An ALIS system PDP apparatus in which a reduction in the variation in luminance due to ringing has been reduced is disclosed. In one embodiment, the target detection platform determines tentative location and velocity of the signal emitter, and the signal collection platforms are configured to perform TDOA andor FDOA analysis of the collected signal data corresponding to a signal of the signal emitter. The container positioner assembly may include an assist system which facilitates biased movement of the container relative to the apparatus. Data from mammals such as humans and dogs, and pharmacological maneuvers using both cardiac and non-cardiac therapeutic agents, may be used with this multi-parameter statistical system and method. A cooling loop in each cooling chamber increases condensation.
