Refimprove date June 2011 Asteroid capture can happen when an asteroid approaches a large planetary body . Typically asteroids that approach close enough to a planet are thrown out into space or impact the body. In rarer instances, the asteroid is captured in orbit around the planet ref http www.earthsky.org faq asteroids accretion ref . This is possible with any planetary body given the right conditions. Detailed explanation Asteroid capture happens when an asteroid has enough velocity to keep missing the planet it is falling towards but not enough velocity to escape orbit, in other words, when it reaches a stable orbit around it. Asteroids have natural properties that may lend themselves to be captured. The properties of an asteroid that are most significant to this process are its mass and relative velocity to the planet in question. The mass of the planet is also a key variable, as is the trajectory of the asteroid. An asteroid with too much velocity will pass by the planet with a hyperbolic orbit , shooting it out into space. Asteroids that do not have enough velocity will fall into the planet in an impact event . Any trajectory which has a lower relative velocity compared to the escape velocity which changes with distance will result in either capture or impact. Asteroid capture by Earth The earth moon system creates a particularly unstable situation whereby the orbit of the asteroid is destabilized. However, with the right orbital stabilization techniques, it may be possible to keep an asteroid in orbit above the earth. Effecting capture Spontaneous capture relates to a method whereby an asteroid s velocity is not changed and it is captured by the planet. fact date April 2012 Aerocapture relates to a method of slowing down an object, which could theoretically be an asteroid ... surrounding causing a man made capture scenario are many.

After the call is placed, the system notifies a client of the name, phone number and address of the person calling. The system was designed as a device for real estate agents and allows one to legally bypass do not call laws. Sample service Real estate agents for example might display their 800 call capture phone number on a signrider small, sometimes 12 30 sign that sits on top of the For Sale sign in a house owner s yard , with a call to action like Free Recorded Information Call 24 hours . When someone drives by, notices the sign, writes the phone number down and calls on his cell phone or land line, they are greeted by the real estate agent s personal greeting, directed to dial in the 4 digit extension for the home they are interested in. Then, they listen to a 45 60 second audio tour of the home. At the end of the message, the caller can either leave a voice mail, transfer directly to the agent, request an automatic fax of specs for the home, enter another extension to listen about another home, or simply hang up.

refimprove date April 2012 In telecommunication s, the capture effect , or FM capture effect , is a phenomenon associated with Frequency modulation FM reception in which only the stronger of two signals at, or near, the same frequency will be demodulation demodulated . The capture effect is defined as the complete suppression of the weaker signal at the receiver radio receiver limiter if it has one where the weaker signal is not Amplifier amplified , but attenuate d. When both signals are nearly equal in strength, or are fading independently, the receiver may switch from one to the other and exhibit picket fencing . The capture effect can occur at the signal limiter, or in the demodulation stage, for circuits that do not require a signal limiter. Citation needed date January 2010 Some types of Detector radio radio receiver circuits have a stronger capture effect than others. The measurement of how well a receiver can reject a second signal on the same frequency is called the capture ratio for a specific receiver. It is measured as the lowest ratio of the power of two signals that will result in the suppression of the smaller signal. Amplitude modulation, or AM broadcasting AM radio , Transmission telecommunications transmission is not subject to this effect. This is one reason that the Airband aviation industry, and others, have chosen to use AM for communications rather than FM, allowing multiple signals to be broadcasting broadcast on the same channel. Similar phenomena to the capture effect are described in AM when offset carriers of different strengths are present in the passband of a receiver. For example, the aviation glideslope vertical guidance clearance beam is sometimes described as a capture effect system, even though it operates using AM signals.

Introduction Clean and capture is a technology that allows remediation and cleaning specialists to clean surfaces in any direction while not producing cross contamination in a nearby water supply or surfaces. The technology was developed in Anaheim, California at PowerPlus Cleaning Solutions for decontamination and cleaning of any given surface. White sheets are currently under development and will be available soon. The technology is contained within specially designed cleaning tools that are used during decontamination efforts. They range from hand held four inch tools that resemble vacuum cleaner nozzles, ride able mobile mounted solutions, and even portable machines that can decontaminate soil as it is passed through the Clean and Capture process. It works by creating a sealed environment within a cleaning tool s head wherein chemicals, water, or solutions are injected into the surface at a controlled heat level. As the agitated water breaks up particles and reaches deep into the pores of a surface, suction pulls the contaminates and dirt particles out of the surface. Other times special chemicals are needed to deal with specific contaminates such as radiation, oil, etc. In these cases, the tools allow for these special chemicals to be used without harming the tool and actually attracts the contaminates out of impossible crevices, making them accessible to the agitated solution and again is caught up by the powerful suction and then captured by the tool where it can be stored in a remote location and processed. File CaC illus.jpg Definition Clean and capture is the process by which Pressure high pressure Agitation action agitation and Suction immediate extraction occurs within a closed tool head.

A deleterious mutation anywhere in the genome will adversely affect condition, and thereby adversely affect a condition dependent sexually selected trait. Genic capture therefore resolves the lek paradox by proposing that recurrent deleterious mutation maintains additive genetic variance in fitness by incorporating the entire mutation load of an individual. Thus any condition dependent trait captures the overall genetic variance in condition. Rowe and Houle argued that genic capture ensures that Handicap principle good genes will become a central feature of the evolution of any sexually selected trait. Condition The key quantity for genic capture is vaguely defined as condition. The hypothesis only defines condition as a quantity that correlates tightly with overall fitness biology fitness , such that directional selection will always increase average condition over time.
