1Wave–particle duality — Quantum mechanics Uncertainty principle …
2Wave — A wave is a disturbance that propagates through space and time, usually with transference of energy. While a mechanical wave exists in a medium (which on deformation is capable of producing elastic restoring forces), waves of electromagnetic… …
3Fibonacci number — A tiling with squares whose sides are successive Fibonacci numbers in length …
4Scintillation (physics) — Scintillation is a flash of light produced in a transparent material by an ionization event. See scintillator and scintillation counter for practical applications.OverviewThe process of scintillation is one of luminescence whereby light of a… …
5Consequences of the Black Death — The Black Death, the third deadliest[citation needed] pandemic in human history, which peaked in Europe between 1349 and 1351, led to several major social, economic and religious consequences in Europe. Contents 1 Depopulation 1.1 Asia …
6Atomic orbital — The shapes of the first five atomic orbitals: 1s, 2s, 2px, 2py, and 2pz. The colors show the wave function phase. These are graphs of ψ(x,y,z) functions which depend on the coordinates of one electron. To see the elongated shape of ψ(x,y,z)2… …
7Bohm interpretation — The Bohm interpretation of quantum mechanics, sometimes called Bohmian mechanics, the ontological interpretation, or the causal interpretation, is an interpretation postulated by David Bohm in 1952 as an extension of Louis de Broglie s pilot wave …
8Event symmetry — The term Event symmetry describes invariance principles that have been used in some discrete approaches to quantum gravity where the diffeomorphism invariance of general relativity can be extended to a covariance under any permutation of… …
9Numerical sign problem — The numerical sign problem refers to the difficulty of numerically evaluating the integral of a highly oscillatory function of a large number of variables. Numerical methods fail because of the near cancellation of the positive and negative… …
10computer — computerlike, adj. /keuhm pyooh teuhr/, n. 1. Also called processor. an electronic device designed to accept data, perform prescribed mathematical and logical operations at high speed, and display the results of these operations. Cf. analog… …
