    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pituitary_stalk...

    PSIS features in later childhood (may) include: [1] [2] [3] short stature (80–99%) seizures (5–29%) hypotension; delayed intellectual development; delayed puberty (30–79%) PSIS is associated with a higher frequency of breech presentation, caesarean section, and/or low Apgar score, though these are likely consequences rather than causes.

    The kayser (K) is a unit of wavenumber equal to 1 cm1 (100 m −1). The gal (Gal) is a unit of acceleration equal to 1 cm/s 2. [3] The dyne (dyn) is a unit of force equal to 1 gcm⋅s −2 (10 μN). [3] The barye (Ba) is a unit of pressure equal to 1 dyn⋅cm2 (100 mPa). The erg (erg) is a unit of energy equal to 1 dyn⋅cm (100 nJ). [3]

  6. Centimetre or millimetre of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centimetre_or_millimetre...

    A centimetre of water [1] is a unit of pressure. It may be defined as the pressure exerted by a column of water of 1 cm in height at 4 °C (temperature of maximum density) at the standard acceleration of gravity, so that 1 cmH 2 O (4°C) = 999.9720 kg/m 3 × 9.80665 m/s 2 × 1 cm = 98.063754138 Pa ≈ 98.0638 Pa, but conventionally a nominal maximum water density of 1000 kg/m 3 is used, giving ...

  7. Specific weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_weight

    The specific weight, also known as the unit weight (symbol γ, the Greek letter gamma), is a volume-specific quantity defined as the weight W divided by the volume V of a material: = / Equivalently, it may also be formulated as the product of density, ρ, and gravity acceleration, g: = Its unit of measurement in the International System of Units (SI) is newton per cubic metre (N/m 3), with ...

  8. PSI (computational chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSI_(computational_chemistry)

    Psi is an ab initio computational chemistry package originally written by the research group of Henry F. Schaefer, III (University of Georgia). Utilizing Psi, one can perform a calculation on a molecular system with various kinds of methods such as Hartree-Fock , Post-Hartree–Fock electron correlation methods, and density functional theory .

  9. Centimetre–gram–second system of units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centimetre–gram–second...

    For example, the CGS unit of force is the dyne, which is defined as 1 gcm/s 2, so the SI unit of force, the newton (1 kg⋅m/s 2), is equal to 100 000 dynes. On the other hand, in measurements of electromagnetic phenomena (involving units of charge , electric and magnetic fields, voltage , and so on), converting between CGS and SI is less ...
