Both positive and negative electrons reside together within the atom, and are complementary to one another.

Beta particles are high-velocity electrons (negatively charged) or positrons (positively charged). They are about one ten-thousandth the mass of an alpha particle and consequently can penetrate tissue and material more readily; an average energy beta particle can penetrate about one centimetre of tissue or water. 2, record 2, English, - negative%20electron

Constant-current modulation [is] a system of amplitude modulation in which the output circuits of the signal amplifier and carrier-wave generator or amplifier are directly and conductively coupled by a common inductor. The inductor has an ideally infinite impedance to the signal frequencies and therefore maintains the common plate-supply current of the two devices constant. The signal-frequency voltage thus appearing across the common inductor also modulates the plate supply to the carrier generator or amplifier, with corresponding modulation of the carrier output. 5, record 4, English, - constant%2Dcurrent%20modulation

Second carrier designation policy. Clear rules will govern the allocation of second designation opportunities. Assessment of applications for second designation for scheduled passenger services by a Canadian carrier, large or small, will be guided for market thresholds, as follows :-in country markets with at least 300, 000 one-way origin/destination passengers per year travelling by scheduled air service, second designations will be made.... Applications for designation in markets already served by two carriers will not be considered until markets have grown significantly beyond their current passenger level. The only exception will be the United States which is by far Canada's largest international market. Under the recently signed "open skies" agreement, any Canadian carrier will be permitted to serve any route to the United States.... In order to facilitate this policy, Canada will negotiate second designation rights in markets as they mature, whenever practical, and will seek agreement on the necessary capacity and frequency of service to give effect to such rights. As of the date of announcement of this policy, the following country markets meet the 300, 000 passenger threshold, thereby enabling second carrier designation : the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Hong Kong and Japan. 3, record 9, English, - designated%20air%20carrier

Politique de désignation de second transporteur. Des règles claires régiront l'attribution des opportunités de désignation de second transporteur. L'évaluation des demandes de second transporteur pour des services passagers réguliers par un transporteur canadien, gros ou petit, sera basée sur des seuils de marché comme suit : - dans les marchés qui ont annuellement au moins 300 000 passagers aller simple en provenance ou à destination d'un pays desservi par service régulier, on fera des désignations de second transporteur [...] Le gouvernement se réservera le droit d'imposer des limites au service des transporteurs désignés. Les demandes de désignation dans des marchés déjà desservis par deux transporteurs ne seront pas considérées jusqu'à ce que ces marchés aient évolué suffisamment au-delà de leurs niveaux actuels de passagers. La seule exception sera les États-Unis qui sont de loin le marché international le plus important du Canada. Aux termes de l'entente «à ciels ouverts» récemment signée, tout transporteur canadien recevra la permission de desservir n'importe quelle route à destination des États-Unis. Afin de faciliter cette politique, le Canada négociera des droits de désignation de second transporteur à mesure que les marchés arriveront à maturité [...]. À la date de l'annonce de cette politique, les marchés des pays suivants satisfont au seuil des 300 000 passagers, permettant ainsi la désignation de second transporteur : Royaume-Uni, France, Allemagne, Hong Kong et Japon. 2, record 9, French, - transporteur%20d%C3%A9sign%C3%A9

Une version commerciale de ce détecteur est apparue récemment sur le marché, il est composé d'une lampe UV [détecteur à photoionisation] scellée qui émet un rayonnement à 121,6nm (10,2 eV) à travers une fenêtre en fluorure de magnésium. Si le soluté passant dans ce détecteur a un potentiel d'ionisation inférieur à 10,2eV, il s'ionise en absorbant un photon. Les ions issus de cette photoionisation sont collectés en appliquant un potentiel positif sur une des électrodes. Le courant qui en résulte est amplifié par un électromètre identique à celui utilisé avec un détecteur à ionisation de flamme. 1, record 11, French, - d%C3%A9tecteur%20%C3%A0%20photoionisation

Semiconductive Thin Film Detector. Using the known principle that the adsorption and desorption of gases cause a change in electrical conductivity of semiconductors, Seiyama et al. developed a new chromatographic detector for gaseous components.... The current, depending upon the resistance of the film, is converted to voltage by the variable resistance, which is fed without amplification to a recorder. Resistance also adjusts the input voltage of the recorder at desired sensitivity. Using zinc oxide as an example of a typical film material, the conductivity of its film maintains a fixed value when the nitrogen carrier gas is passed at a constant flow rate throught the borosilicate glass tube. When a small amount of another gas or vapor is added to the carrier gas, its conductivity is changed. 1, record 12, English, - semiconductive%20thin%20film%20detector

A simple arrangement of two cavities in series showed the feasibility of detecting traces of one gas in another. A klystron was used to generate microwave power which was fed through a wave guide to a transmission-type cavity. Another cavity was mounted in series with and tuned to the same frequency as the first; both cavities were identical except that the second had a gas inlet and outlet ports. From this measuring cell, its microwave energy was sent to a crystal detector. By frequency-modulating the klystron with a 50-cps sine wave voltage on the repeller, a burst of energy passes to the detector each time the generator frequency equals that of the cavities. The detector current is amplified and measured with an oscilloscope. At the beginning of the run, the two cavities are filled with the nitrogen carrier gas and, if the composition in one of the cavities is changed, its electrical size will change... causing a decrease of current from the detector. 1, record 13, English, - crystal%20detector

Thermionic or Electron Impact Detector. In 1957, Ryce and Bryce described a sensitive ionization gauge based on the ionization potentials of vapors. It comprised a filament, a grid, and a plate. The potential difference between the filament and grid accelerated electrons which may ionize any gas in their path. If the grid potential is maintained at a level insufficient to ionize the helium carrier gas... no current flows in the plate circuit. If a potential difference of 18 V is maintained between the filament and the grid, compounds of lower ionization potential in the helium will be ionized and the positive ions produced will yield a cathode current, the current noted being a measure of the ion concentration. Into the modified ionizing chamber, operated at reduced pressure, a small fraction of the column effluent gas stream(less than 0. 5%) was allowed to flow into the gauge through a controlled leak. Over a 0. 02-l. 5 mm Hg pressure range, the sensitivity was approximately proportional to the pressure, and sensitivities in the range of 10[ minus superscript 12] mole were claimed. 1, record 15, English, - electron%20impact%20detector

Second carrier designation policy. Clear rules will govern the allocation of second designation opportunities. Assessment of applications for second designation for scheduled passenger services by a Canadian carrier, large or small, will be guided by market thresholds, as follows :-in country markets with at least 300, 000 one-way origin/destination passengers per year travelling by scheduled air service, second designations will be made.... Applications for designation in markets already served by two carriers will not be considered until markets have grown significantly beyond their current passenger level. The only exception will be the United States which is by far Canada's largest international market. Under the recently signed "open skies" agreement, any Canadian carrier will be permitted to serve any route to the United States.... In order to facilitate this policy, Canada will negotiate second designation rights in markets as they mature, whenever practical, and will seek agreement on the necessary capacity and frequency of service to give effect to such rights. As of the date of announcement of this policy, the following country markets meet the 300, 000 passenger threshold, thereby enabling second carrier designation : the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Hong Kong and Japan. 1, record 17, English, - second%20carrier%20designation
