  2. Amalgam (dentistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amalgam_(dentistry)

    The dissolved tin migrates to the outside of the silver-copper particles to form Cu 6 Sn 5, the eta prime (η′) phase of the copper-tin system. [12] Thus, copper reacts with sufficient tin to prevent the formation of γ2. [12] The amalgamation reaction may be simplified as follows (notice the absence of γ 2 phase):

  3. Two-photon physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-photon_physics

    Two-photon physics, also called gammagamma physics, is a branch of particle physics that describes the interactions between two photons. Normally, beams of light pass through each other unperturbed. Inside an optical material, and if the intensity of the beams is high enough, the beams may affect each other through a variety of non-linear ...

  4. Amalgam (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amalgam_(chemistry)

    Zinc amalgam finds use in organic synthesis (e.g., for the Clemmensen reduction). [3] It is the reducing agent in the Jones reductor, used in analytical chemistry.Formerly the zinc plates of dry batteries were amalgamated with a small amount of mercury to prevent deterioration in storage.

  5. Non-random two-liquid model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-random_two-liquid_model

    VLE of the mixture of chloroform and methanol plus NRTL fit and extrapolation to different pressures. The non-random two-liquid model [1] (abbreviated NRTL model) is an activity coefficient model introduced by Renon and Prausnitz in 1968 that correlates the activity coefficients of a compound with its mole fractions in the liquid phase concerned.

  6. Perturbed angular correlation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perturbed_angular_correlation

    The 7/2+ excited state transitions to the 5/2+ intermediate state by emitting a 171 keV γ-quantum. The intermediate state has a lifetime of 84.5 ns and is the sensitive state for the PAC. This state in turn decays into the 1/2+ ground state by emitting a γ-quantum with 245 keV.

  7. High Energy Stereoscopic System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../High_Energy_Stereoscopic_System

    High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) is a system of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs) for the investigation of cosmic gamma rays in the photon energy range of 0.03 to 100 TeV. The acronym was chosen in honour of Victor Hess , who was the first to observe cosmic rays .

  8. Gibbs–Duhem equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbs–Duhem_equation

    If multiple phases of matter are present, the chemical potentials across a phase boundary are equal. [6] Combining expressions for the Gibbs–Duhem equation in each phase and assuming systematic equilibrium (i.e. that the temperature and pressure is constant throughout the system), we recover the Gibbs' phase rule.

  9. Two-state quantum system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-state_quantum_system

    A well known example of a two-state system is the spin of a spin-1/2 particle such as an electron, whose spin can have values +ħ/2 or −ħ/2, where ħ is the reduced Planck constant. The two-state system cannot be used as a description of absorption or decay, because such processes require coupling to a continuum.
