Method for Determining an Unknown Absorbed Dose of Radiation Using Optically Stimulated Luminescence
(U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, 1999-04-06)
A bimodal method for determining an unknown absorbed dose of radiation. An irradiated material is illuminated with ultraviolet or visible light and the luminescence which is emitted from the material is detected. The ...
Magnetic Float Polishing of Magnetic Materials
(U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, 1999-09-28)
A methodology for conducting magnetic float polishing of magnetic materials. This is accomplished by isolating the magnetic workpiece from any appreciable magnetic induction and subsequently polishing the magnetic workpiece ...
Magnetic Float Polishing Processes and Materials Therefor
(U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, 1999-08-03)
A methodology for finishing of HIP'ed Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 balls from the as-received condition by magnetic fluid polishing. It involves mechanical removal of material initially using harder abrasives with respect to the work ...
Method for the Fast Determination of an Unknown Absorbed Dose of Radiation with High Sensitivity Using Optically Stimulated Luminescence
(U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, 1999-10-05)
The optically stimulated luminescence generated from a luminescent material having a relatively long lifetime of luminescence is measured by using short pulses of laser light stimulation and detecting luminescence only ...
Methods for Improving Meat Tenderness
(U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, 1999-10-19)
A method for increasing the tenderness of livestock meat tissues. The method involves increasing the calcium concentration in livestock muscle tissue prior to harvest of the animal to a degree sufficient to activate or ...
