The block diagram of a radiometer with semiconductor detectors for the measurement of alpha particles is described. The discrimination is attained by introduction of a pulse amplitude selector in the narrow zone corresponding to the position of the spectral lines of the emitter. The high stability of the response is attained by use of a system for the self-stabilization of the energy characteristics [...] A pulse shape selector is used for reduction of the background level resulting from [a] noise.(trauth). 1, record 1, English, - pulse%20shape%20selector

A diagram in which the major strains at the onset of necking in sheet metal are plotted vertically and the corresponding minor strains are plotted horizontally. The onset-of-failure line divides all possible strain combinations into two zones : the safe zone(in which failure during forming is not expected) and the failure zone(in which failure during forming is expected). 2, record 2, English, - forming%20limit%20diagram
