DEF

[The] sudden and short-lived brightening of a region of the solar chromosphere in the vicinity of a sunspot, caused by the sudden release of large amounts of energy (up to 1032 ergs) in a relatively small volume above the solar "surface."

OBS

Solar flares are classified in terms of the area of chromosphere affected, the duration of the phenomenon, and the width of the Ha</sub> line of hydrogen, on a scale ranging from 1-(minor eruption) to 3+(very large eruption).

C10H21Cl
formula, see observation
DEF

A commercial term referring to a chemical compound comprising mixed isomers, having the formula C10H21Cl, appearing under the form of a combustible, colorless liquid, used as a solvent for oils, fats, greases, resins, gums, in extractants and cleaning compounds, as an intermediate for insecticides, pharmaceuticals, plasticizers, polysulfide rubbers, resins and cationic surfactants.

OBS

The decyl "chain" as shown in formulas 5 through 9 is termed a "straight chain", as one carbon follows another, like the links of a chain. Structures 15 or 16 are termed "branched chains". [An illustration of the formulas follows. ] The overall formula for 5-7, C10sub>H21</sub>Cl, is the same. Formulas 5-7 each represents "decyl chloride. "However 15 and 16 differ in a crucial way. The difference is that formulas 15 and 16 have two "CH3" groups near the left end of the molecule. This is seen more easily in 17, a "condensed formula" that is equivalent to the "line formula" 15. Furthermore, 15 to 17 have a single "CH" group present, whereas 7 has no "CH" groups, only "CH3" and "CH2" groups. The new structure 15 or 17 carries a different name :"isodecyl chloride. "

English

Subject field(s)
  • Information Processing (Informatics)
  • Video Technology
CONT

Of the standards surveyed, measurement procedures for evaluating the resolution of a visual display involve luminance modulation or line-width measurements. There is some agreement among the standards that resolution measurements be performed in a darkened room with test patterns displayed at the maximum luminance. For color displays, resolution measurements of tricolor white are usually required, and line width is measured at the full-width-half-maximum of the luminance profile. However, line-width measurement methods vary in several ways. Most standards specify line width to be measured across one-pixel wide lines, while others specify character stroke width to be measured across a variety of text characters of various pixel widths including "M, ""H, "and "m. "Standards intended for testing stand-alone CRTs exclude video amplifier effects on line width by restricting the measurement to raster scan lines.
