  2. Wave function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_function

    The term "spin function" instead of "wave function" is used by some authors. This contrasts the solutions to position space wave functions, the position coordinates being continuous degrees of freedom, because then the Schrödinger equation does take the form of a wave equation.

  3. State function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_function

    Generally, a state space is defined by an equation of the form (,,, …) =, where P denotes pressure, T denotes temperature, V denotes volume, and the ellipsis denotes other possible state variables like particle number N and entropy S. If the state space is two-dimensional as in the above example, it can be visualized as a three-dimensional ...

  4. Psi function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psi_function

    Psi function can refer, in mathematics, to the ordinal collapsing function ...

  5. List of equations in quantum mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_equations_in...

    The general form of wavefunction for a system of particles, each with position r i and z-component of spin s z i. Sums are over the discrete variable s z , integrals over continuous positions r . For clarity and brevity, the coordinates are collected into tuples, the indices label the particles (which cannot be done physically, but is ...

  6. Equation of state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_of_state

    Multiparameter equations of state are empirical equations of state that can be used to represent pure fluids with high accuracy. Multiparameter equations of state are empirical correlations of experimental data and are usually formulated in the Helmholtz free energy. The functional form of these models is in most parts not physically motivated.

  7. State variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_variable

    The equations relating the current state of a system to its most recent input and past states are called the state equations, and the equations expressing the values of the output variables in terms of the state variables and inputs are called the output equations. As shown below, the state equations and output equations for a linear time ...

  8. Stream function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stream_function

    Solving the above equation for produces the equivalent form ∇ ψ = R u . {\displaystyle \nabla \psi =R\,\mathbf {u} .} From these forms it is immediately evident that the vectors u {\displaystyle \mathbf {u} } and ∇ ψ {\displaystyle \nabla \psi } are

  9. Pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure

    However, whenever equation-of-state properties, such as densities or changes in densities, must be calculated, pressures must be expressed in terms of their absolute values. For instance, if the atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa (15 psi), a gas (such as helium) at 200 kPa (29 psi) (gauge) (300 kPa or 44 psi [absolute]) is 50% denser than the same ...
