  2. Art gallery problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_gallery_problem

    As Valtr (1998) showed, the set system derived from an art gallery problem has bounded VC dimension, allowing the application of set cover algorithms based on ε-nets whose approximation ratio is the logarithm of the optimal number of guards rather than of the number of polygon vertices. [12]

  3. Rutherford scattering experiments - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rutherford_scattering...

    The prevailing model of atomic structure before Rutherford's experiments was devised by J. J. Thomson. [2]: 123 Thomson had discovered the electron through his work on cathode rays [3] and proposed that they existed within atoms, and an electric current is electrons hopping from one atom to an adjacent one in a series.

  4. Hénon–Heiles system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hénon–Heiles_System

    In 1964 they published an article titled "The applicability of the third integral of motion: Some numerical experiments". [1] Their original idea was to find a third integral of motion in a galactic dynamics. For that purpose they took a simplified two-dimensional nonlinear rotational symmetric potential and found that the third integral ...

  5. Objective-collapse theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Objective-collapse_theory

    The most prominent experiments of this kind are with atoms, molecules and phonons. Non-interferometric experiments. They are based on the fact that the collapse noise, besides collapsing the wave function, also induces a diffusion on top of particles’ motion, which acts always, also when the wave function is already localized.

  6. Adjoint state method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjoint_state_method

    If the operator was self-adjoint, =, the direct state equation and the adjoint state equation would have the same left-hand side. In the goal of never inverting a matrix, which is a very slow process numerically, a LU decomposition can be used instead to solve the state equation, in O ( m 3 ) {\displaystyle O(m^{3})} operations for the ...

    The next stage of muon g − 2 research was conducted at the Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) Alternating Gradient Synchrotron; the experiment was known as (BNL) Muon E821 experiment, [17] but it has also been called "muon experiment at BNL" or "(muon) g − 2 at BNL" etc. [7] Brookhaven's Muon g − 2 experiment was constructed from 1989 to 1996 and collected data from 1997 to 2001.

  8. Spalart–Allmaras turbulence model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spalart–Allmaras...

    In physics, the Spalart–Allmaras model is a one-equation model that solves a modelled transport equation for the kinematic eddy turbulent viscosity.The Spalart–Allmaras model was designed specifically for aerospace applications involving wall-bounded flows and has been shown to give good results for boundary layers subjected to adverse pressure gradients.

  9. Rüchardt experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rüchardt_Experiment

    The Rüchardt experiment, [1] [2] [3] invented by Eduard Rüchardt, is a famous experiment in thermodynamics, which determines the ratio of the molar heat capacities of a gas, i.e. the ratio of (heat capacity at constant pressure) and (heat capacity at constant volume) and is denoted by (gamma, for ideal gas) or (kappa, isentropic exponent, for real gas).
