After considering such possibilities, one is left with the impression that exoelectron emission seems to depend on an unusual combination of favorable circumstances. In fact, calculations based on the rates of exoelectron emission confirm that the production of an exoelectron is a rare event. ... If exoelectron emission were normal surface behavior, one might expect each surface atom to be the site for the emission of at least one electron, so that in the course of several days a total of 10 [to the 15th power] exoelectrons might be emitted from each square centimeter of freshly exposed surface. 1, record 2, English, - exoelectron%20emission

Line quadrupling is similar to line doubling except that the number of horizontal scan lines are increased by a factor of four instead of two. Increasing the horizontal scan rate by a factor of four (to 63 kHz), allows most CRT's [cathode ray tubes] to obtain a range of optimum efficiency, maximizing light output with projector light output up to 60% brighter than NTSC, PAL, or SECAM displays. In addition to increased picture brightness, the image becomes smoother and has a "film-like" quality. 2, record 5, English, - line%20quadrupling
