  2. Faraday cage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_cage

    A Faraday cage or Faraday shield is an enclosure used to block some electromagnetic fields. A Faraday shield may be formed by a continuous covering of conductive material, or in the case of a Faraday cage, by a mesh of such materials. Faraday cages are named after scientist Michael Faraday, who first constructed one in 1836. [1]

  3. Electromagnetic shielding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_shielding

    A conductive enclosure used to block electrostatic fields is also known as a Faraday cage. The amount of reduction depends very much upon the material used, its thickness, the size of the shielded volume and the frequency of the fields of interest and the size, shape and orientation of holes in a shield to an incident electromagnetic field.

  4. Comparison of real-time operating systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_real-time...

    This is a list of real-time operating systems (RTOSs). This is an operating system in which the time taken to process an input stimulus is less than the time lapsed until the next input stimulus of the same type.

  5. Everhart–Thornley detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Everhart–Thornley_detector

    The E-T secondary electron detector can be used in the SEM's back-scattered electron mode by either turning off the Faraday cage or by applying a negative voltage to the Faraday cage. However, better back-scattered electron images come from dedicated BSE detectors rather than from using the E–T detector as a BSE detector.

  6. Electromagnetic interference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_interference

    A variant of this is the high altitude EMP (HEMP) nuclear weapon, designed to create the pulse as its primary destructive effect. Non-nuclear electromagnetic pulse (NNEMP) weapons. Sources of repetitive EMP events, sometimes as regular pulse trains, include: Electric motors; Electrical ignition systems, such as in gasoline engines.

  7. TOSS (operating system) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOSS_(operating_system)

    The Tri-Lab Operating System Stack (TOSS) is a Linux distribution based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) that was created to provide a software stack [1] for high performance computing (HPC) clusters [2] for laboratories within the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA). [3]

  8. Comparison of executable file formats - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_executable...

    In addition to the binary application code, the executables may contain headers and tables with relocation and fixup information as well as various kinds of meta data. Among those formats listed, the ones in most common use are PE (on Microsoft Windows), ELF (on Linux and most other versions of Unix), Mach-O (on macOS and iOS) and MZ (on DOS).

  9. Partial discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_discharge

    Depending on the provider of the system, the partial discharge outputs are accessible through either a local area network, via modem or even a via web-based viewer. The ability to differentiate between various types of partial discharge (PD) and accurately locate them is crucial for effective PD testing and monitoring.
