  2. Wigner–Seitz radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wigner–Seitz_radius

    The Wigner–Seitz radius, named after Eugene Wigner and Frederick Seitz, is the radius of a sphere whose volume is equal to the mean volume per atom in a solid (for first group metals). [1] In the more general case of metals having more valence electrons, r s {\displaystyle r_{\rm {s}}} is the radius of a sphere whose volume is equal to the ...

  3. Schwarzschild radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarzschild_radius

    Therefore, as the body accumulates matter at a given fixed density (in this example, 997 kg/m 3, the density of water), its Schwarzschild radius will increase more quickly than its physical radius. When a body of this density has grown to around 136 million solar masses (1.36 × 10 8 M ☉), its physical radius would be overtaken by its ...

  4. Mass concentration (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_concentration_(chemistry)

    In chemistry, the mass concentration ρ i (or γ i) is defined as the mass of a constituent m i divided by the volume of the mixture V. [1]= For a pure chemical the mass concentration equals its density (mass divided by volume); thus the mass concentration of a component in a mixture can be called the density of a component in a mixture.

  5. Number density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_density

    Using the number density as a function of spatial coordinates, the total number of objects N in the entire volume V can be calculated as = (,,), where dV = dx dy dz is a volume element. If each object possesses the same mass m 0 , the total mass m of all the objects in the volume V can be expressed as m = ∭ V m 0 n ( x , y , z ) d V ...

  6. Specific volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_volume

    For a substance X with a specific volume of 0.657 cm 3 /g and a substance Y with a specific volume 0.374 cm 3 /g, the density of each substance can be found by taking the inverse of the specific volume; therefore, substance X has a density of 1.522 g/cm 3 and substance Y has a density of 2.673 g/cm 3. With this information, the specific ...

  7. Radial distribution function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radial_distribution_function

    calculation of () Radial distribution function for the Lennard-Jones model fluid at =, =.. In statistical mechanics, the radial distribution function, (or pair correlation function) () in a system of particles (atoms, molecules, colloids, etc.), describes how density varies as a function of distance from a reference particle.

  8. Mean inter-particle distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_inter-particle_distance

    Let us assume particles inside a sphere having volume , so that = /. Note that since the particles in the ideal gas are non-interacting, the probability of finding a particle at a certain distance from another particle is the same as the probability of finding a particle at the same distance from any other point; we shall use the center of the ...

  9. Jeans instability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeans_instability

    The formula for Jeans length is: = /, where is the Boltzmann constant, is the temperature of the cloud, is the mean molecular weight of the particles, is the gravitational constant, and is the cloud's mass density (i.e. the cloud's mass divided by the cloud's volume).
