Radiation of multicomponent aqueous salt solutions in the millimeter-wave spectral region

Abstract

The low-intensity radiation and radiobrightness contrasts of multicomponent aqueous solutions of alkali metal chlorides have been studied at a frequency of 61.2 GHz. An additive character of changes in radiobrightness contrasts relative to initial binary systems (component ratio, 1: 1) is shown. The concentration dependence for solutions of potassium and lithium chlorides shows that initial different-sign radiation effects are eliminated. The radiation of mixed solutions proves to be close to the radiation of pure water (up to 4 m solutions).
