The idea of advertising value equivalency(AVE) has been around for many years. It has generated much debate in the public relations industry, with this debate focusing on both its reliability and validity. Many people are attracted to it because it appears able to put a dollar value on media coverage and, by extension, allows media relations people to compare their results with advertising. 1, record 4, English, - advertising%20value%20equivalency

One of the chief problems in any accelerator system is that of maintaining spatial control over the beam; this requires some form of focusing.... A wide variety of focusing principles and devices are used in different accelerator types. The natural bowing-out of magnetic field lines in a cyclotron magnet results in a net focusing action... ;so also does the electrostatic field line configuration between drift tubes of many simple linear accelerators. But these systems are classed generally as "weak-focusing" approaches. 1, record 11, English, - weak%2Dfocusing
