  2. Transitive relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transitive_relation

    Generalized to stochastic versions (stochastic transitivity), the study of transitivity finds applications of in decision theory, psychometrics and utility models. [19] A quasitransitive relation is another generalization; [5] it is required to be transitive only on its non-symmetric part. Such relations are used in social choice theory or ...

  3. Laporte rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laporte_rule

    Complementing the Laporte rule, is the spin-selection rule, which forbids transitions that involve changes in spin state. Violations of both the Laporte and spin-selection rules results in particularly low extinction coefficients. Illustrative of this combined effect is the faintness of even concentrated solutions of octahedral Mn(II) and Fe ...

  4. Le Chatelier's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Chatelier's_principle

    Le Chatelier–Braun principle analyzes the qualitative behaviour of a thermodynamic system when a particular one of its externally controlled state variables, say , changes by an amount , the 'driving change', causing a change , the 'response of prime interest', in its conjugate state variable , all other externally controlled state variables remaining constant.

  5. Transitivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transitivity

    Transitivity (grammar), a property regarding whether a lexical item denotes a transitive object; Transitive verb, a verb which takes an object; Transitive case, a grammatical case to mark arguments of a transitive verb

  6. Van 't Hoff equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_'t_Hoff_equation

    The Van 't Hoff equation relates the change in the equilibrium constant, K eq, of a chemical reaction to the change in temperature, T, given the standard enthalpy change, Δ r H ⊖, for the process. The subscript r {\displaystyle r} means "reaction" and the superscript ⊖ {\displaystyle \ominus } means "standard".

  7. Period-doubling bifurcation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Period-doubling_bifurcation

    In dynamical systems theory, a period-doubling bifurcation occurs when a slight change in a system's parameters causes a new periodic trajectory to emerge from an existing periodic trajectory—the new one having double the period of the original.

  8. Transition state theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transition_state_theory

    In chemistry, transition state theory (TST) explains the reaction rates of elementary chemical reactions. The theory assumes a special type of chemical equilibrium (quasi-equilibrium) between reactants and activated transition state complexes. [1] TST is used primarily to understand qualitatively how chemical reactions take place.

  9. Propagator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propagator

    However, since they can be off shell, wherever the diagram contains a closed loop, the energies and momenta of the virtual particles participating in the loop will be partly unconstrained, since a change in a quantity for one particle in the loop can be balanced by an equal and opposite change in another. Therefore, every loop in a Feynman ...
