TARGET EXPOSURE [13 records]

Record 1 2022-05-31

English

Subject field(s)
  • Optics
  • Computer Graphics
  • Photography
CONT

The image recorded on the holographic plate is called a hologram of the target, which carries both the amplitude and phase of the returned, scattered beam from the target. The first exposure of the holographic plate by the reference beam results in a reference hologram, while the second exposure by the returned beam imposes all changes of the target to the reference hologram.

Record 2 2021-10-18

English

Subject field(s)
  • Radiography (Medicine)
CONT

The distance between the source of the X-ray beam(the tube target) and the IR [image receptor] is referred to as the source-image distance(SID). This distance is a prime factor of exposure because it affects the intensity of the X-ray beam.

DEF

Distancia entre el punto focal y la superficie del receptor de imagen.

Record 4 2006-05-29

English

Subject field(s)
  • Biological Sciences
  • Hygiene and Health
CONT

Evaluation of an intended nutritional change requires steps that are similar to those used in either the addition of a vitamin or mineral nutrient to a food or the evaluation of foods with health claims or both. For instance, such a change would trigger questions concerning the intended target group, what level of the targeted nutrient or other bioactive substance is expected in the food, what is the expected change in level of exposure to the targeted nutrient or other bioactive substance across all age and sex groups and at the upper and lower extremes of intake of the food, and the safety of this level of exposure.

DEF

A site-specific environmental quality concentration developed from basic exposure principles(equations) and the use of a pre-defined target risk estimate [which] is used for chemical screening.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Études et analyses environnementales
  • Toxicologie
DEF

Concentration décrivant la qualité de l'environnement propre à un site, élaborée selon des principes d'exposition de base (équations) et au moyen d'une estimation cible pré-définie des risques, [utilisée à des] fins de dépistage chimique.

Subject field(s)
  • Environmental Law

CONT

For most pollutants, levels and exposures are known to vary widely over the globe, depending on the proximity of the sampling points to the points of emission and on a variety of other factors, such as the reconcentration of the agents along certain pathways. GEMS is expected to help determine which of the various pathways leading to target exposure are critical.
