auger method
1Auger electron spectroscopy — (AES; Auger pronounced|oːʒeː in French) is a common analytical technique used specifically in the study of surfaces and, more generally, in the area of materials science. Underlying the spectroscopic technique is the Auger effect, as it has come… …
2Auger electron spectroscopy — noun Date: 1970 an instrumental method for determining the chemical composition of a material s surface by means of analysis of the energies of Auger electrons emitted from the surface called also Auger spectroscopy …
3auger electron spectroscopy — noun Usage: usually capitalized A : an instrumental method for determining the chemical composition of a material s surface by means of analysis of the energies of Auger electrons emitted from the surface called also Auger spectroscopy …
4auger mining — ▪ coal mining method for recovering coal (coal mining) by boring into a coal seam at the base of strata exposed by excavation. Normally one of the lowest cost techniques of mining, it is limited to horizontal or slightly pitched seams that… …
5Reassignment method — The method of reassignment is a technique forsharpening a time frequency representation by mappingthe data to time frequency coordinates that are nearer tothe true region of support of theanalyzed signal. The method has been… …
6Surface mining methods — Auger mining recovers coal through the use of a large diameter drill driven into a coalbed in the side of a surface mine pit. It usually follows contour surface mining, particularly when the overburden is too costly to excavate. Area mining… …
7electron spectroscopy — method of determining the energy with which electrons are bound in chemical species by measuring the kinetic energies of the electrons emitted upon bombardment of the species with X ray or ultraviolet radiation. Details of the structure may …
8coal mining — Coal was very important in the economic development of Britain. It was used as fuel in the factories built during the Industrial Revolution and continued to be important until the 1980s. The main coalfields are in north east England, the north… …
