  2. Thomsen's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomsen's_theorem

    Thomsen's theorem, named after Gerhard Thomsen, is a theorem in elementary geometry. It shows that a certain path constructed by line segments being parallel to the edges of a triangle always ends up at its starting point.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomson_problem

    For non-integrable Riesz kernels, the Poppy-seed bagel theorem holds, see the 2004 work of Hardin and Saff. [9] Notable cases include: [10] α = ∞, the Tammes problem (packing); α = 1, the Thomson problem; α = 0, to maximize the product of distances, latterly known as Whyte's problem; α = −1 : maximum average distance problem.

  5. Thomson scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomson_scattering

    Thomson scattering is an important phenomenon in plasma physics and was first explained by the physicist J. J. Thomson. As long as the motion of the particle is non-relativistic (i.e. its speed is much less than the speed of light), the main cause of the acceleration of the particle will be due to the electric field component of the incident ...

  7. Joule–Thomson effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule–Thomson_effect

    In thermodynamics, the Joule–Thomson effect (also known as the Joule–Kelvin effect or Kelvin–Joule effect) describes the temperature change of a real gas or liquid (as differentiated from an ideal gas) when it is expanding; typically caused by the pressure loss from flow through a valve or porous plug while keeping it insulated so that no heat is exchanged with the environment.

  8. Theoretical physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theoretical_physics

    Theoretical physics is a branch of physics that employs mathematical models and abstractions of physical objects and systems to rationalize, explain, and predict natural phenomena. This is in contrast to experimental physics , which uses experimental tools to probe these phenomena.

  9. Reciprocity (electromagnetism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reciprocity_(electromagnetism)

    Now, the equation on the left-hand side of the Lorentz reciprocity theorem can be rewritten by moving the σ from the external current term () to the response field terms , and also adding and subtracting a () term, to obtain the external field multiplied by the total current = :
