  2. Deposition (phase transition) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deposition_(phase_transition)

    Deposition is the phase transition in which gas transforms into solid without passing through the liquid phase. Deposition is a thermodynamic process . The reverse of deposition is sublimation and hence sometimes deposition is called desublimation .

  3. Deposition (aerosol physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deposition_(aerosol_physics)

    In the physics of aerosols, deposition is the process by which aerosol particles collect or deposit themselves on solid surfaces, decreasing the concentration of the particles in the air. It can be divided into two sub-processes: dry and wet deposition. The rate of deposition, or the deposition velocity, is slowest for particles of an ...

  4. Topological insulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topological_insulator

    Topological insulators can be grown using different methods such as metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), [67] physical vapor deposition (PVD), [68] solvothermal synthesis, [69] sonochemical technique [70] and molecular beam epitaxy. Schematic of the components of a MBE system (MBE). [34] MBE has so far been the most common ...

  5. Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport Code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo_N-Particle...

    Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport (MCNP) [2] is a general-purpose, continuous-energy, generalized-geometry, time-dependent, Monte Carlo radiation transport code designed to track many particle types over broad ranges of energies and is developed by Los Alamos National Laboratory.

  6. Soft matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_matter

    The science of soft matter is a subfield of condensed matter physics. Soft materials include liquids , colloids , polymers , foams , gels , granular materials , liquid crystals , flesh , and a number of biomaterials .

  7. Particle deposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_deposition

    Particle deposition is the spontaneous attachment of particles to surfaces. The particles in question are normally colloidal particles , while the surfaces involved may be planar, curved, or may represent particles much larger in size than the depositing ones (e.g., sand grains).

  8. Chemical thermodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_thermodynamics

    Chemical thermodynamics is the study of the interrelation of heat and work with chemical reactions or with physical changes of state within the confines of the laws of thermodynamics.

  9. Bragg peak - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bragg_peak

    The Bragg curve of 5.49 MeV alphas in air has its peak to the right and is skewed to the left, unlike the x-ray beam below.. The Bragg peak is a pronounced peak on the Bragg curve which plots the energy loss of ionizing radiation during its travel through matter.
