Torrey modified Bloch's original description of transverse magnetization to include diffusion terms and the application of a spatially varying gradient.

This “ field gradient pulse ” method was initially devised for NMR by Stejskal and Tanner who derived the reduction in signal due to the application of the pulse gradient related to the amount of diffusion that is occurring through the following equation:

Some surfactants are known to be toxic to animals, ecosystems, and humans, and can increase the diffusion of other environmental contaminants.

It had only been undertaken ( along with diffusion and other technologies ) to guarantee there would be enough material for use, whatever the cost.

This is due to the increasing diffusion of modern technologies, particularly in commerce and tourism.

: States should cooperate to strengthen endogenous capacity-building for sustainable development by improving scientific understanding through exchanges of scientific and technological knowledge, and by enhancing the development, adaptation, diffusion and transfer of technologies, including new and innovative technologies.

" It would consist of free trade, both external and internal ; the building of a national telecommunications infrastructure based on the development and diffusion of information technologies ; and human capital development.

Though it is challenging to assess exactly, the principal agent problem is considered to be a major barrier to the diffusion of efficient technologies.

* Principle 9: encourage the development and diffusion of environmentally friendly technologies.

* .. that set of distinct institutions which jointly and individually contribute to the development and diffusion of new technologies and which provides the framework within which governments form and implement policies to influence the innovation process.

* “.. that set of distinct institutions which jointly and individually contribute to the development and diffusion of new technologies and which provides the framework within which governments form and implement policies to influence the innovation process.

In cultural anthropology and cultural geography, cultural diffusion, as first conceptualized by Alfred L. Kroeber in his influential 1940 paper Stimulus Diffusion, or trans-cultural diffusion in later reformulations, is the spread of cultural items — such as ideas, styles, religions, technologies, languages etc .— between individuals, whether within a single culture or from one culture to another.

The 20th century saw the advancement of technologies that improved treatment and diagnosis such as the development of imaging tools including CT and MRI, and, in the 21st century, diffusion tensor imaging ( DTI ).

For examples of diffusion of technologies see: Diffusion of innovations # International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis ( IIASA )

Hägerstrand's early work on innovation diffusion ( studying the geographical spread of new technologies ) made him realise that the two, though separate, were not independent of each other ; they have what Lefebvre would call a dialectical relationship.

* The Department of Social Sciences promotes research on the major questions of society and on the relations between human societies and their environment: social management of water, urban development, demography and social mobility, finance and debt, impact of industrialization on rural systems, diffusion of new technologies, traditional health care systems, health problems related to the spread of transmittable diseases, etc.

The program also has the aim of using state-of-the-art technologies to enable wider accessibility and diffusion of the items inscribed on the Register.

For higher values, the surface diffusion of deposited atomic species would allow for the formation of crystallites with long range atomic order.

In Smithson's will, he stated that should his nephew, Henry James Hungerford, die without heirs, the Smithson estate would go to the government of the United States to create an " Establishment for the increase & diffusion of Knowledge among men ".

The commemoration at UNESCO itself took place on 6 September 2007 ; UNESCO issued a medal in Rumi's name in the hope that it would prove an encouragement to those who are engaged in research on and dissemination of Rumi's ideas and ideals, which would, in turn, enhance the diffusion of the ideals of UNESCO.

This finding, which would be of great importance to both the history of Niger and the history of the diffusion of Iron Age metalworking technology in all of sub-Saharan Africa, is as yet contentious.

One possibility is that the chemical peculiarity may be the result of diffusion or mass loss, although stellar models show that this would normally only occur near the end of a star's hydrogen-burning lifespan.

When he saw the film in a theater, Hall felt that the image was slightly unclear and that had he not used the filter, the diffusion from the Super 35 – anamorphic conversion would have generated an image closer to what he originally intended.

Without the ions from the electrolyte, the charges around the electrode would slow down continued electron flow ; diffusion of H < sup >+</ sup > and OH < sup >−</ sup > through water to the other electrode takes longer than movement of the much more prevalent salt ions.

Using a DC pulse as the electrical current, spark plasma, spark impact pressure, joule heating, and an electrical field diffusion effect would be created.

In a perfect conductor (), there would be no diffusion.

" The proposed design would have been built with either point-contact transistors or surface barrier transistors, both likely to be soon outperformed by the then newly invented diffusion transistors.

Occupying such a level would give an electron ( in the fields of all its neighboring nuclei ) a potential energy equal to its chemical potential ( average diffusion energy per electron ) as they both appear in the Fermi-Dirac distribution function,

A barrier metal layer must completely surround all copper interconnections, since diffusion of copper into surrounding materials would degrade their properties.

His critical endorsement would be crucial to the popularity of Jaroslav Hašek's The Good Soldier Svejk, and he played a crucial role in the diffusion of Leoš Janáček's operas.

The transition from the monumental to the purely literary character of the epigram was favoured by the exhaustion of more lofty forms of poetry, the general increase, from the general diffusion of culture, of accomplished writers and tasteful readers, but, above all, by the changed political circumstances of the times, which induced many who would otherwise have engaged in public affairs to addict themselves to literary pursuits.

Another possibility would be ion diffusion analysis, which could indicate how long the objects were buried.

Hamilton's idea was to define a kind of nonlinear diffusion equation which would tend to smooth out irregularities in the metric.

Consequently, biosensors are now commercially available, but they do have several limitations such as their high maintenance costs, limited run lengths due to the need for reactivation, and the inability to respond to changing quality characteristics as would normally occur in wastewater treatment streams ; e. g. diffusion processes of the biodegradable organic matter into the membrane and different responses by different microbial species which lead to problems with the reproducibility of result ( Praet et al., 1995 ).

The founders hoped that the federation would meet what they saw as a major need: a unified, organized voice for organic food, and the diffusion and exchange of information on the principles and practices of organic agriculture across national and linguistic boundaries.

The anisotropic potentials along the path would bias the motion of a particle ( like an ion or polypeptide ); the result would essentially be diffusion of a particle whose net motion is strongly biased in one direction.

Berman ( 1982 ) suggested that Wiyot and Yurok share sound changes not shared by the rest of Algic ( which would be explainable by either areal diffusion or genetic relatedness ); Berman's conclusion of common sound changes was refuted by Proulx ( 2004 ).

The traditional components were relatively soft metallic elements and alloys ( gold, copper, silver, shakudo, shibuichi, and kuromido ) which would form liquid phase diffusion bonds with one another without completely melting.
