  2. Ultra-high vacuum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high_vacuum

    Ultra-high vacuum (often spelled ultrahigh in American English, UHV) is the vacuum regime characterised by pressures lower than about 1 × 10 −6 pascals (1.0 × 10 −8 mbar; 7.5 × 10 −9 Torr). UHV conditions are created by pumping the gas out of a UHV chamber.

  3. UHV - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UHV

    UHV may refer to: Ultra-high vacuum, the vacuum regime characterised by pressures lower than about 10 −7 pascal; Ultra-high voltage, a classification of overhead power line with an operating voltage of higher than 800 kV; University of Houston–Victoria, a university in Victoria, Texas, US

  4. Ultra-high-voltage electricity transmission in China - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high-voltage...

    The UHV grid will aid China's plan of electrification and decarbonization, [15] and enable integration of renewable energy by removing the transmission bottleneck that is currently limiting expansions in wind and solar generation capacity whilst further developing the market for long-range electric vehicles in China.

  5. Vacuum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum

    ultra-high vacuum (UHV) Pressure can be achieved by elaborate materials (e.g. low-carbon stainless steel), metal sealings, special surface preparations and cleaning, bake-out and high vacuum pumps; molecular flow regime for gases below 1 × 10 −9 Pa: extreme-high vacuum (XHV)

  6. Ion pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion_pump

    Ion pumps are commonly used in ultra-high vacuum (UHV) systems, as they can attain ultimate pressures less than 10 −11 mbar. [1] In contrast to other common UHV pumps, such as turbomolecular pumps and diffusion pumps, ion pumps have no moving parts and use no oil. They are therefore clean, need little maintenance, and produce no vibrations.

  7. Moral Injury - The Huffington Post

    This series came from a determination to understand why, and to explore how their way back from war can be smoothed. Moral injury is a relatively new concept that seems to describe what many feel: a sense that their fundamental understanding of right and wrong has been violated, and the grief, numbness or guilt that often ensues.

  8. Moral Injury: The Grunts - The ... - The Huffington Post

    projects.huffingtonpost.com/moral-injury/the-grunts

    In contrast to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, which springs from fear, moral injury is a violation of what each of us considers right or wrong. The diagnosis of PTSD has been defined and officially endorsed since 1980 by the mental health community, and those suffering from it have earned broad public sympathy and understanding.

  9. Langmuir (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langmuir_(unit)

    The langmuir (symbol: L) is a unit of exposure (or dosage) to a surface (e.g. of a crystal) and is used in ultra-high vacuum (UHV) surface physics to study the adsorption of gases. It is a practical unit, and is not dimensionally homogeneous, and so is used only in this field. It is named after American physicist Irving Langmuir.
