61Magnet — This article is about objects and devices that produce magnetic fields. For a description of magnetic materials, see magnetism. For other uses, see Magnet (disambiguation) …
62Coefficient of thermal expansion — When the temperature of a substance changes, the energy that is stored in the intermolecular bonds between atoms changes. When the stored energy increases, so does the length of the molecular bonds. As a result, solids typically expand in… …
63Michelson–Morley experiment — Box plots based on data from the Michelson–Morley experiment The Michelson–Morley experiment was performed in 1887 by Albert Michelson and Edward Morley at what is now Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. Its results are generally… …
64Crystal optics — is the branch of optics that describes the behaviour of light in anisotropic media, that is, media (such as crystals) in which light behaves differently depending on which direction the light is propagating. The index of refraction depends on… …
65Magnetic susceptibility — In electromagnetism, the magnetic susceptibility χm (latin: susceptibilis “receptiveness”) is a dimensionless proportionality constant that indicates the degree of magnetization of a material in response to an applied magnetic field. A related… …
66Photodynamic therapy — (PDT), matured as a feasible medical technology in the 1980s at several institutions throughout the world, is a third level Clarifyme|date=September 2008 treatment for cancer involving three key components: a photosensitizer, light, and tissue… …
67Dynamic nuclear polarisation — Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP)[1] [2] results from transferring spin polarization from electrons to nuclei, thereby aligning the nuclear spins to the extent that electron spins are aligned. Note that the alignment of electron spins at a given …
68Crystal field theory — (CFT) is a model that describes the electronic structure of transition metal compounds, all of which can be considered coordination complexes. CFT successfully accounts for some magnetic properties, colours, hydration enthalpies, and spinel… …
69Cosmology — The Hubble Ultra Deep Field. Every speck of light in this image is an entire galaxy. This is just a small region of a Universe which could contain as many as 200 billion galaxies. Cosmology is the discipline that deals with the nature of the… …
70Electron paramagnetic resonance — (EPR) or electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy is a technique for studying chemical species that have one or more unpaired electrons, such as organic and inorganic free radicals or inorganic complexes possessing a transition metal ion. The… …
