positions using high frequency AC. The input was switched using a combination of a rotary selector and keys; only one shaft could be read at a time. As a consequence position setting was performed sequentially ... quite unique. Elsewhere it was used only as a computer interface; exceptionally LEDs signalled a limited functionality. At the ILL this ...

inequality in the workplace was given a new tool: the gender equality index. This index takes the form of a score out of 100 and makes it possible to assess the gender pay gap in a particular company. It is based ... Institute wishes to ensure that women feel included, that they thrive and develop a strong sense of belonging. The signature of a ...

of a 3He spin filter for a given neutron wavelength. The polarisation efficiency is defined by the equation below where p is the 3He pressure in bar, l is the effective length of the cell in cm, a.T is ... He3EfficiencySDev function returns the standard deviation of the polarisation efficiency of a 3He spin filter for a given neutron wavelength ...

will be 3D, each layer containing data of a specific flipper state. If a flipper that is 'off' is labelled with a 0 and a flipper that is 'on' is labelled with a 1, the arrays will be stacked in binary fashion ... create a workspace from a series of datasets with different flipper states NECESSARY VARIABLES nums=EITHER a string with the filenumbers ...

field. The NICOLE data were multichannel data blocks, but included a few standard scaler values and a text block which usually held quite a good description of the measurement, but was hand-edited. The data ... Each run included a ten character field NOMEXP, which was usually changed for each set of measurements, simplifying copying to tape without ...

considerable stress on a cell. If enough cells experience excessive and prolonged stress this can result in tissue death and serious disease. As a testament to the importance of maintaining a balance between ... crystallography (which requires proteins to pack into a rigid crystalline state) or Cryo-EM (in which the sample must be frozen in a ...

elevated temperatures. A popular suspect for causing superconductivity in high Tc materials is charge stripes. The stripes are created by a process known as ‘doping’ where an element with a different number ... opposing zero resistance to the passage of an electric current when cooled down below a critical temperature Tc is a highly prized property ...

organic molecules known as lipids and a chemical called squalane, to create a model of the cell membranes of single-celled organisms called archaea. Archaea are a class of organisms, alongside bacteria ... suspected that a type of organic chemical, called apolar isoprenoids, might have a crucial role to play in helping archaea survive extreme ...

was able to synthesise a substantial quantity of highly pure cubic ice by decomposing powdered ice XVII – a synthetic form of ice that takes up a cage-like structure called a clathrate . In the process ... “A pictorial representation of the atomic structure of cubic and hexagonal ice. A slice of hexagonal ice (Ih) is sandwiched between two layers ...
