thermal sensitivity
1thermal illusion — Also known as temperature illusion. Both terms are used to denote a misperception or misinterpretation of temperature stimuli. Examples of thermal illusions are paradoxical cold and paradoxical heat. References Long, R.R. (1977).… …
2Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum — The Paleocene/Eocene boundary, Ma|eocene, was marked by the most rapid and significant climatic disturbance of the Cenozoic Era. A sudden global warming event, leading to the Paleocene Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM, alternatively nowrap| Eocene… …
3High Sensitivity GPS — receivers use large banks of correlators and digital signal processing to search for GPS signals very quickly. This results in very fast times to first fix when the signals are at their normal levels, for example outdoors. When GPS signals are… …
4thermoreception — Sensory capacity (see sense) to detect the temperature of the environment and the body. It helps keep body temperature stable by regulating autonomic responses to temperature changes (see homeostasis). Temperature sensations are generated by… …
5Infrared — For other uses, see Infrared (disambiguation). An image of two people in mid infrared ( thermal ) light (false color) …
6Safety testing of explosives — The safety testing of explosives involves the determination of various properties of the different energetic materials that are used in commercial, mining, and military applications. It is highly desirable to measure the conditions under which… …

8Semiconductor device — Semiconductor devices are electronic components that exploit the electronic properties of semiconductor materials, principally silicon, germanium, and gallium arsenide. Semiconductor devices have replaced thermionic devices (vacuum tubes) in most …
9Software synthesizer — A software synthesizer, also known as a softsynth is a computer program or plug in for digital audio generation. Computer software which can create sounds or music is not new, but advances in processing speed are allowing softsynths to accomplish …
10Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy — (EDS, EDX or EDXRF) is an analytical technique used for the elemental analysis or chemical characterization of a sample. As a type of spectroscopy, it relies on the investigation of a sample through interactions between electromagnetic radiation… …
