  2. Proton pack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton_pack

    A replica of the ghost trap used in the original film. The proton pack, designed and built by Dr. Egon Spengler, is a man-portable cyclotron system (and indeed Dr. Peter Venkman refers to the proton packs in one scene as "unlicensed nuclear accelerators"), [3] that is used to create a charged particle beam—composed of protons—that is fired by the particle thrower (also referred to as the ...

  3. Roblox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roblox

    Roblox is an online game platform and game creation system built around user-generated content and games, [1] [2] officially referred to as "experiences". [3] Games can be created by any user through the platform's game engine, Roblox Studio, [4] and then shared to and played by other players. [1]

  4. Video games and Linux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_games_and_Linux

    Linux-based operating systems can be used for playing video games.Because few games natively support the Linux kernel, various software has been made to run Windows games, software, and programs, such as Wine, Cedega, DXVK, and Proton, and managers such as Lutris and PlayOnLinux.

  5. Particle-beam weapon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle-beam_weapon

    A particle-beam weapon uses a high-energy beam of atomic or subatomic particles to damage the target by disrupting its atomic and/or molecular structure. A particle-beam weapon is a type of space-based directed-energy weapon, which directs focused energy toward a target using atomic scale particles.

  6. Matter creation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matter_creation

    To create an electron-positron pair, the total energy of the photons, in the rest frame, must be at least 2m e c 2 = 2 × 0.511 MeV = 1.022 MeV (m e is the mass of one electron and c is the speed of light in vacuum), an energy value that corresponds to soft gamma ray photons.

  7. Pair production - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pair_production

    Pair production often refers specifically to a photon creating an electron–positron pair near a nucleus. As energy must be conserved, for pair production to occur, the incoming energy of the photon must be above a threshold of at least the total rest mass energy of the two particles created.

  8. Triple-alpha process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple-alpha_process

    Comparison of the energy output (ε) of protonproton (PP), CNO and Triple-α fusion processes at different temperatures (T). The dashed line shows the combined energy generation of the PP and CNO processes within a star. Helium accumulates in the cores of stars as a result of the protonproton chain reaction and the carbon–nitrogen ...

  9. Proton (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton_(software)

    Proton is a compatibility layer that allows Windows software (primarily video games) to run on Linux-based operating systems. [1] Proton is developed by Valve in cooperation with developers from CodeWeavers. [2] It is a collection of software and libraries combined with a patched version of Wine to improve performance and compatibility with ...
