摘要:
Method and apparatus for processing a substrate with an energetic particle beam. Features on the substrate are oriented relative to the energetic particle beam and the substrate is scanned through the energetic particle beam. The substrate is periodically indexed about its azimuthal axis of symmetry, while shielded from exposure to the energetic particle beam, to reorient the features relative to the major dimension of the beam.

An apparatus generates and/or maintains fluid flow synthesizing and maintaining an artificial tornado. The apparatus includes a generally cylindrical frame having two chambers coupled with two channels each of one half the entire length of the frame, and having reversed angular coordinates. Each chamber operates to generate and/or maintain a vortex and each channel operates to induce and/or reinforce the vortex along the length of the frame.

A template for teaching a golfer a proper swing includes a false target disposed on a first portion of the template for positioning a golfer at a start of teaching a proper swing. A real target for being struck by the golfer during teaching is not disposed on the first portion of the template. A first marking is disposed on the first portion of the template, the first marking being disposed behind the false target and indicating a position for placing the real target off of the first portion of the template.

Computer systems, methods, and exchanges for generating and trading novel investment products (“Vχlshares”) are described. In some embodiments, the computer system comprises a computer-readable storage medium including data encoding a value for the Vχlshare based on an underlying. The computer-readable storage medium further includes data encoding an expiration date for the Vχlshare. The computer-readable storage medium of the computer further includes data encoding a price for trading the Vχlshare, the price for trading being a function of the underlying. The computer-readable storage medium also includes data encoding an alpha-numeric symbol for the Vχlshare. The computer is configured to enable execution of trades of the Vχlshare on a platform, such as options platform, an OTC platform, or a platform especially designed for the trading of Vχlshares, on which shares of fully collateralized instruments are traded.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for controlling administration of Automatic Call Distributor (ACD) queues of an ACD or network of ACDs by a caller, and of communicating data to an ACD Agent. The caller receives information concerning the status of queues in one or a plurality of ACDs. If the caller wishes to communicate with a particular Agent, wait time for that Agent is provided to the caller. The caller can select a particular Agent, and will be connected when that Agent becomes available subject to other restrictions of the ACD queue. The caller can prepare information for transmission to an answering Agent while the caller waits. Advantageously, the caller can control which Agent or which sub-group of Agents should respond to his/her call, taking into account the different waiting times associated with a particular Agent or the first available Agent when the caller reaches the top of the queue.

This invention relates to improvements in processes and catalysts for elevated temperature, gas phase, catalyzed reactions in general; it is particularly illustrated by reference to the manufacture of hydrogen cyanide.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to new therapeutic uses of compounds of formula: ##STR1## wherein X and Y are oxygen, sulfur, or (CR'R").sub.n wherein n is 1 to 4; R is hydrogen, alkyl, or benzyl; R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are phenyl, substituted phenyl, naphthyl, substituted naphthyl, an aralkyl group, an alkyl chain, adamantyl, or a cycloalkyl group. The uses are cerebrovascular disease such as stroke, peripheral vascular diseases, and restenosis.
摘要:
An improved induction heated reactor apparatus involving a reaction zone with inlet and outlet and containing an array of electrically conductive catalyst entities (susceptor entities) comprising pellets, rings, or rods containing a core externally coated with a substantially uniform and complete catalyst metal (e.g., platinum, platinum-iridium alloy, or platinum-rhodium alloy) wrap, coating, or surface impregnated, or containing the catalyst metal as a foam which are inductively heated to produce chemical product from a catalytic reaction. Such an apparatus is particularly useful in the catalytic generation of HCN at elevated temperatures.
