  2. PSR J0002+6216 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSR_J0002+6216

    PSR J0002+6216, also dubbed the Cannonball Pulsar, is a pulsar discovered by the Einstein@Home project in 2017. [2] It is one of the fastest moving pulsars known, and has moved 53 ly (5.0 × 10 14 km; 3.1 × 10 14 mi) away from the location of its formation supernova, where the remaining supernova nebula, CTB 1 (Abell 85 [3]), is.

  3. Eddy (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_(fluid_dynamics)

    A vortex street around a cylinder. This can occur around cylinders and spheres, for any fluid, cylinder size and fluid speed, provided that the flow has a Reynolds number in the range ~40 to ~1000. [1] In fluid dynamics, an eddy is the swirling of a fluid and the reverse current created when the fluid is in a turbulent flow regime. [2]

  4. PSR J0952–0607 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSR_J0952–0607

    PSR J0952–0607 is a massive millisecond pulsar in a binary system, located between 3,200–5,700 light-years (970–1,740 pc) from Earth in the constellation Sextans. [6] It holds the record for being the most massive neutron star known as of 2022, with a mass 2.35 ± 0.17 times that of the Sun—potentially close to the Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkoff mass upper limit for neutron stars.

  6. Table of explosive detonation velocities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_explosive...

    The detonation velocity values presented here are typically for the highest practical density which maximizes achievable detonation velocity. [ 1 ] The velocity of detonation is an important indicator for overall energy and power of detonation, and in particular for the brisance or shattering effect of an explosive which is due to the ...

  7. Ball valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_valve

    In reduced bore (sometimes reduced port) ball valves, flow through the valve is one pipe size smaller than the valve's pipe size resulting in the flow area being smaller than the pipe. As the flow discharge remains constant and is equal to the area of flow (A) times velocity (V), A 1 V 1 = A 2 V 2 {\displaystyle A_{1}V_{1}=A_{2}V_{2}} the ...

  8. PSR B1919+21 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSR_B1919+21

    PSR B1919+21 is a pulsar with a period of 1.3373 seconds [4] and a pulse width of 0.04 seconds. Discovered by Jocelyn Bell Burnell on 28 November 1967, it is the first discovered radio pulsar. [ 5 ] The power and regularity of the signals were briefly thought to resemble an extraterrestrial beacon , leading the source to be nicknamed LGM ...

  9. Rotameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotameter

    Readings are usually taken at the top of the widest part of the float; the center for an ellipsoid, or the top for a cylinder. Some manufacturers use a different standard. [3] The "float" must not float in the fluid: it has to have a higher density than the fluid, otherwise it will float to the top even if there is no flow.
