    The CT scanner Depends upon several steps:- 1-The x-ray tube and detector transverse (scan) the object. 2-The radiation beam passes through the object and is attenuated. The intensity of radiation beam from x- ray tube and transmitted beam both are detected by suitable detectors. 3-The transmitted beam and the references beam are both converted into electric signals. 4-These output current signals are then converted into digital form by analog –to-digital converter. 5-The digital data are…

    the theory or conception can not be really proven wrong, but at the same time it is delusional. The chapter is named the way it is because the elements that are discussed in chapter 15 have a history leading into pathological science. When William Crookes was young, he studied the element selenium. Selenium is usually found in animals, but sometimes are found in humans’ bloodstream if they are affected with AIDs. Selenium is very toxic in large doses. One of the people aware of the danger of…

    Research for AS91172 Billy Barrow From Thompson 's Model to Rutherford 's Model By the time that Joseph John Thompson confirmed that Cathode Rays were made up of negatively charged particles in 1897. The groundwork for the idea of the atom had been in the works for many years. From ideas from Leucippus and Democritus from ancient Greece who first proposed the idea of 'atomos ' meaning “inadvisable”. This idea of the smallest thing went on largely ignored in favour of the ideas of Aristotle,…

    These contents of these tubes are in a vacuum (no air inside), where the tube contains two oppositely charged electrodes - one on each side. One of the electrodes (the cathode) fires electrons at the other (the anode) when voltage is added to the system. When Thomson turned the tube on, he saw a beam of "light" between the two electrodes. To figure out what this “light” was, he applied a magnetic field to the contents of the tube and found out that the beam moved toward a positive…

    Development of the atomic theory throughout history Abstract This paper will explain many concepts of the atomic theory. It will also include very important information that involves 15 scientists and their contributions to the atomic theory. There are many different models that scientists constructed, that they believed atoms looked like. There are only 5 atomic models that have ever been accepted. Our perspective on the atom has changed throughout the years…

    – equation (2 gives info on location of electron in terms of probability density - wave functions are called orbitals – [pic], where E is energy, e2 is electric potential, r is orbital radius and h is Planck’s constant 1925 Wolfgang Pauli – each orbital has only 2 electrons is now explained due to direction of spin of electrons. Spinning electrons create magnetic field. Only 2 electrons of opposite spin in an orbital referred to as Pauli exclusion principle Hund’s rule – half fill…

    disagree with him. Democritus said that atoms moved through empty space, which Aristotle said did not exist. (Early Ideas Prezi) These experiments were the fundamental building blocks needed to come up with this theory. It began with Sir William Crookes who accidently discovered the cathode ray.…

    November 8th, 1895 is a day that will forever be considered one of the most significant days in the world of medicine. This is the day that a German Scientist named Wilhelm C. Roentgen accidentally discovered the x-ray while experimenting with a Crookes tube. This discovery allowed the inside of the human body to be viewed without having to perform unnecessary surgery. From this discovery, x-rays became “a key element in the identification, diagnosing, and treatment of many types of medical…

    Orion Sommer Mrs. Weatherington Sophomores--3 September, 2015 I-Search I-Search Plasma A couple of weeks ago, a YouTube channel called "TheGameTheorists" uploaded a video about how the people in Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z harness their Ki and shoot lasers with it. Ever since I watched that video I 've been interested in learning more about plasma. The video is mainly about how these people use plasma to their advantage. He talks about how schools never teach us about plasma, how it 's the…

    reduced pressure, then the voltage is then applied across two electrodes inside the container, a discharge will then occur allowing the gas to become conductive. One of the most important experiment in the discovery of electrons was the Cathode Rays tube. The above experiment reveals bright lines are observed to come from the cathode, negative electrode also known as Cathode Rays. Before there were many controversy over the nature of cathode rays. Many German physicists thought that cathode rays…
