1Doppler cooling — is a mechanism that can be used to trap and cool atoms. The term is sometimes used synonymously with laser cooling, though laser cooling includes other techniques. Contents 1 History 2 Brief Explanation 3 Detailed Explanation …
2Doppler radar — A radar that detects and interprets the Doppler effect (Doppler frequency shift) in terms of the radial velocity of a target. It differentiates between fixed and moving targets by detecting and measuring the apparent change in frequency of the… …
3Stokes drift — For a pure wave motion in fluid dynamics, the Stokes drift velocity is the average velocity when following a specific fluid parcel as it travels with the fluid flow. For instance, a particle floating at the free surface of water waves,… …
4Frequency drift — In electrical engineering, and particularly in telecommunications, frequency drift is an unintended and generally arbitrary offset of an oscillator from its nominal frequency. This can be caused by changes in temperature, which can alter the… …
