    An example is the character 搾 which is eliminated in favor of the variant form 榨. The 扌 'HAND' with three strokes on the left of the eliminated 搾 is now seen as more complex, appearing as the ⽊ 'TREE' radical 木, with four strokes, in the chosen variant 榨. Not all characters standardised in the simplified set consist of fewer strokes.

    Dimanganese decacarbonyl, [3] which has the chemical formula Mn 2 (CO) 10, is a binary bimetallic carbonyl complex centered around the first row transition metal manganese.The first reported synthesis of Mn 2 (CO) 10 was in 1954 at Linde Air Products Company and was performed by Brimm, Lynch, and Sesny.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebra

    Algebra is the branch of mathematics that studies certain abstract systems, known as algebraic structures, and the manipulation of expressions within those systems. It is a generalization of arithmetic that introduces variables and algebraic operations other than the standard arithmetic operations, such as addition and multiplication.

  5. Lambda-CDM model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambda-CDM_model

    It is referred to as the standard model of Big Bang cosmology [1] because it is the simplest model that provides a reasonably good account of: the existence and structure of the cosmic microwave background; the large-scale structure in the distribution of galaxies; the observed abundances of hydrogen (including deuterium), helium, and lithium

  6. Sulfur - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur

    The simplest sulfoxide, dimethyl sulfoxide, is a common solvent; a common sulfone is sulfolane. Sulfonic acids are used in many detergents. Compounds with carbon–sulfur multiple bonds are uncommon, an exception being carbon disulfide , a volatile colorless liquid that is structurally similar to carbon dioxide.

    For example, in C 60 Br 8 and C 60 Br 24, the Br atoms are in 1,3- or 1,4-positions with respect to each other. Under various conditions a vast number of halogenated derivatives of C 60 can be produced, some with an extraordinary selectivity on one or two isomers over the other possible ones.

  8. Neoliberalism - Wikipedia

    The Handbook, for example, further argues that "such lack of specificity [for the term] reduces its capacity as an analytic frame. If neoliberalism is to serve as a way of understanding the transformation of society over the last few decades, then the concept is in need of unpacking". [ 13 ]

  9. Anthropic principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropic_principle

    This discovery was unequivocal evidence that the universe has changed radically over time (for example, via the Big Bang). [ citation needed ] Carter defined two forms of the anthropic principle, a "weak" one which referred only to anthropic selection of privileged spacetime locations in the universe, and a more controversial "strong" form that ...
