The sizes of atoms, nuclei, and nucleons are measured by firing a beam of electrons at an appropriate target.
ATLAS measures elevation by firing 10,000 laser pulses every second and marking the time that it takes the photons in those pulses to travel from the satellite to the Earth's surface and back.
It claimed the measures were needed to prevent employers lowering their wage bill by firing workers.
In other words, measures by those firing the missiles to confuse the missile defense into thinking it is hitting a target when it is not.
The United States Navy tested guns by measuring them, firing them two or three times termed "proof by powder"—and using pressurized water to detect leaks.
To control for this, we also measured firing rate in 200ms bins shifted by 1ms.
Reference waveguides measured by end-fire coupling have low radiation and insertion losses (0.3 and 2.5 dB, respectively).
These changes are reflected in a significant increase of vegetation sensitivity to forest fires measured by the forest fire risk (FR) index developed in the framework of MEDALUS project.
A typical MRI machine, which measures neural firing indirectly, by tracking blood flow, takes a picture every couple of seconds and isn't able to detect anything less than three millimetres long.
The tool combines three steps: first a magnetic pulse is sent through a coil into the brain designed to "wake it up," and then an EEG machine measures brain wave activity produced by neurons firing in response to the pulse.
