  2. Quiver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quiver

    Three quivers. A quiver is a container for holding arrows or bolts. It can be carried on an archer's body, the bow, or the ground, depending on the type of shooting and the archer's personal preference. Quivers were traditionally made of leather, wood, furs, and other natural materials, but are now often made of metal or plastic.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quiver_diagram

    In theoretical physics, a quiver diagram is a graph representing the matter content of a gauge theory that describes D-branes on orbifolds. Quiver diagrams may also be used to described N = 2 {\displaystyle {\mathcal {N}}=2} supersymmetric gauge theories in four dimensions.

  5. Octane rating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octane_rating

    In 1927, Graham Edgar [84] devised the method of using iso-octane and n-heptane as reference chemicals, in order to rate the knock resistance of a fuel with respect to this isomer of octane, [85] thus the name "octane rating". By definition, the isomers iso-octane and n-heptane have an octane rating of 100 and 0, respectively. [86]

  6. Octane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octane

    N-octane is the octane isomer that has the longest carbon skeleton. Unlike its constitutional isomers, it has a very low knock resistance. The octane isomer, iso-octane, is used as one of the standards for octane ratings. It has a rating of 100 by definition. The octane isomer 2,3,3-Trimethylpentane has an octane rating exceeding 100.

    The above definition is based in set theory; the category-theoretic definition generalizes this into a functor from the free quiver to the category of sets.. The free quiver (also called the walking quiver, Kronecker quiver, 2-Kronecker quiver or Kronecker category) Q is a category with two objects, and four morphisms: The objects are V and E.
