  2. Jiffy (time) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jiffy_(time)

    In astrophysics and quantum physics a jiffy is, as defined by Edward R. Harrison, [13] the time it takes for light to travel one fermi, which is approximately the size of a nucleon. One fermi is 10 −15 m, so a jiffy is about 3 × 10 −24 s. It has also more informally been defined as "one light-foot", which is equal to approximately one ...

  3. List of open-source software for mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_open-source...

    The primary difference between a computer algebra system and a traditional calculator is the ability to deal with equations symbolically rather than numerically. The precise uses and capabilities of these systems differ greatly from one system to another, yet their purpose remains the same: manipulation of symbolic equations .

    These equations need to be refined such that the notation is defined as has been done for the previous sets of equations. ... University Physics – With Modern ...

  5. Automatic calculation of particle interaction or decay

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_calculation_of...

    It refers to computing tools that help calculating the complex particle interactions as studied in high-energy physics, astroparticle physics and cosmology. The goal of the automation is to handle the full sequence of calculations in an automatic (programmed) way: from the Lagrangian expression describing the physics model up to the cross ...

  6. Unit of time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_of_time

    The Jiffy is the amount of time light takes to travel one femtometre (about the diameter of a nucleon). The Planck time is the time that light takes to travel one Planck length. The TU (for time unit) is a unit of time defined as 1024 μs for use in engineering. The svedberg is a time unit used for sedimentation rates (usually of proteins).

  7. Symbolab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolab

    Symbolab is an answer engine [1] that provides step-by-step solutions to mathematical problems in a range of subjects. [2] It was originally developed by Israeli start-up company EqsQuest Ltd., under whom it was released for public use in 2011.

  8. Generator (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generator_(mathematics)

    In mathematics and physics, the term generator or generating set may refer to any of a number of related concepts. The underlying concept in each case is that of a smaller set of objects, together with a set of operations that can be applied to it, that result in the creation of a larger collection of objects, called the generated set .

    Standard Model of Particle Physics. The diagram shows the elementary particles of the Standard Model (the Higgs boson, the three generations of quarks and leptons, and the gauge bosons), including their names, masses, spins, charges, chiralities, and interactions with the strong, weak and electromagnetic forces.
