  2. ΔT (timekeeping) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ΔT_(timekeeping)

    TT-UT1 2000+ ΔT vs. time from 1657 to 2022 [1] [2] In precise timekeeping, ΔT (Delta T, delta-T, deltaT, or DT) is a measure of the cumulative effect of the departure of the Earth's rotation period from the fixed-length day of International Atomic Time (86,400 seconds).

  3. G/G/1 queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G/G/1_queue

    Kingman's formula gives an approximation for the mean waiting time in a G/G/1 queue. [6] Lindley's integral equation is a relationship satisfied by the stationary waiting time distribution which can be solved using the Wiener–Hopf method .

  4. G/M/1 queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G/M/1_queue

    It is an extension of an M/M/1 queue, where this renewal process must specifically be a Poisson process (so that interarrival times have exponential distribution). Models of this type can be solved by considering one of two M/G/1 queue dual systems, one proposed by Ramaswami and one by Bright.

    Also, the velocities in the directions perpendicular to the frame changes are affected, as shown above. This is due to time dilation, as encapsulated in the dt/dt′ transformation. The V′ y and V′ z equations were both derived by dividing the appropriate space differential (e.g. dy′ or dz′) by the time differential.

  6. Pulsar timing array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsar_timing_array

    The pulsar acts as the reference clock at one end of the arm sending out regular signals which are monitored by an observer on Earth. The effect of a passing long-wavelength GW would be to perturb the galactic spacetime and cause a small change in the observed time of arrival of the pulses. [6]: 207–209

  7. Rational arrival process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_arrival_process

    In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, a rational arrival process (RAP) is a mathematical model for the time between job arrivals to a system. It extends the concept of a Markov arrival process , allowing for dependent matrix-exponential distributed inter-arrival times.

  8. Markovian arrival process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markovian_arrival_process

    In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, a Markovian arrival process (MAP or MArP [1]) is a mathematical model for the time between job arrivals to a system. The simplest such process is a Poisson process where the time between each arrival is exponentially distributed. [2] [3]

  9. Inelastic collision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inelastic_collision

    The change in kinetic energy is hence: = = + | | where μ is the reduced mass and u rel is the relative velocity of the bodies before collision. With time reversed we have the situation of two objects pushed away from each other, e.g. shooting a projectile , or a rocket applying thrust (compare the derivation of the Tsiolkovsky rocket equation ).
