Unreferenced date September 2008 Intrinsicfraud is an intentionally false representation that goes to the heart of what a given lawsuit is about, in other words, whether fraud was used to procure the transaction. If the transaction was fraudulent, it probably does not have the legal status of a contract. Intrinsicfraud is distinguished from extrinsic fraud a k a collateral fraud which is a deceptive means of keeping a person from discovering and or enforcing legal rights. It is possible to have either intrinsic or extrinsic frauds, or both. During a trial , perjury , forgery , and bribery of a witness constitute fraud s that might have been relieved by the court . Such actions will usually lead to a mistrial law mistrial being declared and after any penalties for the involved parties a new trial will take place on the same matter. Two types of intrinsicfraud in contract law are fraud in the inducement and fraud in the factum . Fraud in the factum is a law legal defense, and occurs where A signs a contract, but either does not realize that it is a contract or does not understand the nature of the contract, because of some false information that B gave to A. For example, if John tells his mother that he is taking a college course on handwriting analysis, and for his homework, he needs her to read and sign a pretend deed. If Mom signs the deed believing what he told her, and John tries to enforce the deed, Mom can plead fraud in the factum. Fraud in the inducement is an equity law equitable defense, and occurs when A signs a contract, knowing that it is a contract and at least having a rough idea what the contract is about, but the reason A signed the contract was because of some false information that B gave to A. For example, if John tells his mother to sign a deed giving ... to enforce the deed prior to Mom s death, Mom can plead fraud in the inducement.

Noref date October 2009 In quantum mechanics , the intrinsic Parity physics parity is a phase factor that arises as an eigenvalue of the parity operation a reflection about the origin . To see that the parity s eigenvalues are phase factors, we assume an eigenstate of the parity operation this is realized because the intrinsic parity is a property of a subatomic particle particle species and use the fact that two parity transformations leave the particle in the same state, thus the new wave function can differ by only a phase factor, i.e. math P 2 psi e i phi psi math thus math P psi pm e i phi 2 psi math , since these are the only eigenstates satisfying the above equation. The intrinsic parity s phase is conserved for non weak interactions the product of the intrinsic parities is the same before and after the reaction , since P,H 0, i.e. the Hamiltonian quantum mechanics Hamiltonian is invariant under a parity transformation . The intrinsic parity of a system is the product of the intrinsic parities of the particles, for instance for noninteracting particles we have math P 1 rangle 2 rangle P 1 rangle P 2 rangle math . Since the parity commutes with the Hamiltonian, its eigenvalue does not change with time, therefore the intrinsic parity s phase is a conserved quantity.

An intrinsic semiconductor , also called an undoped semiconductor or i type semiconductor , is a pure semiconductor without any significant dopant species present. The number of charge carrier s is therefore determined by the properties of the material itself instead of the amount of impurities. In intrinsic semiconductors the number of excited electron s and the number of electron hole holes are equal n p. The electrical conductivity of intrinsic semiconductors can be due to crystal defect s or to thermal excitation . In an intrinsic semiconductor the number of electron s in the conduction band is equal to the number of holes in the valence band . An example is HgCdTe Hg sub 0.8 sub Cd sub 0.2 sub Te at room temperature. An indirect band gap intrinsic semiconductor is one where the maximum energy of the valence band occurs at a different k crystal momentum k space wave vector than the minimum energy of the conduction band. Examples include silicon and germanium . A direct band gap intrinsic semiconductor is one where the maximum energy of the valence band occurs at the same k as the minimum energy of the conduction band. Examples include gallium arsenide .

About compiler intrinsic functions X toolkit Intrinsics Refimprove date December 2009 In compiler theory , an intrinsic function is a function available for use in a given computer language language whose implementation is handled specially by the compiler. Typically, it substitutes a sequence of automatically generated instructions for the original function call, similar to an inline function . Unlike an inline function though, the compiler has an intimate knowledge of the intrinsic function and can therefore better integrate it and optimize it for the situation. This is also called builtin function in many languages. Compilers that implement intrinsic functions generally enable them only when the user has requested compiler optimizations optimization , falling back to a default implementation provided by the language runtime environment otherwise. Intrinsic functions are often used to explicitly implement Vectorization parallel computing vectorization and parallel processing parallelization in languages which do not address such constructs. Altivec and OpenMP are examples of API s which use intrinsic functions to declare, respectively, vectorizable and multiprocessor aware operations during compilation. The compiler parses the intrinsic functions and converts them into vector math or multiprocessing object code appropriate for the target platform. Microsoft and Intel s C C compilers as well as GNU Compiler Collection GCC implement intrinsics that map directly to the x86 SIMD instructions MMX instruction set MMX , Streaming SIMD Extensions SSE , SSE2 , SSE3 , SSSE3 , SSE4 .

