33Physical Sciences — ▪ 2009 Introduction Scientists discovered a new family of superconducting materials and obtained unique images of individual hydrogen atoms and of a multiple exoplanet system. Europe completed the Large Hadron Collider, and China and India took… …
34Nobel Prizes — ▪ 2009 Introduction Prize for Peace The 2008 Nobel Prize for Peace was awarded to Martti Ahtisaari, former president (1994–2000) of Finland, for his work over more than 30 years in settling international disputes, many involving ethnic,… …
35Mössbauer spectroscopy — A Mössbauer absorption spectrum of 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy is a spectroscopic technique based on the Mössbauer effect. This effect, discovered by Rudolf Mössbauer in 1957, consists in the recoil free, resonant absorption and emission of gamma …
36Mathematics and Physical Sciences — ▪ 2003 Introduction Mathematics Mathematics in 2002 was marked by two discoveries in number theory. The first may have practical implications; the second satisfied a 150 year old curiosity. Computer scientist Manindra Agrawal of the… …
37chemical compound — Introduction any substance composed of identical molecules consisting of atoms (atom) of two or more chemical elements (chemical element). All the matter in the universe is composed of the atoms of more than 100 different chemical elements …
38analysis — /euh nal euh sis/, n., pl. analyses / seez /. 1. the separating of any material or abstract entity into its constituent elements (opposed to synthesis). 2. this process as a method of studying the nature of something or of determining its… …
39Rotational spectroscopy — Part of the rotational vibrational spectrum of carbon monoxide (CO) gas (from FTIR), showing the presence of P and R branches. Frequency is on the x axis, and absorbance on the y axis. Rotational spectroscopy or microwave spectroscopy studies the …
40Magic angle spinning — Magic angle spinning: The sample (blue) is rotating with high frequency inside the main magnetic field (B0). The axis of rotation is tilted by the magic angle θm with respect to the direction of B0. In nuclear magnetic resonance, magic angle… …
