ballistic function
1Ballistic conduction — is the characteristic of a material, known as a ballistic conductor , which has crystalline properties that allow electrons to flow through the material without collisions. The material must be free of impurities that electrons could collide with …
2Ballistic transport — is the transport of electrons in a medium with negligible electrical resistivity due to scattering. Without scattering, electrons simply obey Newton s second law of motion at non relativistic speeds.In general the resistivity exists because an… …
3Ballistic coefficient — The ballistic coefficient (BC) of a body is a measure of its ability to overcome air resistance in flight. It is inversely proportional to the deceleration mdash;a high number indicates a low deceleration. BC is a function of mass, diameter, and… …
