101phosphagen — Energy rich guanidinium or amidine phosphate, serving as an energy store in muscle and brain; e.g., phosphocreatine in mammals, phosphoarginine in invertebrates. Other phosphagens include phosphoagmatine, phosphoglycocyamine, and… …
102Cost of capital — The rate of return a utility must offer to obtain additional funds. The cost of capital varies with the leverage ratio, the effective income tax rate, conditions in the bond and stock markets, growth rate of the utility, its dividend strategy,… …
103Intangible Transition Charge — The amounts on all customer bills, collected by the electric utility to recover transition bond expenses …
104Molecular orbital — See also: Molecular orbital theory In chemistry, a molecular orbital (or MO) is a mathematical function describing the wave like behavior of an electron in a molecule. This function can be used to calculate chemical and physical properties such… …
105isotope — isotopic /uy seuh top ik/, adj. isotopically, adv. /uy seuh tohp /, n. Chem. any of two or more forms of a chemical element, having the same number of protons in the nucleus, or the same atomic number, but having different numbers of neutrons in… …
106Carrier scattering — Defect types include atom vacancies, adatoms, steps, and kinks which occur most frequently at surfaces due to finite material size causing crystal discontinuity. What all types of defects have in common, whether they be surface or bulk, is that… …
107metabolism — /meuh tab euh liz euhm/, n. 1. Biol., Physiol. the sum of the physical and chemical processes in an organism by which its material substance is produced, maintained, and destroyed, and by which energy is made available. Cf. anabolism, catabolism …
108Melting-point depression — This article deals with melting/freezing point depression due to very small particle size. For depression due to the mixture of another compound, see freezing point depression. Melting point depression is a term referring to the phenomenon of… …
109Hyperconjugation — In organic chemistry, hyperconjugation is the interaction of the electrons in a sigma bond (usually C–H or C–C) with an adjacent empty (or partially filled) non bonding p orbital or antibonding π orbital or filled π orbital, to give an extended… …
110Tight binding — Electronic structure methods Tight binding Nearly free electron model Hartree–Fock method Modern valence bond Generalized valence bond Møller–Plesset perturbat …
