  2. Cold Iron (poem) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_Iron_(poem)

    How Iron - Cold Iron - can be master of men all." He took the Wine and blessed it. He blessed and brake the Bread With His own Hands He served Them, and presently He said: " See! These Hands they pierced with nails, outside My city wall, Show Iron - Cold Iron - to be master of men all. " " Wounds are for the desperate, blows are for the strong.

  3. Heavy metal element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_metal_(elements)

    Being denser than the lithophiles, hence sinking lower into the crust at the time of its solidification, the chalcophiles tend to be less abundant than the lithophiles. [122] In contrast, gold is a siderophile, or iron-loving element. It does not readily form compounds with either oxygen or sulfur. [123]

    In contrast, gold is a siderophile, or iron-loving element. It does not readily form compounds with either oxygen or sulfur. [ 104 ] At the time of the Earth's formation , and as the most noble (inert) of metals, gold sank into the core due to its tendency to form high-density metallic alloys.

  5. Iron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron

    Iron(II) complexes are less stable than iron(III) complexes but the preference for O-donor ligands is less marked, so that for example [Fe(NH 3) 6] 2+ is known while [Fe(NH 3) 6] 3+ is not. They have a tendency to be oxidized to iron(III) but this can be moderated by low pH and the specific ligands used. [72]

  6. Unified field theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_field_theory

    In physics, a unified field theory (UFT) is a type of field theory that allows all fundamental forces and elementary particles to be written in terms of a single type of field. According to modern discoveries in physics, forces are not transmitted directly between interacting objects but instead are described and interpreted by intermediary ...

  7. Mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass

    In physics, mass is not the same as weight, even though mass is often determined by measuring the object's weight using a spring scale, rather than balance scale comparing it directly with known masses. An object on the Moon would weigh less than it does on Earth because of the lower gravity, but it would still have the same mass.

  8. r-process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-process

    In nuclear astrophysics, the rapid neutron-capture process, also known as the r-process, is a set of nuclear reactions that is responsible for the creation of approximately half of the atomic nuclei heavier than iron, the "heavy elements", with the other half produced by the p-process and s-process.

  9. Mass–energy equivalence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass–energy_equivalence

    Mass near the M87* black hole is converted into a very energetic astrophysical jet, stretching five thousand light years. In physics, mass–energy equivalence is the relationship between mass and energy in a system's rest frame, where the two quantities differ only by a multiplicative constant and the units of measurement.
