The fundamental parameters of the NMR [nuclear magnetic resonance] gyro are defined in the following manner : The signal-to-noise ratio is a parameter which characterizes the noise-induced random drift and the ability to determine drift angle in the NMR gyro. The relaxation times characterize the fundamental usefulness of the resonance cell. Finally, the rate bias instability characterizes the shifts in the precessional frequency of the macroscopic magnetic moment. 1, record 2, English, - noise%2Dinduced%20random%20drift

The advantage of the multioscillator laser gyro is that changes in bias magnitude do not directly affect the gyro output... a change in the frequency separation between oppositely polarized pairs will not directly affect output. Therefore, dithering is not required and there is no periodic passing through the lock-in region. 2, record 4, English, - dithering

Les défauts de surface des miroirs [des gyrolasers], même infimes, provoquent la rétrodiffusion d'une partie de chaque rayon qui se couple alors avec le rayon se propageant dans l'autre sens. Il se crée ainsi un couplage (lock-in) entre les faisceaux lasers et une zone aveugle pour les vitesses angulaires faibles. Pour éviter ce phénomène qui nuirait à la précision de la mesure de rotation, il est nécessaire d'agiter la cavité de mouvements de va-et-vient rapides (dithering). 1, record 4, French, - mouvement%20de%20va%2Det%2Dvient%20rapide

Statistically Observed Propensities. A measure of a residue's tendency or bias to have a particular property. In secondary structure prediction algorithms(Chou & Fasman, 1978) this refers to the probability that a residue will be found in a given secondary structure(helix, beta-strand, coil or turn). Secondary structure propensity is determined by taking the frequency of a given amino acid in a given structure and dividing by the overall frequency(in all structures) of that amino acid. 1, record 6, English, - helix%20propensities%20of%20amino%20acids

For best recording results, bias, level and equalization electronics of a deck should be adjusted to match the characteristics of a particular brand of tape. This is because mismatched adjustments result in peaked or rolled-off frequency response, increased noise and distortion. Therefore, nearly every recording you make is compromised to a degree by the mismatch between hardware(deck) and software(tape). The best, but impractical, solution would be to have a technician calibrate your deck to match it to the specification of your favorite tape. Pioneer gives you a practical alternative Auto BLE and Super Auto Ble. It's a computerized way to optimize bias, level and equalization for whatever tape you care to use, and in seconds...
