  Internal conversion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Internal conversion is a radioactive decay process where an excited nucleus interacts with an electron in one of the lower electron shells causing the electron to be emitted.
The internal conversion process is not actually the photoelectric ejection of an atomic electron, as the nucleus does not actually emit a gamma ray in the first place in this process.
The tendency towards internal conversion can be determined by the internal conversion coefficient, which is empirically determined by the ratio of de-excitations that go by the emission of electrons to those that go by gamma emission.

 Mills, William Raymond (1955-01-01) Absolute measurements of internal conversion coefficients. ...
The combination of conversion electron and gamma yield measurements constitutes an experimental determination of an internal conversion coefficient, and by comparison with theory it is possible to make gamma-ray multipole order assignments.
We have measured the conversion coefficients and found the 1.06-Mev line to be M4 with E2 indicated for the 0.57-Mev line.
We have measured the conversion coefficient of the 440-kev transition and assign it either E1 or M1, the experimental uncertainties preventing a definite assignment.

 Radioactivity
Internal conversion is the use of electromagnetic energy from the nucleus to expel an orbital electron from the atom.
Internal conversion is another electromagnetic process which can occur in the nucleus and which competes with gamma emission.
Since the internal conversion process can interact with any of the orbital electrons, the result is a spectrum of internal conversion electrons which will be seen as superimposed upon the electron energy spectrum of the beta emission.

 13. Of Conversion.
Conversion, though it may seem, in some respects, to fall in with regeneration and the effectual calling, yet may be distinguished from them both.
Conversion lies in a man’s being turned from darkness to light; the apostle says, he was sent by Christ to the Gentiles, as a minister of the gospel, "to turn them from darkness to light" (Acts 26:18), that is, to be the instrument or means of their conversion, by preaching the gospel to them.
Not by the power of man; what is said of the conversion or turning of the Jews from their captivity, is true of the conversion of a sinner, that it is "not by might nor by power", that is not of man, "but by my Spirit, as saith the Lord of hosts" (Zech.

 In-Beam Conversion Electron Spectroscopy
When internal conversion becomes the dominant decay mode, measurement of internal conversion electrons is preferable to gamma-ray spectroscopy in order to probe the structure of the nucleus.
The prompt internal conversion electrons produced at the target are transported to the Si detector upstream of the target by the solenoidal magnetic field.
The device is operated in (close to) collinear geometry, such that the solenoid field axis is at an angle of approximately 2.5 degrees to the beam axis, the beam passing on one side of the detector array to the target.

 5. Alcohol and cotton oil as alternative fuels for internal combustion engines
The internal element collapses after the glue that bonds it together is softened by the alcohol.
The problem of this conversion is that DME conversion becomes poor at high speed and at low loads due to the drops of exhaust gas temperature.
After conversion, several contrast tests between the original engine and the converted engine were carried out in order to investigate the engine characteristics, including velocity performance and load performance, exhaust gases, zero load performance, vehicle's travelling performance, and corrosion and wearing.

 Internal files   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The 'internal file' conversion mechanism takes character strings, or arrays of character strings, and formally treats them as if they were real files.
Internal arrays can be thought of as files that resides in main memory, instead of on disk.
The syntax of internal file statements is like that of formatted read and write, the only difference is that instead of the LOGICAL UNIT you put the string (string array) name.

The dynamic effects describing the interaction of the shell electrons with the nuclear charge and currents give rise to additional transition matrix elements (penetration matrix elements) through which the internal conversion process depends on the structure of the nucleus.
The electric monoploe (Eo) internal conversion transition that is the most important penetration effect is also taken into account.

To explain external versus internal is relatively easy; external format is the form in which a piece of data is readable to humans; internal format, as briefly introduced in Chapter 1, most often makes sense only to the computer.
Figure 7-3 illustrates what happens when a time is converted from its external format to its internal format, as well as the various time conversions that may be applied to internal times.
Once a date is converted to its internal equivalent, it may be output formatted with any of the many types of date conversions.

 Jonathan E. Sisk's "Pick/BASIC: A Programmer's Guide": Chapter 8
The MR conversion is used to convert numeric amounts to their internal equivalents (remember that on dollar amounts the internal format represents the number of pennies):
The MR2 conversion places the decimal point two positions from the right end of the numeric string; when "MR2" is followed by a comma, the conversion places the decimal point two positions from the right end of the numeric string and puts commas in every third position to the left of the decimal point.
The MR conversion provides a feature which fills the print field with either blanks, zeros, or asterisks; this is essentially the same as print (format) masking.

Conversions between complex numbers and the other numeric types do not in general make sense, so complex numbers will not be discussed further.
The two data representations are equivalent and a conversion of integers with set attributes to reals and then back to integers will reproduce the original data exactly, except for limits incurred by range and precision.
Thus, when the scaling attributes are unset, a conversion of integers to reals and back again to integers will not in general reproduce the same set of values.

The program calculates internal conversion coefficients for all atomic subshells from K up to Q1.

The method is especially useful in cases in which no precise conversion coefficients are available (outer atomic shells, low atomic numbers, high transition energies).

 Will Publishers Still Need Internal Salespeople? » Conversion Rater
Fred Wilson discusses the rise of third-party ad networks and wonders if in the near future publishers will be earning better eCPMs from ad networks then from deals their own internal salespeople can sell.
I think this is a case that can’t be generalized.  There will always be some high value CPM campaigns out there that can’t be automated through a third-party ad network, and the advertiser will have to work directly with the publisher’s sales team on negotiating and implementing custom campaigns.
Of course, there are ad networks and rep firms that do this already, thus alleviating the need for many publishers to have a sales team, but in the case of very large publishers, they keep more profit from having some employees on staff to sell and implement direct campaigns.
