This spectral gap between the downstream and upstream signals reduces the effect of Rayleigh backscattering and discrete reflections.
The white dashed line indicates the edge of the grain, and the inset FFT shows discrete reflections measuring 0.223 nm, indicating nanocrystalline nature of the outermost layer.
While such discrete reflections do occur and may have substantial magnitude locally, the arrangement of the arterial tree markedly attenuates the backward travel of waves such that a limited amount of reflection is evident in the proximal aorta once the arterial reservoir is accounted for (30, 33, 35).
However, recent work in the systemic vasculature has demonstrated that wave reflections do not arise from a single discrete reflecting site, rather they are an amalgamation of reflections, with more proximal arising waves being exponentially more important (3).
In order to interpret our interference data, we have assumed that the electric field collected by the microscope objective consists of a reflection of the incident electric field from the coverslip-buffer interface and an additional, single reflection from a discrete, protein dense, site near the ventral plasma membrane.
This function has become a given for those who seek sounds like this, and Reflection, as a discrete piece of music, isn't necessarily more useful in the cultural context he describes in his New Year's Day letter than it might have otherwise been.
This may be a reflection of the registry not being a discrete research project where only people who agree to full participation are included.
In practice, there are multiple reflections resulting in overlaying spectra and with additional peaks from spectral leakage — a side effect of a discrete Fourier transform due to a finite sample count N (e.g., Lyons, 2010).
Because each is like a discrete galaxy.
Each rack was a discrete planet.
