71Space elevator — A space elevator for Earth would consist of a cable anchored to the Earth s equator, reaching into space. By attaching a counterweight at the end (or by further extending the cable upward for the same purpose), the center of mass is kept well… …
72Ionizing radiation — consists of highly energetic particles or waves that can detach (ionize) at least one electron from an atom or molecule. Ionizing ability depends on the energy of the impinging individual particles or waves, and not on their number. A large flood …
73Astrophysics — is the branch of astronomy that deals with the physics of the universe, including the physical properties (luminosity, density, temperature, and chemical composition) of celestial objects such as stars, galaxies, and the interstellar medium, as… …
74Diamond Light Source — Logo Diamond Light Source is the UK s national synchrotron science facility located in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom. Its purpose is to produce intense beams of light whose special characteristics are useful in many areas of scientific research. In …
75Advanced Photon Source — The Advanced Photon Source (APS) at Argonne National Laboratory is a national synchrotron radiation light source research facility funded by the United States Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of Basic Energy Sciences. Argonne… …
76Free electron laser — A free electron laser, or FEL, is a laser that shares the same optical properties as conventional lasers such as emitting a beam consisting of coherent electromagnetic radiation which can reach high power, but which uses some very different… …
77Scalar field theory (pseudoscience) — For the quantum mechanical scalar field theory which is a field theory of spinless particles, see Scalar field theory Scalar field theory (SFT) is a set of theories in a model which posits that there is a basic mechanism that produces the… …
