  2. Bubble chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bubble_chart

    A bubble chart is a type of chart that displays three dimensions of data. Each entity with its triplet ( v 1 , v 2 , v 3 ) of associated data is plotted as a disk that expresses two of the v i values through the disk's xy location and the third through its size.

  3. Zero-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-dimensional_space

    However, a locally compact Hausdorff space is zero-dimensional if and only if it is totally disconnected. (See (Arhangel'skii & Tkachenko 2008, Proposition 3.1.7, p.136) for the non-trivial direction.) Zero-dimensional Polish spaces are a particularly convenient setting for descriptive set theory.

  4. Random phase approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_phase_approximation

    Bubble diagrams, which result in the RPA when summed up. Solid lines stand for interacting or non-interacting Green's functions, dashed lines for two-particle interactions. The random phase approximation (RPA) is an approximation method in condensed matter physics and nuclear physics.

  5. Bubble (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bubble_(physics)

    Air bubbles rising from a scuba diver in water A soap bubble floating in the air. A bubble is a globule of a gas substance in a liquid. In the opposite case, a globule of a liquid in a gas, is called a drop. [1] Due to the Marangoni effect, bubbles may remain intact when they reach the surface of the immersive substance.

  6. False vacuum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_vacuum

    The geometry of space-time within the bubble is that of anti-de Sitter space, a space much like conventional de Sitter space except that its group of symmetries is O(3, 2) rather than O(4, 1). Although this space-time is free of singularities, it is unstable under small perturbations, and inevitably suffers gravitational collapse of the same ...

  7. Zero-point energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-point_energy

    The Standard Model hypothesises a field called the Higgs field (symbol: ϕ), which has the unusual property of a non-zero amplitude in its ground state (zero-point) energy after renormalization; i.e., a non-zero vacuum expectation value. It can have this effect because of its unusual "Mexican hat" shaped potential whose lowest "point" is not at ...

  8. Weaire–Phelan structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weaire–Phelan_structure

    In geometry, the Weaire–Phelan structure is a three-dimensional structure representing an idealised foam of equal-sized bubbles, with two different shapes. In 1993, Denis Weaire and Robert Phelan found that this structure was a better solution of the Kelvin problem of tiling space by equal volume cells of minimum surface area than the previous best-known solution, the Kelvin structure.

  9. Minkowski space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minkowski_space

    Hermann Minkowski (1864–1909) found that the theory of special relativity could be best understood as a four-dimensional space, since known as the Minkowski spacetime.. In physics, Minkowski space (or Minkowski spacetime) (/ m ɪ ŋ ˈ k ɔː f s k i,-ˈ k ɒ f-/ [1]) is the main mathematical description of spacetime in the absence of gravitation.
