  2. Jansky - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jansky

    This range makes the jansky a suitable unit for radio astronomy. Gravitational waves also carry energy, so their flux density can also be expressed in terms of janskys. Typical signals on Earth are expected to be 10 20 Jy or more. [6] However, because of the poor coupling of gravitational waves to matter, such signals are difficult to detect.

  3. Density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density

    The SI unit of kilogram per cubic metre (kg/m 3) and the cgs unit of gram per cubic centimetre (g/cm 3) are probably the most commonly used units for density. One g/cm 3 is equal to 1000 kg/m 3. One cubic centimetre (abbreviation cc) is equal to one millilitre. In industry, other larger or smaller units of mass and or volume are often more ...

  4. Friedmann equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedmann_equations

    The density parameter Ω is defined as the ratio of the actual (or observed) density ρ to the critical density ρ c of the Friedmann universe. The relation between the actual density and the critical density determines the overall geometry of the universe; when they are equal, the geometry of the universe is flat (Euclidean).

  5. List of physical quantities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physical_quantities

    (Mass) Density (or volume density) ρ: Mass per unit volume kg/m 3: L −3 M: intensive Mean lifetime: τ: Average time for a particle of a substance to decay s T: intensive Molar concentration: C: Amount of substance per unit volume mol⋅m −3: L −3 N: intensive Molar energy: J/mol: Amount of energy present in a system per unit amount of ...

  6. Specific volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_volume

    For a substance X with a specific volume of 0.657 cm 3 /g and a substance Y with a specific volume 0.374 cm 3 /g, the density of each substance can be found by taking the inverse of the specific volume; therefore, substance X has a density of 1.522 g/cm 3 and substance Y has a density of 2.673 g/cm 3. With this information, the specific ...

  7. Pulsar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsar

    The longest period pulsar, at 118.2 seconds, as well as one of the only known two white dwarf pulsars, AR Scorpii. [69] The first white dwarf pulsar AE Aquarii. [70] [71] The pulsar with the most stable period, PSR J0437−4715; The first millisecond pulsar with 2 stellar mass companions, PSR J0337+1715; PSR J1841−0500, stopped pulsing for ...

  8. Gravitoelectromagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitoelectromagnetism

    B g is the gravitomagnetic field, with SI unit s −1; B is the magnetic field; ρ g is mass density, with SI unit kg⋅m −3; ρ is charge density; J g is mass current density or mass flux (J g = ρ g v ρ, where v ρ is the velocity of the mass flow), with SI unit kg⋅m −2 ⋅s −1; J is electric current density; G is the gravitational ...

  9. Energy density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_density

    In terms of density, m = ρV, where ρ is the volumetric mass density, V is the volume occupied by the mass. This energy can be released by the processes of nuclear fission (~ 0.1%), nuclear fusion (~ 1%), or the annihilation of some or all of the matter in the volume V by matter– antimatter collisions (100%).
