  2. Ultra low expansion glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra_low_expansion_glass

    Ultra low expansion glass has an coefficient of thermal expansion of about 10 −8 /K at 5–35 °C. [2] It has a thermal conductivity of 1.31 W/(m·°C), thermal diffusion of 0.0079 cm 2 /s, a mean specific heat of 767 J/(kg·°C), a strain point of 890 °C [1634 °F], and an estimated softening point of 1490 °C [2714 °F], an annealing point ...

  3. Gibbs–Thomson equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbs–Thomson_equation

    The technique is closely related to using gas adsorption to measure pore sizes, but uses the Gibbs–Thomson equation rather than the Kelvin equation.They are both particular cases of the Gibbs Equations of Josiah Willard Gibbs: the Kelvin equation is the constant temperature case, and the Gibbs–Thomson equation is the constant pressure case. [1]

  4. Thomson scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomson_scattering

    Thomson scattering is a model for the effect of electromagnetic fields on electrons when the field energy is much less than the rest mass of the electron .In the model the electric field of the incident wave accelerates the charged particle, causing it, in turn, to emit radiation at the same frequency as the incident wave, and thus the wave is scattered.

  5. Klein–Nishina formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klein–Nishina_formula

    The Klein–Nishina formula was derived in 1928 by Oskar Klein and Yoshio Nishina, and was one of the first results obtained from the study of quantum electrodynamics. Consideration of relativistic and quantum mechanical effects allowed development of an accurate equation for the scattering of radiation from a target electron.

  6. Yield (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    The theoretical molar yield is 2.0 mol (the molar amount of the limiting compound, acetic acid). The molar yield of the product is calculated from its weight (132 g ÷ 88 g/mol = 1.5 mol). The % yield is calculated from the actual molar yield and the theoretical molar yield (1.5 mol ÷ 2.0 mol × 100% = 75%). [citation needed]

  7. Thomson problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomson_problem

    The Thomson problem also plays a role in the study of other physical models including multi-electron bubbles and the surface ordering of liquid metal drops confined in Paul traps. The generalized Thomson problem arises, for example, in determining arrangements of protein subunits that comprise the shells of spherical viruses. The "particles" in ...

  8. Milne-Thomson method for finding a holomorphic function

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milne-Thomson_method_for...

    In mathematics, the Milne-Thomson method is a method for finding a holomorphic function whose real or imaginary part is given. [1] It is named after Louis Melville Milne-Thomson . Introduction

  9. Yield surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_surface

    The formula reduces to the Tresca criterion if =. Figure 5 shows Mohr–Coulomb yield surface in the three-dimensional space of principal stresses. It is a conical prism and determines the inclination angle of conical surface. Figure 6 shows Mohr–Coulomb yield surface in two-dimensional stress space.
