A CHA … consists of two metal hemispheres. One hemisphere being shaped concave, and the other convex. They are arranged such that their centres of curvature are coincident … Different voltages are placed on each hemisphere such that there is an electric field between the two hemispheres. Electrons are injected into the gap between the hemispheres. If the electrons are travelling very fast, they will impinge on the outer hemisphere. If they are travelling very slow, they will be attracted to the inner hemisphere. Hence only electrons in a narrow energy region (called the pass energy) succeed in getting all the way round the hemispheres to the detector. 4, record 11, English, - concentric%20hemispherical%20analyzer

L'Autorité héraldique du Canada est chargée de créer de nouvelles armoiries, des drapeaux et des insignes pour les citoyens et les organismes canadiens. L'objectif principal de l'Autorité est de rendre l'héraldique accessible à tous les Canadiens. Elle favorise en outre de bonnes pratiques au Canada en ce qui concerne l'héraldique en appliquant les plus hautes normes de cet art ainsi qu'en élaborant des méthodes de recherche et d'enregistrement à la mesure de ce qui se fait dans d'autres pays. Le Gouverneur général est le chef de l'Autorité. 1, record 13, French, - Autorit%C3%A9%20h%C3%A9raldique%20du%20Canada
