  2. Inclusion–exclusion principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclusionexclusion...

    Inclusion–exclusion principle. In combinatorics, a branch of mathematics, the inclusion–exclusion principle is a counting technique which generalizes the familiar method of obtaining the number of elements in the union of two finite sets; symbolically expressed as. where A and B are two finite sets and | S | indicates the cardinality of a ...

  3. Exchange interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchange_interaction

    Exchange interaction is the main physical effect responsible for ferromagnetism, and has no classical analogue. For bosons, the exchange symmetry makes them bunch together, and the exchange interaction takes the form of an effective attraction that causes identical particles to be found closer together, as in Bose–Einstein condensation.

  4. Combinatorial principles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinatorial_principles

    In proving results in combinatorics several useful combinatorial rules or combinatorial principles are commonly recognized and used. The rule of sum, rule of product, and inclusion–exclusion principle are often used for enumerative purposes. Bijective proofs are utilized to demonstrate that two sets have the same number of elements.

  5. Antibonding molecular orbital - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antibonding_molecular_orbital

    The Pauli exclusion principle prohibits any two electrons (e-) in a molecule from having the same set of quantum numbers. [4] Therefore each original atomic orbital of the isolated atoms (for example, the ground state energy level, 1 s ) splits into two molecular orbitals belonging to the pair, one lower in energy than the original atomic level ...

  6. Nuclear shell model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_shell_model

    In nuclear physics, atomic physics, and nuclear chemistry, the nuclear shell model utilizes the Pauli exclusion principle to model the structure of atomic nuclei in terms of energy levels. [ 1 ] The first shell model was proposed by Dmitri Ivanenko (together with E. Gapon) in 1932. The model was developed in 1949 following independent work by ...

  7. Indistinguishable particles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indistinguishable_particles

    There are two main categories of identical particles: bosons, which can share quantum states, and fermions, which cannot (as described by the Pauli exclusion principle). Examples of bosons are photons, gluons, phonons, helium-4 nuclei and all mesons. Examples of fermions are electrons, neutrinos, quarks, protons, neutrons, and helium-3 nuclei.

  8. Pauli exclusion principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pauli_exclusion_principle

    In quantum mechanics, the Pauli exclusion principle states that two or more identical particles with half-integer spins (i.e. fermions) cannot simultaneously occupy the same quantum state within a system that obeys the laws of quantum mechanics. This principle was formulated by Austrian physicist Wolfgang Pauli in 1925 for electrons, and later ...

  9. Inclusion compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclusion_compound

    In host–guest chemistry, an inclusion compound (also known as an inclusion complex) is a chemical complex in which one chemical compound (the "host") has a cavity into which a "guest" compound can be accommodated. The interaction between the host and guest involves purely van der Waals bonding. The definition of inclusion compounds is very ...
