  2. Lorentz factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorentz_factor

    Definition of the Lorentz factor γ. The Lorentz factor or Lorentz term (also known as the gamma factor [1]) is a dimensionless quantity expressing how much the measurements of time, length, and other physical properties change for an object while it moves. The expression appears in several equations in special relativity, and it arises in ...

  3. Robert Plutchik - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Plutchik

    He suggested eight primary bipolar emotions: joy versus sadness; anger versus fear; trust versus disgust; and surprise versus anticipation. Additionally, his circumplex model makes connections between the idea of an emotion circle and a color wheel. Like colors, primary emotions can be expressed at different intensities and can mix with one ...

  4. Lorenz system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorenz_system

    A sample solution in the Lorenz attractor when ρ = 28, σ = 10, and β = ⁠ 8 / 3 ⁠. The Lorenz system is a system of ordinary differential equations first studied by mathematician and meteorologist Edward Lorenz.

  5. Lorentz transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorentz_transformation

    The Lorentz factor γ retains its definition for a boost in any direction, since it depends only on the magnitude of the relative velocity. The definition β = v/c with magnitude 0 ≤ β < 1 is also used by some authors.

  6. Wheel graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_graph

    A wheel graph with n vertices can also be defined as the 1-skeleton of an (n – 1)-gonal pyramid. Some authors [1] write W n to denote a wheel graph with n vertices (n ≥ 4); other authors [2] instead use W n to denote a wheel graph with n + 1 vertices (n ≥ 3), which is formed by connecting a single vertex to all vertices of a cycle of ...

  7. Covariant formulation of classical electromagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covariant_formulation_of...

    The covariant formulation of classical electromagnetism refers to ways of writing the laws of classical electromagnetism (in particular, Maxwell's equations and the Lorentz force) in a form that is manifestly invariant under Lorentz transformations, in the formalism of special relativity using rectilinear inertial coordinate systems.

  8. Affective science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affective_science

    An increasing interest in emotion can be seen in the behavioral, biological and social sciences. Research over the last two decades suggests that many phenomena, ranging from individual cognitive processing to social and collective behavior, cannot be understood without taking into account affective determinants (i.e. motives, attitudes, moods, and emotions). [1]

  9. Emotion classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emotion_classification

    Emotion classification, the means by which one may distinguish or contrast one emotion from another, is a contested issue in emotion research and in affective science. Researchers have approached the classification of emotions from one of two fundamental viewpoints: [citation needed] that emotions are discrete and fundamentally different constructs
