  2. Delta potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_potential

    Source: [1] The potential splits the space in two parts (x < 0 and x > 0).In each of these parts the potential is zero, and the Schrödinger equation reduces to =; this is a linear differential equation with constant coefficients, whose solutions are linear combinations of e ikx and e −ikx, where the wave number k is related to the energy by =.

  3. Dielectric loss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_loss

    The loss tangent is defined by the angle between the capacitor's impedance vector and the negative reactive axis. When representing the electrical circuit parameters as vectors in a complex plane, known as phasors , a capacitor's loss tangent is equal to the tangent of the angle between the capacitor's impedance vector and the negative reactive ...

  6. Wave function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_function

    Square integrable complex valued functions on the interval [0, 2π]. The set {e int /2π, n ∈ Z} is a Hilbert space basis, i.e. a maximal orthonormal set. The Fourier transform takes functions in the above space to elements of l 2 (Z), the space of square summable functions Z → C. The latter space is a Hilbert space and the Fourier ...

  7. Relativistic wave equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relativistic_wave_equations

    Throughout, the standard conventions of tensor index notation and Feynman slash notation are used, including Greek indices which take the values 1, 2, 3 for the spatial components and 0 for the timelike component of the indexed quantities. The wave functions are denoted ψ, and ∂ μ are the components of the four-gradient operator.

  8. Cnoidal wave - Wikipedia

    which is in conservation form, and is an invariant after integration over the interval of periodicity—the wavelength for a cnoidal wave. The potential energy is not an invariant of the BBM equation, but ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ ρg [η 2 + ⁠ 1 / 6 ⁠ h 2 (∂ x η) 2] is. [36] First the variance of the surface elevation in a cnoidal wave is computed.

  9. Rectangular potential barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectangular_potential_barrier

    In quantum mechanics, the rectangular (or, at times, square) potential barrier is a standard one-dimensional problem that demonstrates the phenomena of wave-mechanical tunneling (also called "quantum tunneling") and wave-mechanical reflection.