In geometry , an intrinsic equation of a curve is an equation that defines the curve using a relation between the curve s intrinsic properties, that is, properties that do not depend on the location and possibly the orientation of the curve. Therefore an intrinsic equation defines the shape of the curve without specifying its position relative to an arbitrarily defined coordinate system. The intrinsic quantities used most often are arc length math s math , tangential angle math theta math , curvature math kappa math or Radius of curvature mathematics radius of curvature , and, for 3 dimensional curves, Torsion of a curve torsion math tau math . Specifically The natural equation is the curve given by its curvature and torsion. The Whewell equation is obtained as a relation between arc length and tangential angle. The Ces ro equation is obtained as a relation between arc length and curvature. The equation of a circle including a line for example is given by the equation math kappa s Cte math where math s math is the arc length and math kappa math the curvature. These coordinates greatly simpilfy some physical problem. For elastic rods for example, the potential energy is given by math E int 0 L B kappa 2 s ds math where math B math is the bending modulus math EI math . Moreover, as math kappa s d theta ds math , elasticity of rods can be given a simple variational form. References cite book author R.C.

refimprove date March 2008 Intrinsic finality is the idea that there is a natural good for all beings, and that all beings have a natural tendency to pursue their own good. It is an underlying principle of both teleology and moral objectivism . The concept of intrinsic finality was summarized by Thomas Aquinas ref Thomas Aquinas, Summa contra Gentiles Contra Gentiles IV, xix ref as follows By the form which gives it its specific perfection, everything in nature has an inclination to its own operations and to its own end, which it reaches through these operations. Just as everything is, such also are its operations and its tendency to what is suitable to itself. The idea of intrinsic finality presumes an objective reality that obeys a natural order or natural law in the universe. Things are meant to be and behave a certain way, and naturally tend to act that way. For instance, animals have natural instincts for self preservation, seeking food, and reproduction. They do so because it is their nature to do so. Theologians go further, to argue that they do so because they were created to do so. The existence of such a finality is often challenged, particularly by philosophers ascribing to philosophical naturalism . They argue that it is unreasonable to say that all beings naturally pursue their own benefit, when some beings clearly do not. They point to instances of perfection imperfection , disease , and death as evidence that natural beings do not naturally move toward perfection. But proponents of intrinsic finalilty respond that the very recognition of such imperfection requires an ideal or standard of the perfect end from which the being in question falls short owing to a variety of factors including improper education , sin , or predestination . Intrinsic finality provides the basis for the teleological argument for the existence of God and its modern counterpart, intelligent design . Proponents of teleology argue that Darwinism does not resolve a fundamental defect ... more details
orphan date April 2010 Apoptosis is a programmed form of cell death involving the degradation of cellular constituents by a group of cysteine proteases called caspase s. The caspases can be activated through either the intrinsic mitochondrial mediated or extrinsic death receptor mediated apoptotic pathways. The intrinsic apoptotic pathway is characterized by permeabilisation of the mitochondria and release of cytochrome c into the cytoplasm . Cytochrome c then forms a multi protein complex known as the apoptosome and initiates activation of the caspase cascade through caspase 9. The extrinsic apoptotic pathway is activated by death receptors on the plasma membrane such as tumour necrosis factor receptor 1 TNFR1 and Fas CD95 . As ligand s bind to these receptors, the death inducing signaling complex DISC is formed leading to initiation of the caspase cascade through caspase 8.

Intrinsic safety IS is a protection technique for safe operation of Electronics electronic equipment in explosive atmospheres and under irregular operating conditions. The concept was developed for safe operation of process control instrumentation in hazardous areas, particularly North Sea gas platforms. As a discipline, it is an application of inherent safety in instrumentation. The theory behind intrinsic safety is to ensure that the available electricity electrical and thermal energy in the system is always low enough that Combustion ignition of the hazardous atmosphere cannot occur. This is achieved by ensuring that only low voltages and currents enter the hazardous area, and that all electric supply and signal wires are protected by Zener diode Zener safety barriers. Sometimes an alternative type of barrier known as a galvanic isolation barrier may be used. In normal uses, electrical equipment often creates internal tiny sparks in switches, motor brushes, connectors, and in other places. Such sparks can ignite flammable substances present in air. ref cite web title Working In Explosive Atmospheres url http www.csunitec.com technical WhitePapers CS 20Unitec ATEX Working 20in 20Ex 20Zones.pdf ref A device termed intrinsically safe is designed to not contain any components that produce sparks or which can hold enough energy to produce a spark of sufficient energy to cause an ignition.

High efficacy agonists can produce the maximal response of the receptor system while occupying a relatively low proportion of the receptors in that system. Agonists of lower efficacy are not as efficient at producing a response from the drug bound receptor, by stabilizing the active form of the drug bound receptor. Therefore, they may not be able to produce the same maximal response, even when they occupy the entire receptor population, as the efficiency of transformation of the inactive form of the drug receptor complex to the active drug receptor complex may not be high enough to evoke a maximal response.
