The ratio of the measured antenna temperature change during a drift scan across the moon to the average brightness temperature of the moon over the antenna beam ( assuming that the brightness temperature of the sky is negligible ) was found, by graphical integration of the antenna directivity diagram, to be 0.85.

The half-intensity diameter of the main lobe of the antenna was about 18'.5, and the brightness temperature was reduced by assuming a Gaussian shape for the antenna beam and a uniformly bright disk for the moon.

A shielded thermocouple was used to measure the upstream temperature of the transpiring gas.

The upper limit was determined by the difficulty of measuring the characteristic anode surface temperature ( see below ) since only a small region of the anode was struck by the arc.

To measure the surface temperature of the anode plug, the surface was scanned with a pyrometer.

Its temperature was denoted by Af.

The mean temperature of this region was approximated by the temperature measured halfways between the edge of the hot spot and the rim of the plug.

The mean temperature of the surface was then computed according to the following relation: Af where x is the fraction of the plug area covered by the hot spot.

The upstream gas temperature measured with the thermocouple shown in figure 2 was Af.

The fresh tissue or cell suspension is frozen rapidly ( cryofixation ), then fractured by simply breaking or by using a microtome while maintained at liquid nitrogen temperature.

The same temperature must be maintained throughout the cell in order to prevent destruction of the cell through thermal loading.

All this meant that a more constant temperature could be maintained in the cylinder and that engine efficiency no longer varied according to atmospheric conditions.

Until the joey is well-furred and old enough to leave the pouch, a pouch temperature between must be constantly maintained.

The power dissipated in a thermistor is typically maintained at a very low level to ensure insignificant temperature measurement error due to self heating.

Since the temperature on the outside of the suit varies greatly between sunlight and shadow, the suit is heavily insulated, and air temperature is maintained at a comfortable level.

Foodstuffs maintained near this temperature have an increased storage life.

Though the mine maintained a constant temperature of about 50 degrees Farenheit, its high humidity played havoc with the crew's equipment and props.

The humidity is maintained at 50 % ± 10 %, and the temperature is maintained between 18 and 21 ° C.

To prevent attempted brumation in an aquarium, lights should be on for 12 – 14 hours per day and the water temperature should be maintained between.

To obtain sufficiently low conductivity, the detector must be maintained at low temperature, and liquid-nitrogen must be used for the best resolution.

At very high working temperatures with intense heat transfer between the molten salt and the steel being treated, precision is maintained by measuring the temperature of the molten salt.

Both the sample and reference are maintained at nearly the same temperature throughout the experiment.

It contains a geothermal lake of mineral-rich, sulphurous, opaque blue water, which is maintained at a comfortable temperature for swimming.

Pressure in the primary circuit is maintained by a pressurizer, a separate vessel that is connected to the primary circuit and partially filled with water which is heated to the saturation temperature ( boiling point ) for the desired pressure by submerged electrical heaters.

To achieve a pressure of 155 bar, the pressurizer temperature is maintained at 345 ° C, which gives a subcooling margin ( the difference between the pressurizer temperature and the highest temperature in the reactor core ) of 30 ° C.

Body temperature is usually maintained near a constant level of through biologic homeostasis or thermoregulation.

It is sufficiently small compared with the surface temperature of the anode holder, to make the energy flux radiated from the environment toward the anode holder negligible within the accuracy of the present measurements.

Velocity-distribution data of a gas of rubidium atoms at a temperature within a few billionths of a degree above absolute zero.

Some contended an absolute minimum temperature occurred within earth ( as one of the four so-called " elements "), others within water, others air, and some more recently within nitre.

Temperature determines metabolic rates, heart rates, and other very important factors within the bodies of animals, so an extreme temperature change can easily distress the animal ’ s body.

The voltage output from these anemometers is thus the result of some sort of circuit within the device trying to maintain the specific variable ( current, voltage or temperature ) constant.

Antimicrobial tests have also revealed significant reductions of MRSA as well as two strains of epidemic MRSA ( EMRSA-1 and EMRSA-16 ) on brass ( C24000 with 80 % Cu ) at room temperature ( 22 ° C ) within three hours.

Between 70 K and room temperature, berkelium behaves as a Curie – Weiss paramagnetic material with an effective magnetic moment of 9. 69 Bohr magnetons ( µ < sub > B </ sub >) and a Curie temperature of 101 K. This magnetic moment is almost equal to the theoretical value of 9. 72 µ < sub > B </ sub > calculated within the simple atomic L-S coupling model.

Development progresses rapidly – precursors to all major organs appear within 36 hours of fertilization, and hatching takes place 12 – 36 hours later, depending on the embryo's internal conditions and the external temperature, which is ideally.

Counterintuitively, the atmospheric temperature dropped to normal levels much more quickly at the larger impact sites than at the smaller sites: at the larger impact sites, temperatures were elevated over a region wide, but dropped back to normal levels within a week of the impact.

Since blunt-ended DNA fragments have no cohesive ends to anneal, the melting temperature is not a factor to consider within the normal temperature range of the ligation reaction.

It appears in contexts where the transistor is used as a temperature sensing device, e. g. the thermal " diode " transistor that is embedded within a computer's microprocessor.

The Gaia hypothesis states that there is an emergent feedback loop generated by the metabolism of living organisms that maintains the temperature of the Earth and atmospheric conditions within a narrow self-regulating range of tolerance.

The metabolic terms " ectothermic " and " endothermic " respectively refer to organisms that rely largely on external heat to achieve a full working temperature, and to organisms that produce heat from within as a major factor in controlling their bodily temperature.

This 60 plus year temperature span is actually smaller than many places in inland southern England will record within a given 3 month period.

Thermochemical techniques can be used to determine temperature proiles within the crust, the uplift of mountain ranges, and paleotopography.

Primary issues concerning the existence and cause of climate change include the reasons for the increase in global average air temperature, whether the warming trend is unprecedented or within normal climatic variations, whether humankind has contributed significantly to it, and whether the increase is wholly or partially an artifact of poor measurements.

On Earth, the cold side of any heat engine is limited to being close to the ambient temperature of the environment, or not much lower than 300 Kelvin, so most efforts to improve the thermodynamic efficiencies of various heat engines focus on increasing the temperature of the source, within material limits.
