  2. Birks' law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birks'_Law

    The relation is: = +. where L is the light yield, S is the scintillation efficiency, dE/dx is the specific energy loss of the particle per path length, k is the probability of quenching, [1] and B is a constant of proportionality linking the local density of ionized molecules at a point along the particle's path to the specific energy loss; [1] "Since k and B appear only as a product, they act ...

  3. Yield (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_(chemistry)

    The theoretical molar yield is 2.0 mol (the molar amount of the limiting compound, acetic acid). The molar yield of the product is calculated from its weight (132 g ÷ 88 g/mol = 1.5 mol). The % yield is calculated from the actual molar yield and the theoretical molar yield (1.5 mol ÷ 2.0 mol × 100% = 75%). [citation needed]

  4. Limiting reagent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limiting_reagent

    In this method the chemical equation is used to calculate the amount of one product which can be formed from each reactant in the amount present. The limiting reactant is the one which can form the smallest amount of the product considered. This method can be extended to any number of reactants more easily than the first method.

  5. Conversion (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_(chemistry)

    Conversion and its related terms yield and selectivity are important terms in chemical reaction engineering.They are described as ratios of how much of a reactant has reacted (X — conversion, normally between zero and one), how much of a desired product was formed (Y — yield, normally also between zero and one) and how much desired product was formed in ratio to the undesired product(s) (S ...

  6. Quantum yield - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_yield

    Thus, the fluorescence quantum yield is affected if the rate of any non-radiative pathway changes. The quantum yield can be close to unity if the non-radiative decay rate is much smaller than the rate of radiative decay, that is k f > k nr. [2] Fluorescence quantum yields are measured by comparison to a standard of known quantum yield. [2]

  7. Specific storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_storage

    Specific yield, also known as the drainable porosity, is a ratio, less than or equal to the effective porosity, indicating the volumetric fraction of the bulk aquifer volume that a given aquifer will yield when all the water is allowed to drain out of it under the forces of gravity:

  8. How To Calculate Dividend Yield and Why It Matters - AOL

    Dividends are distributions from companies to shareholders. Although some companies pay dividends in shares of their stock, traditional dividends are distributed in cash, often quarterly. For...

  9. Active matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_matter

    Notable analytical approaches include hydrodynamics, [12] kinetic theory, and non-equilibrium statistical physics. Numerical studies mainly involve self-propelled-particles models, [ 13 ] [ 14 ] making use of agent-based models such as molecular dynamics algorithms or lattice-gas models , [ 15 ] as well as computational studies of hydrodynamic ...
