"carriage paid to" means that the seller delivers the goods to the carrier nominated by him but the seller must in addition pay the cost of carriage necessary to bring the goods to the named destination. This means that the buyer bears all risks and any other costs occurring after the goods have been so delivered. "carrier" means any person who, in a contract of carriage, undertakes to perform or to procure the performance of transport, by rail, road, air, sea, inland waterway or by a combination of such modes. If subsequent carriers are used for the carriage to the agreed destination, the risk passes when the goods have been delivered to the first carrier. The CPT term requires the seller to clear the goods for export. This term may be used irrespective of the mode of transport including multimodal transport. 2, record 4, English, - carriage%20paid%20to

«port payé jusqu'à» signifie que le vendeur a dûment livré dès lors qu'il a mis la marchandise à la disposition du transporteur nommé par ses soins; cependant le vendeur doit en outre payer les frais de transport pour l'acheminement de la marchandise jusqu'au lieu de destination convenu. Il s'ensuit que l'acheteur doit assumer tous les risques et tous les autres frais encourus par la marchandise postérieurement à sa livraison comme indiqué ci-dessus. Le mot «transporteur» désigne toute personne qui s'engage, en vertu d'un contrat de transport, à effectuer ou à faire effectuer un transport par rail, route, air, mer, voies navigables intérieures ou par une combinaison de ces divers modes. En cas de recours à des transporteurs successifs pour assurer le transport jusqu'au lieu de destination convenu, le risque est transféré dès la remise de la marchandise au premier transporteur. Le terme CPT exige que le vendeur dédouane la marchandise à l'exportation.

Gene-chip technology may soon allow rapid detection of airborne biological warfare agents. In May, the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency ... announced a $2 million project to develop an early warning system based on ID Biomedical Corporation's (British Columbia) cycling-probe technology (CPT)- a process whereby constructed DNA probes recognize and bind complimentary DNA fragments from specific bacteria and viruses. Enzyne cleavage of the bound probe frees the agent DNA to bind more probe in subsequent cycles, which are repeated until there is enough cleaved probe for fluorescence or chemoluminescence detection. 3, record 6, English, - cycling%2Dprobe%20technology

Les méthodes de perturbation ont joué un rôle important en physique des réacteurs depuis les débuts des applications de l’énergie nucléaire, notamment dans le domaine des expériences critiques et des mesures. Déjà Wigner en 1945 en proposait la formulation plus élémentaire, la CPT (Classical Perturbation Theory, théorie classique des perturbations), issue directement des concepts classiques de la mécanique quantique, pour mesurer le poids en réactivité de petits échantillons de matériaux introduits dans une pile atomique. Dans les premières années du développement du nucléaire civil, les méthodes de perturbation occupèrent une place très importante dans les analyses de sûreté car, en raison des moyens de calcul très limités, les études étaient généralement effectuées dans l’approximation à zéro dimension, moyennant l’utilisation de coefficients de sensibilité obtenus justement à l’aide de la méthode CPT. 1, record 7, French, - th%C3%A9orie%20classique%20des%20perturbations

Une découverte ultérieure, la non-conservation de la symétrie PC relativement au théorème d'invariance CPT, a permis de nuancer cette théorie. En effet, les physiciens considéraient auparavant que, pour la microphysique, il n'y avait vraisemblablement pas - en théorie - d'irréversibilité du temps. On sait maintenant que, comme en macrophysique (entropie/néguentropie), le temps positif, objectif (du passé vers le futur, «causal») et le temps négatif, subjectif (du futur vers le passé, «final») ne sont pas symétriques. 1, record 9, French, - th%C3%A9or%C3%A8me%20d%26rsquo%3Binvariance%20CPT
