Vitrectomy is a surgical procedure undertaken by a specialist where the vitreous humor gel that fills the eye cavity is removed to provide better access to the retina. This allows for a variety of repairs, including the removal of scar tissue, laser repair of retinal detachments and treatment of macular holes. Once surgery is complete, saline, a gas bubble or silicone oil may be injected into the vitreous gel to help hold the retina in position. 3, record 1, English, - vitrectomy

In the flotation process, clinging of a particle to air-water interphase or to a bubble. Fundamentally, adhesion is the force between two unlike substances ... due to molecular attraction at an interface. 5, record 4, English, - adhesion
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 CONT
A particle which had its surface fully covered by collector would find it difficult... to cling to an air-water interface completely packed with frother molecules. The incompleteness of adsorption of the contacting phases is an important factor in attachment. Mineralizing contact may result from collision between bubble and particle, from precipitation of gas from water or through a mixed process in which precipitation initiates contact. Tests... showed that attachment on collision with a coursing bubble increases with the density of the particle concerned, which by its greater mass is better able to break through the slipstream or energy barrier surrounding the bubble. Other research supports this by showing how a minute bubble, such as might result from precipitation, initiates bubble attachment or the build-up of a buoyant system.... The available gas also influences the kinetics of attachment. 6, record 4, English, - adhesion

The Sun emits a steady flow of electrically-charged particles called the solar wind. As the solar wind expands supersonically into space, it creates a magnetized bubble around the Sun--the heliosphere. Eventually, the solar wind runs into the electrically-charged particles and magnetic field in the interstellar gas. The solar wind abruptly slows down from supersonic to subsonic speed, creating a termination shock. Before both spacecraft travel beyond the heliopause into interstellar space, they must pass through that shockwave. 2, record 11, English, - termination%20shock

... a BTI technician traveled to the Soviet Union to install in the Soviet Spacecraft a modified neutron spectrometer set consisting of a number of bubble detectors.... its simple construction consists of an elastic polymer with microscopic droplets of a superheated liquid dispersed throughout. When these droplets are hit by neutrons, they form gas bubbles which are fixed in the medium to give a visual record of the neutron dose. The dose is in direct proportion to the number of bubbles and is calculated numerically. 1, record 17, English, - bubble%20detector

La technologie canadienne de détection des rayonnements mise au point par BTI [Bubble Technology Industries] a été choisie pour la mission spatiale Cosmos (...) Il s'agit d'un détecteur perfectionné à bulles conçu pour un usage répété et sa construction très simple consiste en un polymère élastique dans lequel sont dispersées des gouttelettes microscopiques d'un liquide surchauffé. Quand ces gouttelettes sont frappées par des neutrons, elles forment des bulles de gaz qui restent fixées dans le milieu et donnent un enregistrement visuel de la dose de neutrons. Cette dose est directement proportionnelle au nombre de bulles et peut être calculée numériquement. 1, record 17, French, - d%C3%A9tecteur%20%C3%A0%20bulles
