* Coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy ( CARS ) is a recent technique that has high sensitivity and powerful applications for in vivo spectroscopy and imaging.

Higher sensitivity was also necessary to obtain high statistical confidence in its results.

Regenerative and super-regenerative receivers offered a high sensitivity, but often suffer from stability problems making them difficult to operate.

Recent studies have shown that 3T MRI using super high resolution imaging and contrast injection can non-invasively diagnose this disorder with high specificity and sensitivity.

The electronic amplifier between input and meter gives two benefits ; a rugged moving coil instrument can be used, since its sensitivity need not be high, and the input resistance can be made high, reducing the current drawn from the circuit under test.

The NTSB determined that " because of its high sensitivity, the A300-600 rudder control system is susceptible to potentially hazardous rudder pedal inputs at higher speeds ".

Despite the advantages of high spatial resolution and precise chemical sensitivity attributed to AES, there are several factors that can limit the applicability of this technique, especially when evaluating solid specimens.

The high sensitivity against background light is especially useful for LIDAR.

Therefore, these methods cost huge amount of time though provide high sensitivity to small MO activities.

A short report in The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene states that, in a patient research study, the spatula test had a high specificity ( zero false-positive test results ) and a high sensitivity ( 94 % of infected patients produced a positive test result ).

A horn loaded speaker can have a sensitivity as high as 110 dB at 2. 83 volts ( 1 watt at 8 ohms ) at 1 meter.

This is a hundredfold increase in output compared to a speaker rated at 90 dB sensitivity, and is invaluable in applications where high sound levels are required or amplifier power is limited.

Symptoms include severe headache, a sustained high fever, cough, rash, severe muscle pain, chills, falling blood pressure, stupor, sensitivity to light, and delirium.

* high sensitivity particle detectors, including the transition edge sensor, the superconducting bolometer, the superconducting tunnel junction detector, the kinetic inductance detector, and the superconducting nanowire single-photon detector

Photomultipliers are constructed from a glass envelope with a high vacuum inside, which houses a photocathode, several dynodes, and an anode.

directed at the photomultiplier tube's photocathode which is connected to the negative of a high voltage source.

The optical system of the image dissector focuses an image onto a photocathode mounted inside a high vacuum.

Due to the high electrostatic field stresses in the tube and the operation of the MicroChannel Plate, this led to failure of the photocathode within a short period-as little as 100 hours before photocathode sensitivity dropped below Gen2 levels.

By means of geographical isolation and high fertility rates, inbreeding can be fostered and the pattern of isolation from the greater society maintained.

Whereas a high percentage of the regular students can be expected to read other texts which more or less plow the same ground in a little different direction, the married students chose whole books on specific areas and went into much greater detail in their areas of interest.

A deft, hilarious satire on very high French society involving a statesman with two enviable possessions, a lovely young bride and a head containing such weighty thoughts that he has occasionally to remove it for greater comfort.

Administrator Webb realized that in order to keep Apollo costs under control, he had to develop greater project management skills in his organization, so he recruited Dr. George E. Mueller for a high management job.

" This local zinc was used in speltering and allowed greater control over the zinc content of brass and the production of high zinc copper alloys which would have been difficult or impossible to produce using cementation, for use in expensive objects such as scientific instruments, clocks, brass buttons and costume jewellery.

Impact cratering involves high velocity collisions between solid objects, typically much greater than the velocity of sound in those objects.

In the more powerful cartridges, the short barrel of a carbine has significant disadvantages in velocity, and the high residual pressure when the bullet exits the barrel results in substantially greater muzzle blast.

These vehicles have greater high speed mobility than traditional heavy equipment and are protected against the effects of blast and fragmentation.

The disparity between venous and whole blood concentrations is greater when the hematocrit is high, as in newborn infants, or adults with polycythemia.

This may take at least 30 minutes based on the force of the updrafts in the hail-producing thunderstorm, whose top is usually greater than 10 km high.

If these ratios are averaged using an arithmetic mean ( a common error ), high data points are given greater weights than low data points.

These two polymorphs differ by a " kinking " of bonds ; this change in structure gives β-quartz greater symmetry than α-quartz, and they are thus also called high quartz ( β ) and low quartz ( α ).

Applications requiring higher reflectivity or greater durability, where wide bandwidth is not essential, use dielectric coatings, which can achieve reflectivities as high as 99. 999 % over a narrow range of wavelengths.

However, also being in a high fixed costs industry, these costs can be spread out through greater production ( i. e. Higher quantity produced ).

A greater percentage could have a smaller proportion of Indian ancestry, but their conclusions show that popular estimates of admixture may have been too high.

However, the overall column amounts are greater in the northern hemisphere high latitudes than in the southern hemisphere high latitudes.

A 2008 study analyzing the sexual fantasies of 200 heterosexual men by using the Wilson Sex Fantasy Questionnaire exam, determined that males with a pronounced degree of fetish interest had a greater number of older brothers, a high 2D: 4D digit ratio ( which would indicate excessive prenatal estrogen exposure ), and an elevated probability of being left-handed, suggesting that disturbed hemispheric brain lateralization may play a role in deviant attractions.

However, the German high command needed to produce an even greater number of helmets, leading to the usage of pressurized felt and even paper to construct Pickelhauben.

The technique is capable of producing a very high degree of visual realism, usually higher than that of typical scanline rendering methods, but at a greater computational cost.

The reddening of sunlight is intensified when the sun is near the horizon, because the volume of air through which sunlight must pass is significantly greater than when the sun is high in the sky.

He could do this because he manufactured thermometers, using mercury ( which has a high coefficient of expansion ) for the first time and the quality of his production could provide a finer scale and greater reproducibility, leading to its general adoption.

Tsunami and tides both produce waves of water that move inland, but in the case of tsunami the inland movement of water is much greater and lasts for a longer period, giving the impression of an incredibly high tide.

Low and high cycle fatigue are enhanced and have been documented to provide increases up to ten times greater than non-UIT specimens.
