Abstract: A nuclear magnetic resonance probe head comprising at least two coil/resonator configurations A1 and A2, wherein at least one of the coil/resonator configurations A1 has two saddle-shaped coils S1 and S2 (1, 2; 21; 41, 42; 53), wherein each coil (1, 2; 21; 41, 42; 53) has a window (9) about which N windings (3, 4; 26, 28, 30) are disposed which are connected in series, wherein N?2, wherein the coil/resonator configurations A1 and A2 are aligned perpendicularly to each other, and wherein the coil/resonator configurations A1 and A2 have different resonance frequencies is characterized in that each coil S1 and S2 (1, 2; 21; 41, 42; 53) is formed mirror-symmetrically relative to a central plane (5) of the respective coil (1, 2; 21; 41, 42; 53), which is perpendicular to the window (9) of the respective coil, and wherein the central planes (5) of the coils S1 and S2 are identical to minimize the electromagnetic coupling between the two coil/resonator configurations A1 and A2 at the resonance frequency of A2.

Abstract: Archery and firearm sight products and processes are disclosed. In an exemplary embodiment an apparatus may comprise a sight ring and a shaft. The sight ring may comprise a proximal end, a distal end, and a track. The track may comprise a major axis disposed substantially parallel with a vertical axis of the sight ring. The shaft may comprise a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and a body disposed between the first and second ends of the shaft. The first end of the shaft may be removably coupled with the sight ring and may be adapted to be displaced along the track of the sight ring.

Abstract: A method for determining sales tax in an automated purchasing system includes the steps of populating data entries in a master transaction record for one or more commodity items. Exemplary populated data entries include material group, cost center code and delivery address. Data corresponding to cost centers are mapped to tax categories representative of abridged functional use classifications. The tax category, material group, and physical location information determined either from the delivery address or from the cost center code are provided from the automated purchasing system to a supplemental software interface. Such data availability is enabled by various combination of user exits, data tables, and importation from temporary memory associated with the automated purchasing system. A tax rate (e.g.

Abstract: An automated purchasing method for buyers using a high volume database and a high volume software program that is compatible with SAP® business management software having an SAP material master database includes creating a new record upon having received a request for purchase of a new item, determining whether the new item is a high volume item, determining whether the new item has a matching entry in a high volume database, and either automatically or manually updating a purchasing info record and source list entry for the item. A requisition and purchase order for the new item may then be sent to a vendor. Optimized prices may be negotiated from the vendor based on documented records of the total items purchased from various respective manufacturers and vendors. Updates or discounts then applicable to the given purchase order are returned and updated in the high volume system such that those discounts and pricing updates are available for subsequent requests and purchases via the high volume program.
