  2. Magneto-optical trap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magneto-optical_trap

    The MOT cloud is loaded from a background of thermal vapour, or from an atomic beam, usually slowed down to the capture velocity using a Zeeman slower. However, the trapping potential in a magneto-optical trap is small in comparison to thermal energies of atoms and most collisions between trapped atoms and the background gas supply enough ...

  3. Free molecular flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_molecular_flow

    Gas flow can be grouped in four regimes: For Kn≤0.001, flow is continuous, and the Navier–Stokes equations are applicable, from 0.001<Kn<0.1, slip flow occurs, from 0.1≤Kn<10, transitional flow occurs and for Kn≥10, free molecular flow occurs. [6] In free molecular flow, the pressure of the remaining gas can be considered as effectively ...

  4. Fluorine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorine

    In compounds, fluorine almost exclusively assumes an oxidation state of −1. Fluorine in F 2 is defined to have oxidation state 0. The unstable species F − 2 and F − 3, which decompose at around 40 K, have intermediate oxidation states; [100] F + 4 and a few related species are predicted to be stable. [101]

    Henri Moissan's 1892 record of fluorine gas color, viewed end-on in a 5‑m tube. Air (1) is on the left, fluorine (2) is in the middle, chlorine (3) is on the right. Fluorine forms diatomic molecules (F 2) that are gaseous at room temperature with a density about 1.3 times that of air.

  6. Maxwell–Boltzmann statistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell–Boltzmann_statistics

    In other words, the configuration of particle A in state 1 and particle B in state 2 is different from the case in which particle B is in state 1 and particle A is in state 2. This assumption leads to the proper (Boltzmann) statistics of particles in the energy states, but yields non-physical results for the entropy, as embodied in the Gibbs ...

  7. Fermi gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermi_gas

    The two particles of the same energy have spin 1 ⁄ 2 (spin up) or − 1 ⁄ 2 (spin down), leading to two states for each energy level. In the configuration for which the total energy is lowest (the ground state), all the energy levels up to n = N/2 are occupied and all the higher levels are empty.

  8. Effusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effusion

    Effusion from an equilibrated container into outside vacuum can be calculated based on kinetic theory. [2] The number of atomic or molecular collisions with a wall of a container per unit area per unit time (impingement rate) is given by: =. assuming mean free path is much greater than pinhole diameter and the gas can be treated as an ideal gas.

  9. Molecular orbital diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_orbital_diagram

    In agreement with this description the photoelectron spectrum for water shows a sharp peak for the nonbonding 1b 1 MO (12.6 eV) and three broad peaks for the 3a 1 MO (14.7 eV), 1b 2 MO (18.5 eV) and the 2a 1 MO (32.2 eV). [29] The 1b 1 MO is a lone pair, while the 3a 1, 1b 2 and 2a 1 MO's can be localized to give two O−H bonds and an in-plane ...
