Attached is a brainteaser which I think is cute. Too late for the April
fool's day but still...
Some comments: three consecutive scans of the same sample were taken in
this order: scan 1, 2 and 3. Duration: 30 minutes per scan.
If these data look unusual to you please tell us why and what
MessageThe most obvious explanation for why the post-edge scans line up and the
pre-edges don't is that the transmission chamber
current amp or V/F is saturated and reads a fixed value below the edge. As the
ring current decays, I0 goes down while
It is fixed below the edge, so ln(I0/It)
I apologize to everyone who Matthew did not even give a chance to think
but the excuse is that Matthew is really good!
It was a saturation of the I_t current amplifier. Another sign of that
is too sharp a rise of the edge right after the pre-edge - it is when
the I_t signal drops below the

Sorry about jumping in too quickly. I've had this very thing happen to
me so I recognize the sharp edge rise. Maybe I
