A cable network architecture wherein optical fibres radiate outwards from the head end or a point on a fibre-ring(a "node") to local networks serving a neighbourhood or subdivision. This is similar to the "switched-star" architecture of telephone systems-however, in the telephone case, each wire(twisted pair) serves an individual subscriber. 1, record 1, English, - star%20architecture

When an ionizing particle enters the device, it collides with gas atoms and strikes electrons from their orbit around the nucleus of the gas atoms. In addition, an ionizing particle striking the outside of the tube can also knock electrons off the metal casing. In either case, these free electrons then are attracted to the positively charged central wire, gaining energy by the attraction. As they approach the wire they knock electrons off other atoms, creating an avalanche or cascade effect which results in a pulse of current large enough to be detected. A "quenching gas" is usually added to the filler gas so that these avalanches will dissipate over time and not continue indefinitely, which would cause inaccuracy or electronic failure. 1, record 4, English, - quenching%20gas

Because the O2 sensor must be pre-heated to function, many newer units contain a little 12 volt heater that brings it up to temperature sooner, offering better fuel economy and driveability earlier. These sensors can be identified by the number of wires coming out of the unit. Just one wire means you don’t have a heater. Those that have three wires use one for the signal, and two for the heater circuit. Those that have four wires use one for the signal, one for the signal' s ground, and two for the heater. In this case usually the signal wire is shielded against interference, much like common television coaxial cable. 4, record 7, English, - heated%20exhaust%20gas%20oxygen%20sensor

Most engines with a turbo use sensors with heaters because the turbo steals so much of the superheat energy as it uses it to pump additional air in the intake. Without the heater, the sensor should not get hot enough to give good readings, especially when the turbo is being used. The Suzuki 1.0 liter engines unfortunately do not employ a lambda sensor with a heater. 4, record 7, English, - heated%20exhaust%20gas%20oxygen%20sensor

Pour compléter la sonde, on peut ajouter un élément chauffant central en céramique PTC de manière à assurer une mise à température de fonctionnement plus rapide (20 à 30 secondes). Sur une sonde non chauffée, ce temps est quasiment le triple car on compte uniquement sur la température des gaz d'échappement pour porter la sonde à la température correcte. Dans ce cas, la position de la sonde sur la ligne d'échappement est encore plus délicate à déterminer. [...] La différence entre une sonde chauffée et une non chauffée se situe bien entendu dans la rapidité de mise en activité mais aussi dans la durée de vie. Ainsi les fabricants estiment la durée de vie à 80000 km pour une sonde non chauffée et à 160 000 km pour une sonde chauffée. Par ailleurs, la conception actuelle des moteurs donnant en finale de faibles débits de gaz au ralenti avec des températures basses, l'utilisation de sondes chauffées est préférable. 3, record 7, French, - sonde%20d%27oxyg%C3%A8ne%20chauffante
