ABSTRACT
Measurements of the dielectric constant and the effective parallel conductance of a specimen of anomalous water suggest that anomalous water is a hydrosol consisting of finely divided particulate matter suspended in ordinary water. Scanning electron micrography confirms the presence of particulate matter. These new experimental data provide an alternative explanation for the properties of anomalous water.
ABSTRACT
Heterodyne detection of infrared radiation by cryogenically cooled extrinsic photoconductors is reviewed. Operational characteristics of a highly compensated Ge : Hg detector are calculated from experimentally determined material parameters. In many cases wideband, quantum noise limited performance can be obtained only if substantial refrigeration capacity is available at detector operating temperature.
