  2. Quantum spacetime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_spacetime

    When posited as quantum spacetime, it is hard to obtain physical predictions and one reason for this is that if is a tensor, then by dimensional analysis, it should have dimensions of length, and if this length is speculated to be the Planck length, then the effects would be harder to ever detect than for other models.

  3. Euclidean planes in three-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_planes_in_three...

    This familiar equation for a plane is called the general form of the equation of the plane or just the plane equation. [6] Thus for example a regression equation of the form y = d + ax + cz (with b = −1) establishes a best-fit plane in three-dimensional space when there are two explanatory variables.

  4. Scaling dimension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scaling_dimension

    Scaling dimensions of operators in such theories may not be read off from a Lagrangian; they are also not necessarily (half)integer. For example, in the scale (and conformally) invariant theory describing the critical points of the two-dimensional Ising model there is an operator whose dimension is 1/8. [2] [1]

  5. Atomic spacing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_spacing

    (Top) Diamond crystal structure, depicting an atomic spacing of 0.154 nm.(Bottom) Graphite crystal structure, depicting an atomic spacing of 0.142 nm. Atomic spacing refers to the distance between the nuclei of atoms in a material.

  6. Quantum mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_mechanics

    Quantum mechanics is a fundamental theory that describes the behavior of nature at and below the scale of atoms. [2]: 1.1 It is the foundation of all quantum physics, which includes quantum chemistry, quantum field theory, quantum technology, and quantum information science.

  7. Atomic orbital - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_orbital

    Four of the five d orbitals for n = 3 look similar, each with four pear-shaped lobes, each lobe tangent at right angles to two others, and the centers of all four lying in one plane. Three of these planes are the xy-, xz-, and yz-planes—the lobes are between the pairs of primary axes—and the fourth has the center along the x and y axes ...

  8. Multiple time dimensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_time_dimensions

    Like other complex number variables, complex time is two-dimensional, comprising one real time dimension and one imaginary time dimension, changing time from a real number line into a complex plane. [3] Introducing it into Minkowski spacetime allows a generalization of Kaluza–Klein theory. [7]

  9. Orders of magnitude (length) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(length)

    Factor () Multiple Value Item 0 0 0 Singularity: 10 −35: 1 Planck length: 0.0000162 qm Planck length; typical scale of hypothetical loop quantum gravity or size of a hypothetical string and of branes; according to string theory, lengths smaller than this do not make any physical sense. [1]
