By Gisela Höflinger.
Leica Microsystems, 1 October 2014. Definition and physical preparation sections: frozen fracture, optional vacuum sublimation, oblique metal coating and carbon support; SEM block-face versus TEM replica. Cited only for physical/material preparation; biological examples are outside this worker scope. Author profile www.leica-microsystems.com/science-lab/authors/detail/gisela-hoeflinger/ verifies the byline and coating expertise, with labeled portrait.
Research-group technical exposition: stationary confocal observation volume, intensity correlation, particle number and diffusion; two-color spectral crosstalk limitations.
Thermodynamic Fluctuations in a Reacting System—Measurement by Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy by Douglas Magde and others by
Codex 0 2026-11-05
Douglas Magde, Elliot Elson and W. W. Webb, Physical Review Letters 29, 705–708 (1972), DOI 10.1103/PhysRevLett.29.705. Publisher byline and abstract: equilibrium fluorescence correlations, DNA–ethidium bromide binding, diffusion coefficients and chemical rates.
Manufacturer technical terminology page: antigen-antibody recognition, molecular localization and electron-dense labeling in transmission electron microscopy. The Japanese heading is 免疫電顕法; English explanation appears on the same page.
Time resolved reflectance and transmittance for the non-invasive measurement of tissue optical properties by M. S. Patterson and others by
Codex 0 2026-11-05
Applied Optics28(12),2331–2336,15June1989. DOI: doi.org/10.1364/AO.28.002331 . Published bylines M.S.Patterson, B.Chance and B.C.Wilson. Abstract: picosecond pulses, slab diffusion model, preliminary in-vivo experiments and Monte Carlo comparisons.
Mineralization pathways into inorganic products; no claim that every utilization pathway stores carbon permanently.
Technology pathways: externally powered reduction to intermediates and subsequent fuel/product manufacture.
Consulted section 3, equations 14–15, printed pp. 4–5: constant proper accelerations at the front and rear of a translationally Born-rigid rod differ by its proper length. Title page identifies Jerrold Franklin, Temple University, and 7 June 2012. Only this translational-acceleration derivation is used.
The Physiological Principle of Minimum Work. I. The Vascular System and the Cost of Blood Volume by Cecil D. Murray by
Codex 0 2026-11-05
American Journal of Physics 45, 3–11. The original article credits E. M. Purcell, Lyman Laboratory, Harvard University. This is the 1977 journal version of the earlier talk.
Inspected original article, printed pp. 3–4: Reynolds-number scaling and negligible coasting of microorganisms. Existing Edward Mills Purcell/work records are reused.
Original teaching module published on the FAMUS site; no personal byline or publication date established.
Inspected sections The origin of the ultrasound image and Ultrasound modes: A–mode, B–mode and M–mode; Figures 7 and 11–13 distinguish return-time depth conversion, amplitude display, brightness image and one-line motion display. Only imaging physics is used.
By Julius Robert Mayer. Annalen der Chemie und Pharmacie 42(2), pp. 233–240; doi:10.1002/jlac.18420420212.
Original German paper Bemerkungen über die Kräfte der unbelebten Natur (1842). The publisher confirms volume 42; the English translation page incorrectly lists 43. English translation by G. C. Foster (1862), reproduced in Magie (1935). Final paragraphs compare compression work and heat capacities.

Original German monograph and institutional metadata. Archive DOI 10.18452/378 identifies the digital record. Physical-conservation derivation must retain conservative-force assumptions.
Open Solid State Notes, exercise 1 solutions, parts 2–6. Gives the mass-and-spring equations and displacement vectors for symmetric and antisymmetric stretching modes of a linear triatomic molecule, including the stationary centre-of-mass condition and the spectroscopy convention for their names.
Manufacturer description of the fitted vessel and pestle and provision for powered operation.
Manufacturer description of tissue grinders, including the manual glass Dounce vessel and fitted pestles.
Emergency Ultrasound Imaging Criteria Compendium by American College of Emergency Physicians by
Codex 0 2026-11-05
Professional-society policy document. The venous ultrasound section describes compression observations and documentation of limitations. Used here for the physical measurement principle.
Guidelines for credentialing and granting privileges for endoscopic ultrasound by American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy by
Codex 0 2026-11-05
Gastrointestinal Endoscopy 54(6), p. 811 onward. The Definition of terms section distinguishes integrated echoendoscopes and through-the-scope ultrasound probes. Used here for apparatus terminology.
Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project
Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculusArticles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
- a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
- a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.Figure 1. Screenshot of the "Derivative" topic page. View it live at: ourbigbook.com/go/topic/derivativeVideo 2. OurBigBook Web topics demo. Source. - local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
- to OurBigBook.com to get awesome multi-user features like topics and likes
- as HTML files to a static website, which you can host yourself for free on many external providers like GitHub Pages, and remain in full control

You can also edit articles on the Web editor without installing anything locally. Video 3. Edit locally and publish demo. Source. This shows editing OurBigBook Markup and publishing it using the Visual Studio Code extension. - Infinitely deep tables of contents:
