  2. List of thread standards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_thread_standards

    A screw thread is an inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder or cone in the form of a helix, with the former being called a straight thread and the latter called a tapered thread. More screw threads are produced each year than any other machine element. [1] Threads are generally produced according to one of the many standards of thread systems.

  3. X-ray crystallography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_crystallography

    A powder X-ray diffractometer in motion. X-ray crystallography is the experimental science of determining the atomic and molecular structure of a crystal, in which the crystalline structure causes a beam of incident X-rays to diffract in specific directions.

  4. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_photoelectron...

    XPS physics - the photoelectric effect.. Because the energy of an X-ray with particular wavelength is known (for Al K α X-rays, E photon = 1486.7 eV), and because the emitted electrons' kinetic energies are measured, the electron binding energy of each of the emitted electrons can be determined by using the photoelectric effect equation,

    However, they are seen in emission in the spectra of Wolf-Rayet stars, as these stars have little or no hydrogen. In 1896, Pickering published observations of previously unknown lines in the spectra of the star Zeta Puppis. [3] Pickering attributed the observation to a new form of hydrogen with half-integer transition levels.

  6. Balmer series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balmer_series

    In stellar spectra, the H-epsilon line (transition 7→2, 397.007 nm) is often mixed in with another absorption line caused by ionized calcium known as "H" (the original designation given by Joseph von Fraunhofer). H-epsilon is separated by 0.16 nm from Ca II H at 396.847 nm, and cannot be resolved in low-resolution spectra.

  7. List of unsolved problems in physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unsolved_problems...

    The following is a list of notable unsolved problems grouped into broad areas of physics. [1] Some of the major unsolved problems in physics are theoretical, meaning that existing theories seem incapable of explaining a certain observed phenomenon or experimental result.

  8. Moseley's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moseley's_law

    A list of experimentally found and theoretically calculated X-ray transition energies is available at NIST. [8] Nowadays, theoretical energies are computed with much greater accuracy than Moseley's law allows, using modern computational models such as the Dirac–Fock method (the Hartree–Fock method with the relativistic effects accounted for).

  9. Threading (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threading_(manufacturing)

    In manufacturing, threading is the process of creating a screw thread.More screw threads are produced each year than any other machine element. [1] There are many methods of generating threads, including subtractive methods (many kinds of thread cutting and grinding, as detailed below); deformative or transformative methods (rolling and forming; molding and casting); additive methods (such as ...
