  2. Radioanalytical chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioanalytical_chemistry

    They developed chemical separation and radiation measurement techniques on terrestrial radioactive substances. During the twenty years that followed 1897 the concepts of radionuclides was born. [1] Since Curie's time, applications of radioanalytical chemistry have proliferated.

  3. Discrete ordinates method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete_Ordinates_Method

    The method of discrete ordinates, or the S n method, is one way to approximately solve the RTE by discretizing both the xyz-domain and the angular variables that specify the direction of radiation. The methods were developed by Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar when he was working on radiative transfer.

  4. Bremsstrahlung - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bremsstrahlung

    Bremsstrahlung produced by a high-energy electron deflected in the electric field of an atomic nucleus. In particle physics, bremsstrahlung / ˈ b r ɛ m ʃ t r ɑː l ə ŋ / [1] (German pronunciation: [ˈbʁɛms.ʃtʁaːlʊŋ] ⓘ; from German bremsen ' to brake ' and Strahlung ' radiation ') is electromagnetic radiation produced by the deceleration of a charged particle when deflected by ...

  5. Acoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustics

    Structural acoustics is the study of motions and interactions of mechanical systems with their environments and the methods of their measurement, analysis, and control. There are several sub-disciplines found within this regime: Modal Analysis; Material characterization; Structural health monitoring; Acoustic Metamaterials; Friction Acoustics

  6. Characterization (materials science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characterization...

    [1] [2] The scope of the term often differs; some definitions limit the term's use to techniques which study the microscopic structure and properties of materials, [2] while others use the term to refer to any materials analysis process including macroscopic techniques such as mechanical testing, thermal analysis and density calculation. [3]

  7. Industrial radiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_radiography

    Making a radiograph. Industrial radiography is a modality of non-destructive testing that uses ionizing radiation to inspect materials and components with the objective of locating and quantifying defects and degradation in material properties that would lead to the failure of engineering structures.

  8. Radiosity (radiometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiosity_(radiometry)

    In such a case, the radiosity does not depend on the angle of incidence of reflecting radiation and this information is lost on a diffuse surface. In reality, however, the radiosity will have a specular component from the reflected radiation. So, the heat transfer between two surfaces relies on both the view factor and the angle of reflected ...

  9. Cavity optomechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavity_optomechanics

    Some first effects of the light on the mechanical resonator can be captured by converting the radiation pressure force into a potential, = (), and adding it to the intrinsic harmonic oscillator potential of the mechanical oscillator, where () is the slope of the radiation pressure force. This combined potential reveals the possibility of static ...
