    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunstone

    Sunstone is a microcline or oligoclase feldspar, which when viewed from certain directions exhibits a spangled appearance. It has been found in Southern Norway , Sweden , various United States localities and on some beaches along the midcoast of South Australia.

  3. Study circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Study_circle

    A study circle is a small group of people who meet multiple times to discuss an issue. Study circles may be formed to discuss anything from politics to religion to hobbies with a minimum of 7 people to a maximum of 15. These study circles are formed by a study circle organiser, and are led by a study circle leader. Study circle doesn't have a ...

  4. Electrical muscle stimulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_muscle_stimulation

    The use of EMS has been cited by sports scientists [2] as a complementary technique for sports training, and published research is available on the results obtained. [3] In the United States, EMS devices are regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). [4] A number of reviews have looked at the devices. [5] [6]

  5. Physical therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_therapy

    Physical therapy addresses the illnesses or injuries that limit a person's abilities to move and perform functional activities in their daily lives. [3] PTs use an individual's history and physical examination to arrive at a diagnosis and establish a management plan and, when necessary, incorporate the results of laboratory and imaging studies like X-rays, CT-scan, or MRI findings.

  6. Malfatti circles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malfatti_circles

    The difference in area for an equilateral triangle is small, just over 1%, [2] but as Howard Eves pointed out, for an isosceles triangle with a very sharp apex, the optimal circles (stacked one atop each other above the base of the triangle) have nearly twice the area of the Malfatti circles. [3] In fact, the Malfatti circles are never optimal.

  7. Manual therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_therapy

    Irvin Korr, J. S. Denslow and colleagues did the original body of research on manual therapy. [2] Korr described it as the "Application of an accurately determined and specifically directed manual force to the body, in order to improve mobility in areas that are restricted; in joints, in connective tissues or in skeletal muscles."

  8. Circular uniform distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_uniform_distribution

    A 10,000 point Monte Carlo simulation of the distribution of the sample mean of a circular uniform distribution for N = 3 Probability densities (¯) for small values of . Densities for N > 3 {\displaystyle N>3} are normalised to the maximum density, those for N = 1 {\displaystyle N=1} and 2 {\displaystyle 2} are scaled to aid visibility.

  9. Inversive geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inversive_geometry

    In geometry, inversive geometry is the study of inversion, a transformation of the Euclidean plane that maps circles or lines to other circles or lines and that preserves the angles between crossing curves. Many difficult problems in geometry become much more tractable when an inversion is applied.
