    List of letters used in mathematics and science; Glossary of mathematical symbols; List of mathematical uses of Latin letters; Greek letters used in mathematics, science, and engineering; Physical constant; Physical quantity; International System of Units; ISO 31

  3. List of physical constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physical_constants

    The constants listed here are known values of physical constants expressed in SI units; that is, physical quantities that are generally believed to be universal in nature and thus are independent of the unit system in which they are measured. Many of these are redundant, in the sense that they obey a known relationship with other physical ...

  4. List of physical quantities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physical_quantities

    The table usually lists only one name and symbol that is most commonly used. The final column lists some special properties that some of the quantities have, such as their scaling behavior (i.e. whether the quantity is intensive or extensive ), their transformation properties (i.e. whether the quantity is a scalar , vector , matrix or tensor ...

  5. Plasma parameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_parameters

    All quantities are in Gaussian units except energy and temperature which are in electronvolts.For the sake of simplicity, a single ionic species is assumed. The ion mass is expressed in units of the proton mass, = / and the ion charge in units of the elementary charge, = / (in the case of a fully ionized atom, equals to the respective atomic number).

  6. Specific activity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_activity

    [1] [2] It is usually given in units of becquerel per kilogram (Bq/kg), but another commonly used unit of specific activity is the curie per gram (Ci/g). In the context of radioactivity , activity or total activity (symbol A ) is a physical quantity defined as the number of radioactive transformations per second that occur in a particular ...

  7. SI base unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_base_unit

    The SI system after 1983, but before the 2019 revision: Dependence of base unit definitions on other base units (for example, the metre is defined as the distance travelled by light in a specific fraction of a second), with the constants of nature and artefacts used to define them (such as the mass of the IPK for the kilogram).

  8. RC time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_time_constant

    These values are derived from the mathematical constant e, where % and %. The following formulae use it, assuming a constant voltage applied across the capacitor and resistor in series, to determine the voltage across the capacitor against time:

  9. Luminosity (scattering theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminosity_(scattering_theory)

    The luminosity and integrated luminosity are useful values to characterize the performance of a particle accelerator. In particular, all collider experiments aim to maximize their integrated luminosities, as the higher the integrated luminosity, the more data is available to analyze. [1]
