111Einstein–Cartan theory — in theoretical physics extends general relativity to correctly handle spin angular momentum. As the master theory of classical physics general relativity has one known flaw: it cannot describe spin orbit coupling , i.e., exchange of intrinsic… …
112garden and landscape design — Introduction the development and decorative planting of gardens, yards, grounds, parks, and other types of areas. Gardening and landscape design is used to enhance the settings for buildings and public areas and in recreational areas and… …
113Degenerate distribution — Degenerate Probability mass function PMF for k0=0. The horizontal axis is the index i of ki. (Note that the function is only defined at integer indices. The connecting lines do not indicate continuity.) Cumulative distribution function …

116Invalid proof — In mathematics, there are a variety of spurious proofs of obvious contradictions. Although the proofs are flawed, the errors, usually by design, are comparatively subtle. These fallacies are normally regarded as mere curiosities, but can be used… …
117Quartz crystal microbalance — A quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) measures a mass per unit area by measuring the change in frequency of a quartz crystal resonator. The resonance is disturbed by the addition or removal of a small mass due to oxide growth/decay or film… …
118Word metric — In group theory, a word metric on a group G is a way to measure distance between any two elements of G . As the name suggests, the word metric is a metric on G , assigning to any two elements g , h of G a distance d(g,h) that measures how… …
119Atmospheric models — Static atmospheric models describe how the ideal gas properties (namely: pressure, temperature, density, and molecular weight) of an atmosphere change, primarily as a function of altitude. For example, the US Standard Atmosphere is essentially a… …
120Proper velocity — η.In flat spacetime, proper velocity is the ratio between distance traveled relative to a reference map frame (used to define simultaneity) and proper time τ elapsed on the clocks of the traveling object. It equals the object s momentum p divided …
