  2. Hysterosalpingography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hysterosalpingography

    Hysterosalpingography (HSG), also known as uterosalpingography, [1] is a radiologic procedure to investigate the shape of the uterine cavity and the shape and patency of the fallopian tubes. It is a special x-ray procedure using dye to look at the womb ( uterus ) and fallopian tubes. [ 2 ]

  3. Allometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allometry

    Allometry is often expressed in terms of a scaling exponent based on body mass, or body length (snout–vent length, total length, etc.). A perfectly allometrically scaling organism would see all volume-based properties change proportionally to the body mass, all surface area-based properties change with mass to the power of 2/3, and all length ...

  4. SI base unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_base_unit

    mass "The kilogram, symbol kg, is the SI unit of mass. It is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the Planck constant h to be 6.626 070 15 × 10 −34 when expressed in the unit J s, which is equal to kg m 2 s −1, where the metre and the second are defined in terms of c and ∆ν Cs." [1] The mass of one litre of water at the ...

  5. Invariant mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invariant_mass

    If a center-of-momentum frame exists for the system, then the invariant mass of a system is equal to its total mass in that "rest frame". In other reference frames, where the system's momentum is non-zero, the total mass (a.k.a. relativistic mass) of the system is greater than the invariant mass, but the invariant mass remains unchanged.

  6. Astronomical system of units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astronomical_system_of_units

    The astronomical unit of length is now defined as exactly 149 597 870 700 meters. [4] It is approximately equal to the mean Earth–Sun distance. It was formerly defined as that length for which the Gaussian gravitational constant (k) takes the value 0.017 202 098 95 when the units of measurement are the astronomical units of length, mass and ...

  7. Fluoroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoroscopy

    The electrostatic focusing lenses are located along the length of the tube and are responsible for the focusing of the electrons across the tube from the input to the output phosphor. The output phosphor is usually made up of cadmium sulfide crystals and is what records the arrival of the photoelectrons and normally results in 50–70 times gain.

  8. Rigid body dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid_body_dynamics

    In the physical science of dynamics, rigid-body dynamics studies the movement of systems of interconnected bodies under the action of external forces.The assumption that the bodies are rigid (i.e. they do not deform under the action of applied forces) simplifies analysis, by reducing the parameters that describe the configuration of the system to the translation and rotation of reference ...

  9. Multifractal system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multifractal_system

    Depending on the object under study, these multiresolution quantities, denoted by (), can be local averages in boxes of size , gradients over distance , wavelet coefficients at scale , etc. For multifractal objects, one usually observes a global power-law scaling of the form: [ citation needed ]
