  2. Modulation index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulation_index

    The modulation index (or modulation depth) of a modulation scheme describes by how much the modulated variable of the carrier signal varies around its unmodulated level. It is defined differently in each modulation scheme. Amplitude modulation index; Frequency modulation index; Phase modulation index

  3. Magnetochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetochemistry

    The magnitude of the paramagnetism is expressed as an effective magnetic moment, μ eff. For first-row transition metals the magnitude of μ eff is, to a first approximation, a simple function of the number of unpaired electrons, the spin-only formula. In general, spin–orbit coupling causes μ eff to deviate from the

  4. Refractive index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractive_index

    A gradient-index lens with a parabolic variation of refractive index (n) with radial distance (x). The lens focuses light in the same way as a conventional lens. If the refractive index of a medium is not constant but varies gradually with the position, the material is known as a gradient-index (GRIN) medium and is described by gradient index ...

  5. Green chemistry metrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_chemistry_metrics

    The formula also fails to address the level of toxicity associated with a process. Until all toxicology data is available for all chemicals and a term dealing with these levels of “benign” reagents is written into the formula, the effective mass efficiency is not the best metric for chemistry.

  6. Effective nuclear charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_nuclear_charge

    The effective atomic number Z eff, (sometimes referred to as the effective nuclear charge) of an electron in a multi-electron atom is the number of protons that this electron effectively 'sees' due to screening by inner-shell electrons. It is a measure of the electrostatic interaction between the negatively charged electrons and positively ...

  7. Exchange interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchange_interaction

    In chemistry and physics, the exchange interaction is a quantum mechanical constraint on the states of indistinguishable particles.While sometimes called an exchange force, or, in the case of fermions, Pauli repulsion, its consequences cannot always be predicted based on classical ideas of force. [1]

    The refractive index n of the gas can then be expressed in terms of the molar refractivity A as: n ≈ 1 + 3 A p R T {\displaystyle n\approx {\sqrt {1+{\frac {3Ap}{RT}}}}} where p is the pressure of the gas, R is the universal gas constant , and T is the (absolute) temperature, which together determine the number density N .

  9. Bulk modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_modulus

    Illustration of uniform compression. The bulk modulus (or or ) of a substance is a measure of the resistance of a substance to bulk compression.It is defined as the ratio of the infinitesimal pressure increase to the resulting relative decrease of the volume.
