Microprobe Design in the 1950s: Some Examples in Europe
نویسنده
چکیده
The early days of the electron microprobe were characterized by the variety of designs emerging from different laboratories in Europe, the United States, and the USSR. Examples from Europe illustrate well the diverging trends in the evolutionary process at that time. Later, commercial pressures and a better understanding of user needs forced a rationalization on both sides of the Atlantic, to the point where only few variants have survived. These were memorable days, with scope for healthy rivalry and vigorous debate.

Multiculturalism and Compassion: Responding to Mental Health Needs Among Refugees and Asylum Seekers; Comment on “A Crisis of Humanitarianism: Refugees at the Gates of Europe”
As Fotaki (2019) argues, the current political climate in Europe is threatening principles of humanitarianism, particularly among refugees and asylum seekers. This commentary builds on that argument, with a spotlight on mental health and culturally relevant service design. By addressing some of the barriers faced by refugees and asylum seekers in accessing mental health...

Background and Aim:There are a number of successful examples of hydatid cyst control, achieved on a national or regional scale in different countries. The earliest successful program was that in Iceland initiated nearly 143 years ago when cystic hydatid disease was recognized as affecting approximately one of every six Icelanders. With a continuous campaign, by the 1950s hydatidosis was consid...
متن کاملSome Modifications to Calculate Regression Coefficients in Multiple Linear Regression
In a multiple linear regression model, there are instances where one has to update the regression parameters. In such models as new data become available, by adding one row to the design matrix, the least-squares estimates for the parameters must be updated to reflect the impact of the new data. We will modify two existing methods of calculating regression coefficients in multiple linear regres...
متن کاملOccurrence of Prehnite, Pumpellyite and Garnet in Biotite from Granitic Rocks of the Canadian Appalachians: A Mineral Chemistry Study Using Electron Microprobe
A particular feature of biotite grains from some of the Canadian Appalachian granitic rocks is the presence of lenses of Ca-Al silicates developed along cleavage planes. These from the more to less common are prehnite, pumpellyite and grandite garnet, an intermediate composition between andradite and grossular. Rarely all three minerals can be observed together in one single biotite grain. Micr...
متن کاملMedium-energy microprobe station at the SXRMB of the CLS.
Micro-XAFS and chemical imaging techniques have been widely applied for studies of heterogeneously distributed systems, mostly in hard X-ray (>5 keV) or in soft X-ray (<1.5 keV) energies. The microprobe endstation of the SXRMB (soft X-ray microcharacterization beamline) at the Canadian Light Source is optimized at the medium energy (1.7-5 keV), and it has been recently commissioned and is avail...
