  2. Nitrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen

    Nitrogen gas is an industrial gas produced by the fractional distillation of liquid air, or by mechanical means using gaseous air (pressurised reverse osmosis membrane or pressure swing adsorption). Nitrogen gas generators using membranes or pressure swing adsorption (PSA) are typically more cost and energy efficient than bulk-delivered ...

  3. Jaynes–Cummings model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaynes–Cummings_model

    Illustration of the Jaynes–Cummings model. An atom in an optical cavity is shown as red dot on the top left. The energy levels of the atom that couple to the field mode within the cavity are shown in the circle on the bottom right. Transfer between the two states causes photon emission (absorption) by the atom into (out of) the cavity mode.

  4. List of chemical elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_elements

    A chemical element, often simply called an element, is a type of atom which has a specific number of protons in its atomic nucleus (i.e., a specific atomic number, or Z). [ 1 ] The definitive visualisation of all 118 elements is the periodic table of the elements , whose history along the principles of the periodic law was one of the founding ...

  5. Atomic clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_clock

    Whereas a hydrogen atom moves at 1,600 m/s at room temperature and a nitrogen atom moves at 510 m/s, a caesium atom moves at a much slower speed of 130 m/s due to its greater mass. [ 65 ] [ 10 ] The hyperfine frequency of caesium (~9.19 GHz) is also higher than other elements such as rubidium (~6.8 GHz) and hydrogen (~1.4 GHz). [ 10 ]

  6. Gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas

    Drifting smoke particles indicate the movement of the surrounding gas.. Gas is one of the four fundamental states of matter.The others are solid, liquid, and plasma. [1] A pure gas may be made up of individual atoms (e.g. a noble gas like neon), elemental molecules made from one type of atom (e.g. oxygen), or compound molecules made from a variety of atoms (e.g. carbon dioxide).

  7. Atomic physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_physics

    The atom is said to have undergone the process of ionization. If the electron absorbs a quantity of energy less than the binding energy, it will be transferred to an excited state. After a certain time, the electron in an excited state will "jump" (undergo a transition) to a lower state.

  8. Atomic diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_diffusion

    Other air molecules (e.g. oxygen, nitrogen) have lower mobilities and thus diffuse more slowly through the balloon wall. There is a concentration gradient in the balloon wall, because the balloon was initially filled with helium, and thus there is plenty of helium on the inside, but there is relatively little helium on the outside (helium is ...

  9. Cottrell atmosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cottrell_atmosphere

    where is the diffusivity of the solute atom in the host material, is the atomic volume, is the velocity of the dislocation, is the diffusion flux density, and is the solute concentration. [5] The existence of the Cottrell atmosphere and the effects of viscous drag have been proven to be important in high temperature deformation at intermediate ...
