Sentence examples for bombarding material from inspiring English sources

He started preparing his machine, which is fairly simple, as we will describe it: it consists of a holder for radioactive bombarding material, a chamber for the substance to be bombarded, and an indicator called an oscilloscope, which registers on a screen by dots and lines the amount of energy given off by whatever substance is under fire.

To calculate this local order parameter, physicists typically have to use methods such as bombarding materials with neutrons to locate the positions of atoms within them.

The shutters to another instrument one that measures composition by bombarding materials with x-rays did not open, so the instrument measured mostly the titanium and copper of the shutters.

At the Matter in Extreme Conditions (MEC) instrument, she'll bombard materials with intense light from a high-power laser, setting off shock waves that heat and compress the material.

Physicists have found a way to bombard materials with extremely fast x-ray pulses--a technique that may provide a new method of studying transitions from solid to liquid at a very detailed level.

A highly ionized state of matter achieved either by heating some material to very high temperatures (hundreds and thousands of degrees), or bombarding a material by a strong flux of high energy photons.

The required exhaust of heat through the material is like placing it at the surface of the sun, while at the same time the plasma is bombarding the material with enormous quantities of damaging high-energy particles.

Decades-old experiments have shown that the current density a superconductor can carry may be increased by bombarding the material with high-energy ion beams.

At the same time, experimentalists can bombard the material with X-rays to investigate its crystalline structure and explore how the material changes as it is pushed to high temperatures and pressures.

The team acknowledges other possible explanations for the difference, including that Earth was bombarded by material with a lower oxygen isotope ratio at some time after the impact.

Low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) is a method of bombarding a crystalline material with a collimated beam of electrons and then observing the resulting diffraction patterns to determine the structure of the material.
