When these physical phenomena are represented in the form of a frequency spectrum, certain physical descriptions of their internal processes become much simpler.

When all the visible frequencies are present in equal amounts, the perceived color of the light is white, and the spectrum is a flat line.

When the " Act to Regulate Radio Communication " was passed on August 13, 1912, amateurs and experimenters were not banned from broadcasting ; rather, amateurs were assigned their own frequency spectrum and licensing and call-signs were introduced.

When one samples a bandpass signal at a rate lower than the Nyquist rate, the samples are equal to samples of a low-frequency alias of the high-frequency signal ; the original signal will still be uniquely represented and recoverable if the spectrum of its alias does not cross over half the sampling rate.

When the star moves towards us, its spectrum is blueshifted, while it is redshifted when it moves away from us.

When a material is exposed to an ion beam, atomic interactions occur that give off EM radiation of wavelengths in the x-ray part of the electromagnetic spectrum specific to an element.

When this is done, the spectrum of the signal approaches that of a continuous sinusoidal oscillation, while temporally its amplitude does vary between zero and full carrier strength.

When measured with spectrum analyser the actual level of the carrier

When measuring fluorescence spectra, the wavelength of the excitation light is kept constant, preferably at a wavelength of high absorption, and the emission monochromator scans the spectrum.

When D-branes are nearly coincident, the spectrum of strings stretching between them becomes very rich.

When both sampling and windowing are applied to s ( t ), in either order, the leakage caused by windowing is a relatively localized spreading of frequency components, with often a blurring effect, whereas the aliasing caused by sampling is a periodic repetition of the entire blurred spectrum.

When used with morphine and a benzodiazepine mixture, scopolamine can be used for its broad spectrum of effects including decreasing glandular secretions like saliva.

When used in this context, the traditional terms " infrared " and " ultraviolet " are not literal references to specific regions of the spectrum.

When Heidegger and Sartre speak of a contrast between being and existence, they may be right, I don't know, but their language is too philosophical for me.

When they express themselves it is incandescent hatred that shines forth, the rage of repudiation, the ecstasy of negation.

When I try to work out my reasons for feeling that this passage is of critical significance, I come up with the following ideas, which I shall express very briefly here and revert to in a later essay.

When the proprietor dies, the establishment should become a corporation until it is either acquired by another proprietor or the government decides to drop it.

When the reactionary response is thus bolstered by an intellectual defense, the characteristics of that defense are explicable only in terms of the basic attitudes of unanalyzed reaction.

When someone in the audience rose and asked how does it feel to be a celebrity, Carl said, `` A celebrity is a fellow who eats celery with celerity ''.

When decision makers act within this frame they determine whether a claim put forward in the name of religion is to be accepted by the larger community as appropriate to religion.

When we consider the disorganized state of the world community, and the legacy of predispositions adversely directed against all who are identified as Jews, it is obvious that the struggle for the minds and muscles of men needs to be prosecuted with increasing vigor and skill.

When we turn to Aristotle's ideas on the moral measure of literature, it is at once apparent that he is at times equally concerned about the influence of the art.

When their faith in civil liberties is tested against strong pressures of social expediency in specific issues, e.g., suppression of `` dangerous ideas '', many waver and give in.

There is, of course, nothing new about dystopias, for they belong to a literary tradition which, including also the closely related satiric utopias, stretches from at least as far back as the eighteenth century and Swift's Gulliver's Travels to the twentieth century and Zamiatin's We, Capek's War With The Newts, Huxley's Brave New World, E. M. Forster's `` The Machine Stops '', C. S. Lewis's That Hideous Strength, and Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four, and which in science fiction is represented before the present deluge as early as Wells's trilogy, The Time Machine, `` A Story Of The Days To Come '', and When The Sleeper Wakes, and as recently as Jack Williamson's `` With Folded Hands '' ( 1947 ), the classic story of men replaced by their own robots.

When I first came across Samuel Johnson's pronouncement, `` the remedy for the ills of life is palliative rather than radical '', it seemed to me to sum up the profoundest of political and social truths.

When all else fails, it is argued that open sessions slow down governmental operations.

When a person has thoughtlessly or deliberately caused us pain or hardship it is not always easy to say, `` Just forget it ''.

When a person meets God's requirements for the experience of forgiveness he is forgiven.

When we become firm enough to stand for those ideals which we know to be right, when we become hard enough to refuse to aid nations which do not permit self-determination, when we become strong enough to resist any more drifts towards socialism in our own Nation, when we recognize that our enemy is Communism not war, and when we realize that concessions to Communists do not insure peace or freedom, then, and only then will we no longer be `` soft ''.
