  3. Radioanalytical chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioanalytical_chemistry

    They developed chemical separation and radiation measurement techniques on terrestrial radioactive substances. During the twenty years that followed 1897 the concepts of radionuclides was born. [1] Since Curie's time, applications of radioanalytical chemistry have proliferated.

  4. Radiation pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation_pressure

    Solar radiation pressure is a source of orbital perturbations. It significantly affects the orbits and trajectories of small bodies including all spacecraft. Solar radiation pressure affects bodies throughout much of the Solar System. Small bodies are more affected than large ones because of their lower mass relative to their surface area.

  5. Discrete ordinates method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete_Ordinates_Method

    The method of discrete ordinates, or the S n method, is one way to approximately solve the RTE by discretizing both the xyz-domain and the angular variables that specify the direction of radiation. The methods were developed by Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar when he was working on radiative transfer.

  6. Radiation material science - Wikipedia

    This leads to increased vulnerability to normal mechanical failure in terms of creep resistance as well as radiation damaging events such as neutron-induced swelling and radiation-induced segregation of phases. By accounting for radiation damage, reactor materials would be able to withstand longer operating lifetimes.

  7. Sound amplification by stimulated emission of radiation

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_amplification_by...

    A relevant suggested scheme of sound amplification by stimulated emission of radiation using gas bubbles as the active medium was introduced around 1995 [24] The pumping is created by mechanical oscillations of a cylindrical resonator and the phase bunching of bubbles is realized by acoustic radiation forces. A notable fact is that gas bubbles ...

  8. Monitor unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monitor_unit

    A monitor unit (MU) is a measure of machine output from a clinical accelerator for radiation therapy such as a linear accelerator or an orthovoltage unit. Monitor units are measured by monitor chambers, which are ionization chambers that measure the dose delivered by a beam and are built into the treatment head of radiotherapy linear accelerators.

  9. Cavity optomechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavity_optomechanics

    Some first effects of the light on the mechanical resonator can be captured by converting the radiation pressure force into a potential, = (), and adding it to the intrinsic harmonic oscillator potential of the mechanical oscillator, where () is the slope of the radiation pressure force. This combined potential reveals the possibility of static ...
