Abstract

A new approach to the analysis of aqueous solutions has been developed, which makes it possible to study simultaneously their dielectric, quasi-optical, and radio-brightness parameters in the centimeter and millimeter spectral regions. An interesting property is found in the range of low second-component concentrations: the intrinsic emission in the millimeter range from some solutions is either stronger or weaker than that from pure water. Radio-brightness changes are associated with the presence of two comparable contributions determined by the ratio of ionic and dipole dielectric losses. This effect is considered as applied to simple aqueous systems and more complex biological objects.
