  2. Energy density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_density

    The higher the energy density of the fuel, the more energy may be stored or transported for the same amount of volume. The energy of a fuel per unit mass is called its specific energy. The adjacent figure shows the gravimetric and volumetric energy density of some fuels and storage technologies (modified from the Gasoline article).

  5. Density of states - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_of_states

    The density of states related to volume V and N countable energy levels is defined as: = = (()). Because the smallest allowed change of momentum for a particle in a box of dimension and length is () = (/), the volume-related density of states for continuous energy levels is obtained in the limit as ():= (()), Here, is the spatial dimension of the considered system and the wave vector.

  6. Cosmological constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmological_constant

    The cosmological constant has the same effect as an intrinsic energy density of the vacuum, ρ vac (and an associated pressure). In this context, it is commonly moved to the right-hand side of the equation using Λ = κρ vac. It is common to quote values of energy density directly, though still using the name "cosmological constant".

    physics, engineering (Damping ratio of oscillator or resonator; energy stored versus energy lost) Relative density: RD = hydrometers, material comparisons (ratio of density of a material to a reference material—usually water)

  8. Specific energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_energy

    It is also sometimes called gravimetric energy density, which is not to be confused with energy density, which is defined as energy per unit volume. It is used to quantify, for example, stored heat and other thermodynamic properties of substances such as specific internal energy , specific enthalpy , specific Gibbs free energy , and specific ...

  9. Planck units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck_units

    Moreover, the choice of what factors to normalize, among the factors appearing in the fundamental equations of physics, is not evident, and the values of the Planck units are sensitive to this choice. The factor 4 π is ubiquitous in theoretical physics because in three-dimensional space, the surface area of a sphere of radius r is 4 π r 2.
