  2. Lamb waves - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamb_waves

    At these longer wavelengths the attenuation of the wave is less so that flaws can be detected at greater distances. A major challenge and skill in the use of Lamb waves for ultrasonic testing is the generation of specific modes at specific frequencies that will propagate well and give clean return "echoes".

  3. Lamb shift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamb_shift

    In physics, the Lamb shift, named after Willis Lamb, is an anomalous difference in energy between two electron orbitals in a hydrogen atom. The difference was not predicted by theory and it cannot be derived from the Dirac equation , which predicts identical energies.

  4. Rayleigh wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_wave

    The depth of significant displacement in the solid is approximately equal to the acoustic wavelength. Rayleigh waves are distinct from other types of surface or guided acoustic waves such as Love waves or Lamb waves, both being types of guided waves supported by a layer, or longitudinal and shear waves, that travel in the bulk.

  5. Lamb Dicke regime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamb_Dicke_regime

    In ion trapping and atomic physics experiments, the Lamb Dicke regime (or Lamb Dicke limit) is a quantum regime in which the coupling (induced by an external light field) between an ion or atom's internal qubit states and its motional states is sufficiently small so that transitions that change the motional quantum number by more than one are strongly suppressed.

  6. Lambda - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambda

    Lambda indicates the wavelength of any wave, especially in physics, electrical engineering, and mathematics. [6] In evolutionary algorithms, λ indicates the number of offspring that would be generated from μ current population in each generation. The terms μ and λ are originated from Evolution strategy notation.

  7. Electromagnetic spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_spectrum

    The higher energy (shortest wavelength) ranges of UV (called "vacuum UV") are absorbed by nitrogen and, at longer wavelengths, by simple diatomic oxygen in the air. Most of the UV in the mid-range of energy is blocked by the ozone layer, which absorbs strongly in the important 200–315 nm range, the lower energy part of which is too long for ...

  8. Deuterium arc lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deuterium_arc_lamp

    Emission spectrum of an ultraviolet deuterium arc lamp showing characteristic hydrogen Balmer lines (sharp peaks at 486 nm and 656 nm labeled D β and D α from left to right respectively), continuum emission in the ~160-400 nm region and Fulcher band emission between around 560 to 640 nm.

  9. Beer–Lambert law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer–Lambert_law

    The decadic attenuation coefficient at any wavelength λ is, given by = + (). Therefore, measurements at two wavelengths yields two equations in two unknowns and will suffice to determine the amount concentrations c 1 and c 2 as long as the molar attenuation coefficients of the two components, ε 1 and ε 2 are known at both wavelengths.
