The song was chosen internally by broadcaster RTL9 T l Luxembourg RTL . Like Gall s winner Poup e de cire, poup e de son , Ce soir je t attendais was an extremely contemporary song, very much in tune with current trends in European pop music. Many noticed a strong similarity, particularly in the musical arrangement, between Ce soir je t attendais and the Tom Jones singer Tom Jones hit It s Not Unusual . However the song failed to live up to expectations in the contest, finishing in a relatively lowly position which came as a surprise to most observers, particularly as Torr had given a strong performance. At Eurovision On the night of the final Torr performed fourth in the running order, following Belgium and preceding Yugoslavia . Voting was by each national jury awarding 5 3 1 to its top 3 songs, and at the close Ce soir je t attendais had picked up only 7 points 5 from Sweden and 1 each from Austria and France , placing Luxembourg joint 10th with Germany and Finland of the 18 entries The Luxembourgian jury awarded its 5 points to contest winners Austria. ref http www.esc history.com details.asp?key 170 ESC History Luxembourg 1966 ref See also Luxembourg in the Eurovision Song Contest Eurovision Song Contest 1966 References reflist Luxembourg in Eurovision Eurovision Song Contest 1966 Category Countries in the Eurovision Song Contest 1966 Category Luxembourg in the Eurovision Song Contest ... more details
Unreferenced date December 2009 Orphan date December 2009 A rotary compression pump works in cycles. Over each cycle a volume is created in contact with the cavity where pressure is to be lowered. By random motion, molecules from the vacuum pass into the volume created by the pump. This volume is then cut off from the cavity and compressed in contact with a one way valve. If the volume is compressed enough some of the molecules will pass through the valve. The maximum efficiency of a rotary compression pump is the ratio between the volume in contact with the vacuum and the smallest contracted volume in contact with the valve. If the ratio is 1 1000 and the pump is exhausting to atmospheric pressure, the highest achievable vacuum is 1 1000 of atmospheric pressure. This corresponds to 0.76 Torr or 101.3 Pascal pressure Pa . This limitation makes rotary compression pumps very hard to construct if lower pressures than about 1 Torr is to be achieved. The simplicity of the process makes the rotary compression pump cheap and it is widely used as a low vacuum pump or a fore pump to a diffusion pump .
