  2. Dark matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_matter

    In astronomy, dark matter is an invisible and hypothetical form of matter that does not interact with light or other electromagnetic radiation.Dark matter is implied by gravitational effects which cannot be explained by general relativity unless more matter is present than can be observed.

  3. Black-body radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black-body_radiation

    When the body is black, the absorption is obvious: the amount of light absorbed is all the light that hits the surface. For a black body much bigger than the wavelength, the light energy absorbed at any wavelength λ per unit time is strictly proportional to the blackbody curve. This means that the blackbody curve is the amount of light energy ...

  4. Biological dark matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_dark_matter

    Biological dark matter is an informal term for unclassified or poorly understood genetic material. This genetic material may refer to genetic material produced by unclassified microorganisms . By extension, biological dark matter may also refer to the un-isolated microorganisms whose existence can only be inferred from the genetic material that ...

  5. Black body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_body

    A grey body is one where α, ρ and τ are constant for all wavelengths; this term also is used to mean a body for which α is temperature- and wavelength-independent. A white body is one for which all incident radiation is reflected uniformly in all directions: τ = 0, α = 0, and ρ = 1. For a black body, τ = 0, α = 1, and ρ = 0. Planck ...

  6. Dark radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_radiation

    Dark radiation (also dark electromagnetism) [1] is a postulated type of radiation that mediates interactions of dark matter.. By analogy to the way photons mediate electromagnetic interactions between particles in the Standard Model (called baryonic matter in cosmology), dark radiation is proposed to mediate interactions between dark matter particles. [1]

  7. Hawking radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawking_radiation

    The same effect occurs for regular matter falling onto a white hole solution. Matter that falls on the white hole accumulates on it, but has no future region into which it can go. Tracing the future of this matter, it is compressed onto the final singular endpoint of the white hole evolution, into a trans-Planckian region.

  8. Electromagnetic radiation and health - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_radiation...

    Exposure to ELF waves can induce an electric current. Because the human body is conductive, electric currents and resulting voltages differences typically accumulate on the skin but do not reach interior tissues. [22] People can start to perceive high-voltage charges as tingling when hair or clothing in contact with the skin stands up or ...

  9. Bioelectromagnetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioelectromagnetics

    Bioelectromagnetics, also known as bioelectromagnetism, is the study of the interaction between electromagnetic fields and biological entities. Areas of study include electromagnetic fields produced by living cells, tissues or organisms, the effects of man-made sources of electromagnetic fields like mobile phones, and the application of electromagnetic radiation toward therapies for the ...
