  2. Potential flow around a circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_flow_around_a...

    A cylinder (or disk) of radius R is placed in a two-dimensional, incompressible, inviscid flow. The goal is to find the steady velocity vector V and pressure p in a plane, subject to the condition that far from the cylinder the velocity vector (relative to unit vectors i and j) is: [1] = +,

  4. PSR J0952–0607 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSR_J0952–0607

    PSR J0952–0607 is a massive millisecond pulsar in a binary system, located between 3,200–5,700 light-years (970–1,740 pc) from Earth in the constellation Sextans. [6] It holds the record for being the most massive neutron star known as of 2022, with a mass 2.35 ± 0.17 times that of the Sun—potentially close to the Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkoff mass upper limit for neutron stars.

  5. Rayleigh–Plesset equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh–Plesset_equation

    The Rayleigh–Plesset equation is often applied to the study of cavitation bubbles, shown here forming behind a propeller.. In fluid mechanics, the Rayleigh–Plesset equation or Besant–Rayleigh–Plesset equation is a nonlinear ordinary differential equation which governs the dynamics of a spherical bubble in an infinite body of incompressible fluid.

  6. PSR B1257+12 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSR_B1257+12

    The pulsar is estimated to have a mass of 1.4 M ☉, which is typical for most neutron stars and pulsars. The radius is estimated to be around 10 kilometres or 6.2 miles (~1.5 × 10 −5 R ☉), also common for pulsars and neutron stars. The pulsar is extremely hot, with a surface temperature of up to around 28,856 K (28,583 °C; 51,481 °F).

  7. Number density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_density

    In SI units, number density is measured in m −3, although cm −3 is often used. However, these units are not quite practical when dealing with atoms or molecules of gases, liquids or solids at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, because the resulting numbers are extremely large (on the order of 10 20).

  8. Close-packing of equal spheres - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Close-packing_of_equal_spheres

    The distance between the centers along the shortest path namely that straight line will therefore be r 1 + r 2 where r 1 is the radius of the first sphere and r 2 is the radius of the second. In close packing all of the spheres share a common radius, r. Therefore, two centers would simply have a distance 2r.

  9. 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 ...
