  2. Kilobyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilobyte

    The internationally recommended unit symbol for the kilobyte is kB. [ 1 ] However, in some areas of information technology , particularly in reference to random-access memory capacity, kilobyte instead typically refers to 1024 (2 10 ) bytes.

  3. Absorption rate constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absorption_rate_constant

    The absorption rate constant K a is a value used in pharmacokinetics to describe the rate at which a drug enters into the system. It is expressed in units of time −1. [1] The K a is related to the absorption half-life (t 1/2a) per the following equation: K a = ln(2) / t 1/2a. [1] K a values can typically only be found in research articles. [2]

  4. Binary prefix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_prefix

    Since two blocks comprised 1024 bytes, the capacity was quoted "360 KB", with the binary sense of "K". On the other hand, the quoted capacity of "1.44 MB" of the High Density ("HD") version was again a hybrid decimal and binary notation, since it meant 1440 pairs of 512-byte sectors, or 1440 × 2 10 = 1 474 560 bytes.

  5. Binding constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binding_constant

    The binding constant, or affinity constant/association constant, is a special case of the equilibrium constant K, [1] and is the inverse of the dissociation constant. [2] It is associated with the binding and unbinding reaction of receptor (R) and ligand (L) molecules, which is formalized as: R + L ⇌ RL

  6. Gran plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gran_plot

    The Gran plot is based on the Nernst equation which can be written as = + ⁡ {+} where E is a measured electrode potential, E 0 is a standard electrode potential, s is the slope, ideally equal to RT/nF, and {H +} is the activity of the hydrogen ion.

  7. kT (energy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KT_(energy)

    kT (also written as k B T) is the product of the Boltzmann constant, k (or k B), and the temperature, T.This product is used in physics as a scale factor for energy values in molecular-scale systems (sometimes it is used as a unit of energy), as the rates and frequencies of many processes and phenomena depend not on their energy alone, but on the ratio of that energy and kT, that is, on ⁠ E ...

  8. Data-rate units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data-rate_units

    The ISQ symbols for the bit and byte are bit and B, respectively.In the context of data-rate units, one byte consists of 8 bits, and is synonymous with the unit octet.The abbreviation bps is often used to mean bit/s, so that when a 1 Mbps connection is advertised, it usually means that the maximum achievable bandwidth is 1 Mbit/s (one million bits per second), which is 0.125 MB/s (megabyte per ...

  9. K-distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-distribution

    K-distribution arises as the consequence of a statistical or probabilistic model used in synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) imagery. The K-distribution is formed by compounding two separate probability distributions, one representing the radar cross-section, and the other representing speckle that is a characteristic of coherent imaging. It is also ...
