  2. Scale factor (cosmology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_factor_(cosmology)

    The current density of the observable universe is of the order of 9.44 · 10 −27 kg m −3 and the age of the universe is of the order of 13.8 billion years, or 4.358 · 10 17 s. The Hubble constant, , is ≈70.88 km s −1 Mpc −1 (The Hubble time is 13.79 billion years).

  3. Scale factor (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_factor_(computer...

    A scale factor of 1 ⁄ 10 cannot be used here, because scaling 160 by 1 ⁄ 10 gives 16, which is greater than the greatest value that can be stored in this fixed-point format. However, 1 ⁄ 11 will work as a scale factor, because the maximum scaled value, 160 ⁄ 11 = 14. 54, fits within this range. Given this set:

  4. Scaling (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scaling_(geometry)

    Each iteration of the Sierpinski triangle contains triangles related to the next iteration by a scale factor of 1/2. In affine geometry, uniform scaling (or isotropic scaling [1]) is a linear transformation that enlarges (increases) or shrinks (diminishes) objects by a scale factor that is the same in all directions (isotropically).

  5. Friedmann equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedmann_equations

    The parameter k discussed below takes the value 0, 1, −1, or the Gaussian curvature, in these three cases respectively. It is this fact that allows us to sensibly speak of a "scale factor" a(t). Einstein's equations now relate the evolution of this scale factor to the pressure and energy of the matter in the universe.

    The scale is logarithmic and defined such that a magnitude 1 star is exactly 100 times brighter than a ... 34 ′, 1 ... Each factor of 10 in intensity ...

  7. Lambda-CDM model - Wikipedia

    The scale factor is related to ... The actual observable amount of lithium in the universe is less than the calculated amount from the ΛCDM model by a factor of 34.

  8. Pixel-art scaling algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixel-art_scaling_algorithms

    Maxim Stepin's hq2x, hq3x, and hq4x are for scale factors of 2:1, 3:1, and 4:1 respectively. Each work by comparing the color value of each pixel to those of its eight immediate neighbors, marking the neighbors as close or distant, and using a pre-generated lookup table to find the proper proportion of input pixels' values for each of the 4, 9 ...

  9. Mercator projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercator_projection

    This implies that the vertical scale factor, h, equals the horizontal scale factor, k. Since k = sec φ, so must h. The graph shows the variation of this scale factor with latitude. Some numerical values are listed below. at latitude 30° the scale factor is k = sec 30° = 1.15, at latitude 45° the scale factor is k = sec 45° = 1.41,
