  2. Cooling curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooling_curve

    A cooling curve is a line graph that represents the change of phase of matter, typically from a gas to a solid or a liquid to a solid. The independent variable (X-axis) is time and the dependent variable (Y-axis) is temperature. [1] Below is an example of a cooling curve used in castings.

  3. Thermodynamic diagrams - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_diagrams

    The main feature of thermodynamic diagrams is the equivalence between the area in the diagram and energy. When air changes pressure and temperature during a process and prescribes a closed curve within the diagram the area enclosed by this curve is proportional to the energy which has been gained or released by the air.

  4. Sources and sinks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sources_and_sinks

    From left to right: a field with a source, a field with a sink, a field without either. In the physical sciences, engineering and mathematics, sources and sinks is an analogy used to describe properties of vector fields. It generalizes the idea of fluid sources and sinks (like the faucet and drain of a bathtub) across different scientific ...

  6. Periodic graph (crystallography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_graph...

    In crystallography, a periodic graph or crystal net is a three-dimensional periodic graph, i.e., a three-dimensional Euclidean graph whose vertices or nodes are points in three-dimensional Euclidean space, and whose edges (or bonds or spacers) are line segments connecting pairs of vertices, periodic in three linearly independent axial directions.

  7. Line chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_chart

    Line chart showing the population of the town of Pushkin, Saint Petersburg from 1800 to 2010, measured at various intervals. A line chart or line graph, also known as curve chart, [1] is a type of chart that displays information as a series of data points called 'markers' connected by straight line segments. [2]

  8. Atomic emission spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_emission_spectroscopy

    The sample may be excited by various methods. Atomic Emission Spectroscopy allows us to measure interactions between electromagnetic radiation and physical atoms and molecules. This interaction is measured in the form of electromagnetic waves representing the changes in energy between atomic energy levels.

  9. Scalar field dark matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalar_field_dark_matter

    Pie chart showing the fractions of energy in the universe contributed by different sources. Ordinary matter is divided into luminous matter (the stars and luminous gases and 0.005% radiation) and nonluminous matter (intergalactic gas and about 0.1% neutrinos and 0.04% supermassive black holes). Ordinary matter is uncommon.
