the Earth and did not belong to the atmosphere.

These structures are somewhat analogous to high-and low-pressure cells in Earth's atmosphere, but they have a very different structure — latitudinal bands that circle the entire planet, as opposed to small confined cells of pressure.

There were a great many rival Christian denominations holding very diverse opinions ; the atmosphere of dispute and confusion gave Fox an opportunity to put forward his own beliefs through his personal sermons.

Regarding the atmosphere of the town, he states: " Harwich is a town of hurry and business, not much of gaiety and pleasure ; yet the inhabitants seem warm in their nests and some of them are very wealthy ".

However, the atmosphere was found to be in a stable condition close to its chemical equilibrium, with very little oxygen, methane, or hydrogen, but with an overwhelming abundance of carbon dioxide.

Lead is a bright and silvery metal with a very slight shade of blue in a dry atmosphere.

The fireball that occurs as the meteoroid passes through the atmosphere can appear to be very bright, rivaling the sun in intensity, although most are far dimmer and may not even be noticed during daytime.

They extend terrestrial life into much of the Earth's hydrosphere, crust and atmosphere, their specific evolutionary adaptation mechanisms to their extreme environment can be exploited in bio-technology, and their very existence under such extreme conditions increases the potential for extraterrestrial life.

However, " relatively high ," in the case of ozone, is still very small with regard to ordinary oxygen, and is less than ten parts per million, with the average ozone concentration in Earth's atmosphere being only about 0. 6 parts per million.

The ozone layer ( which absorbs from about 200 nm to 310 nm with a maximal absorption at about 250 nm ) is very effective at screening out UV-B ; for radiation with a wavelength of 290 nm, the intensity at the top of the atmosphere is 350 million times stronger than at the Earth's surface.

Different frequencies of radio waves have different propagation characteristics in the Earth's atmosphere ; long waves may cover a part of the Earth very consistently, shorter waves can reflect off the ionosphere and travel around the world, and much shorter wavelengths bend or reflect very little and travel on a line of sight.

Rockets are not reliant on the atmosphere and work very well in space.

Owing to absorption by the atmosphere very little reaches the Earth's surface ( Lithosphere ).

For both solar thermal and nuclear power generation in airless environments, such as the Moon and space, and to a lesser extent the very thin Martian atmosphere, one of the main difficulties is dispersing the inevitable heat generated.

However, its atmosphere is very thin ( averaging 800 Pa or about 0. 8 % of Earth sea-level atmospheric pressure ); so the pressure vessels necessary to support life are very similar to deep-space structures.

* Very high speeds in the atmosphere necessitate very heavy thermal protection systems, which makes reaching orbit even harder.
