What's the difference between auger and juger?

Auger


Definition:

  • (n.) A carpenter's tool for boring holes larger than those bored by a gimlet. It has a handle placed crosswise by which it is turned with both hands. A pod auger is one with a straight channel or groove, like the half of a bean pod. A screw auger has a twisted blade, by the spiral groove of which the chips are discharge.
  • (n.) An instrument for boring or perforating soils or rocks, for determining the quality of soils, or the nature of the rocks or strata upon which they lie, and for obtaining water.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Auger spectroscopy and ion sputtering technique have shown that in surface of new archs oxygen and carbon are present up to about 300 A depth.
  • (2) The problem of determining RBE values for Auger emitters incorporated into proliferating mammalian cells is examined.

  • (4) Using an instrument equipped with two electron guns, an electron analyzer, and a Si(Li) diode detector, we developed microanalytical techniques based on inner-shell electron excitations by incident electrons and X-rays, that is, electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) in the reflection mode; electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) and X-ray appearance potential spectroscopy (XAPS); electron-induced Auger electron spectroscopy (e-AES); X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS); X-ray induced AES (XAES), X-ray fluorescence analysis (XRF), and scanning X-ray radiography (SXR).
  • (5) It was hypothesized that the enhanced IUdR radiosensitization for 60 keV photons was a result of a larger production of Auger electron cascades from the filling of K-shell vacancies in the iodine atoms, which have a K-shell binding energy of 33.2 keV.
  • (6) Radiation spectra for radionuclides currently provided by the MIRD Committee and ICRP do not include the very low-energy N- and O-shell Auger electrons.
  • (7) We conclude that Auger electrons produced following photoelectric absorption of X rays by the K-shell of bromine contribute minimally to observed BUdR cellular radiosensitization.
  • (8) Among newer procedures are laser and auger angioplasty, catheter atherectomy and stents.
  • (9) Auger electron spectroscopy results indicate residual iodine was either left on the surface or implanted beneath the surface during iodine ion milling.

  • (11) The radiations studied were 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 MeV monoenergetic electrons and 32P, 67Cu, 90Y, 105Rh, 131I, 153Sm, 186Re, and 188Re beta particles and conversion and Auger electrons.
  • (12) However, gadolinium-157 (157Gd) n-gamma reaction is also accompanied by some internal conversion and, by implication, Auger electron emission.
  • (13) Most of the radionuclides used in nuclear medicine emit low energy Auger electrons following radioactive decay.
  • (14) It may be concluded that a major part of the enhancement was caused by inner-shell photoionization, followed by an Auger cascade of the bromine in the DNA.
