A "standard" parameterization of the CKM matrix uses three Euler angles ( θ 12, θ 23, θ 13 ) and one CP-violating phase ( δ 13 ). [8] θ 12 is the Cabibbo angle. This is the convention advocated by the Particle Data Group. Couplings between quark generations j and k vanish if θ jk = 0 .
Decimal degrees (DD) is a notation for expressing latitude and longitude geographic coordinates as decimal fractions of a degree.DD are used in many geographic information systems (GIS), web mapping applications such as OpenStreetMap, and GPS devices.
In addition, in a physical application it might be reasonable or natural to replace a mathematical model, which is given in the form of the differential equation for ˙, with the corresponding averaged system ˙, in order to use the averaged system to make a prediction and then test the prediction against the results of a physical experiment.
Vertical line of equation x = a Horizontal line of equation y = b. Each solution (x, y) of a linear equation + + = may be viewed as the Cartesian coordinates of a point in the Euclidean plane. With this interpretation, all solutions of the equation form a line, provided that a and b are not both zero. Conversely, every line is the set of all ...
A similar but more complicated method works for cubic equations, which have three resolvents and a quadratic equation (the "resolving polynomial") relating and , which one can solve by the quadratic equation, and similarly for a quartic equation (degree 4), whose resolving polynomial is a cubic, which can in turn be solved.

Moreover, assume that after reduction to standard form D 0 becomes the equivalent operator = ″ + on (0, ∞) where q has a finite limit at ∞. Thus D is limit point at ∞. At 0, D may be either limit circle or limit point. In either case there is an eigenfunction Φ 0 with DΦ 0 = 0 and Φ 0 square integrable near 0.
In astrophysics, the Lane–Emden equation is a dimensionless form of Poisson's equation for the gravitational potential of a Newtonian self-gravitating, spherically symmetric, polytropic fluid. It is named after astrophysicists Jonathan Homer Lane and Robert Emden . [ 1 ]
The orbital period (also revolution period) is the amount of time a given astronomical object takes to complete one orbit around another object. In astronomy, it usually applies to planets or asteroids orbiting the Sun, moons orbiting planets, exoplanets orbiting other stars, or binary stars.
