A delta ray is a secondary electron with enough energy to escape a significant distance away from the primary radiation beam and produce further ionization. [1]: 25 The term is sometimes used to describe any recoil particle caused by secondary ionization.
The Delta states discussed here are only the lowest-mass quantum excitations of the proton and neutron. At higher spins , additional higher mass Delta states appear, all defined by having constant 3 / 2 or 1 / 2 isospin (depending on charge), but with spin 3 / 2 , 5 / 2 , 7 / 2 , ..., 11 / 2 ...
The delta potential is the potential = (), where δ(x) is the Dirac delta function. It is called a delta potential well if λ is negative, and a delta potential barrier if λ is positive. The delta has been defined to occur at the origin for simplicity; a shift in the delta function's argument does not change any of the following results.
that contains electron and hole distributions and , respectively, where is the carrier momentum. Additionally, S λ {\displaystyle S_{\lambda }} contains also a direct contribution from exciton populations Δ N λ {\displaystyle \Delta N_{\lambda }} that describes truly bound electron–hole pairs.

In this case, it is easier to put electrons into the higher energy set of orbitals than it is to put two into the same low-energy orbital, because two electrons in the same orbital repel each other. So, one electron is put into each of the five d-orbitals in accord with Hund's rule, and "high spin" complexes are formed before any pairing occurs.
[5]: 174 The Dirac delta is used to model a tall narrow spike function (an impulse), and other similar abstractions such as a point charge, point mass or electron point. For example, to calculate the dynamics of a billiard ball being struck, one can approximate the force of the impact by a Dirac delta.
These are the so-called band-gaps, which can be shown to exist in any shape of periodic potential (not just delta or square barriers). For a different and detailed calculation of the gap formula (i.e. for the gap between bands) and the level splitting of eigenvalues of the one-dimensional Schrödinger equation see Müller-Kirsten. [5]
