The Voluntary Fund for Technical Cooperation in the Field of Human Rights was established in 1987 by the Secretary General. It is funded from voluntary contributions and provides technical cooperation to countries upon Government's request. Projects are implemented within the framework of the Technical Cooperation Programme, administered by the Office of the United Nations High Commission for Human Rights. A Board of Trustees was created in 1993 to assist in fund-raising and to provide expert advice and support for the Voluntary Fund. Members are appointed by the Secretary-General for three years and are chosen for their independence and wide experience in the field of human and technical cooperation. 1, record 4, English, - United%20Nations%20Voluntary%20Fund%20for%20Advisory%20Services%20and%20Technical%20Assistance%20in%20the%20Field%20of%20Human%20Rights

Il est alimenté par des contributions volontaires et fournit des services de coopération technique aux pays dont le gouvernement le demande. Des projets sont exécutés dans le cadre du Programme de coopération technique, administré par le Haut Commissaire aux droits de l'homme/Centre pour les droits de l'homme. Un Conseil d’administration a été créé en 1993 pour aider à la collecte des fonds et fournir des avis consultatifs et un appui au Fonds de contributions volontaires.

Indiana University Laboratory for Spectrochemistry. Plasma Source Mass Spectrometry. "Single-Crystal Scintillator-Based Array Detector for Sector-Field Mass Spectrometry," [by] David A. Solyom. Beginning with the use of photographic plates in the first quarter of this century, array detectors have had a long history of usage in mass-spectrometric analysis. Array detectors are position-sensitive devices capable of independently measuring ion signals that are incident at different locations on the detector's face. Currently popular among the different types of array detectors available for mass spectrometry are microchannel-plate(s) (MCP) coupled with a phosphor .... The electrons emitted from the rear of the MCP strike the phosphor being held in close proximity (1mm) to the MCP. The phosphor screen is sensitive to the incident electrons and will emit photons in response. The number of emitted photons is proportional to the number of incident electrons and the location on the phosphor from which the photons are emitted coincides with the location of the incident electrons. The photons from the phosphor can then be converted into a proportional electronic signal by an imaging device such as a CCD or CID detector array. 2, record 6, English, - sector%20field%20mass%20spectrometry

Il existe plusieurs traductions du terme «inductively coupled plasma(ICP) »: le plus proche de la description de la technique est «plasma induit par un courant de haute fréquence», le plus simple est «torche à plasma»; pour décrire un «sector field mass spectrometer» nous parlons de «spectromètre de masse à secteur magnétique» ou, plus brièvement, de «spectromètre de masse magnétique». L'équivalent français de ICP-SFMS serait donc «torche à plasma couplée à un spectromètre de masse magnétique»(version courte) ou «plasma induit par un courant de haute fréquence associé à un spectromètre de masse à secteur magnétique»(version longue).
