  2. Reaction rate constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_rate_constant

    where A and B are reactants C is a product a, b, and c are stoichiometric coefficients,. the reaction rate is often found to have the form: = [] [] Here ⁠ ⁠ is the reaction rate constant that depends on temperature, and [A] and [B] are the molar concentrations of substances A and B in moles per unit volume of solution, assuming the reaction is taking place throughout the volume of the ...

  3. Nuclear cross section - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_cross_section

    Nuclear cross sections are used in determining the nuclear reaction rate, and are governed by the reaction rate equation for a particular set of particles (usually viewed as a "beam and target" thought experiment where one particle or nucleus is the "target", which is typically at rest, and the other is treated as a "beam", which is a projectile with a given energy).

  4. Cross section (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_section_(physics)

    In physics, the cross section is a measure of the probability that a specific process will take place in a collision of two particles. For example, the Rutherford cross-section is a measure of probability that an alpha particle will be deflected by a given angle during an interaction with an atomic nucleus.

  5. Absorption cross section - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absorption_cross_section

    In physics, absorption cross-section is a measure of the probability of an absorption process. More generally, the term cross-section is used in physics to quantify the probability of a certain particle-particle interaction, e.g., scattering , electromagnetic absorption , etc. (Note that light in this context is described as consisting of ...

  6. Mass flow rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_flow_rate

    The area required to calculate the mass flow rate is real or imaginary, flat or curved, either as a cross-sectional area or a surface, e.g. for substances passing through a filter or a membrane, the real surface is the (generally curved) surface area of the filter, macroscopically - ignoring the area spanned by the holes in the filter/membrane ...

  7. Coefficient of coincidence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_coincidence

    If the individual recombination rates (between A and B; and between B and C) are known, then the c.o.c. between the regions AB and BC can be calculated from the rate of double recombination. In genetics, the coefficient of coincidence (c.o.c.) is a measure of interference in the formation of chromosomal crossovers during meiosis .

  8. Mean free path - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_free_path

    where ℓ is the mean free path, n is the number of target particles per unit volume, and σ is the effective cross-sectional area for collision. The area of the slab is L 2, and its volume is L 2 dx. The typical number of stopping atoms in the slab is the concentration n times the volume, i.e., n L 2 dx. The probability that a beam particle ...

  9. Shear rate - Wikipedia
