  2. Grammatical modifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammatical_modifier

    In linguistics, a modifier is an optional element in phrase structure or clause structure [1] which modifies the meaning of another element in the structure. For instance, the adjective "red" acts as a modifier in the noun phrase "red ball", providing extra details about which particular ball is being referred to.

  3. GW approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GW_approximation

    The GW approximation (GWA) is an approximation made in order to calculate the self-energy of a many-body system of electrons. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The approximation is that the expansion of the self-energy Σ in terms of the single particle Green's function G and the screened Coulomb interaction W (in units of ℏ = 1 {\displaystyle \hbar =1} )

  4. List of gravitational wave observations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gravitational_wave...

    Gravitational wave events are named starting with the prefix GW, while observations that trigger an event alert but have not (yet) been confirmed are named starting with the prefix S. [8] Six digits then indicate the date of the event, with the two first digits representing the year, the two middle digits the month and two final digits the day ...

    GW approximation, an estimate of a many-body electron system's self-energy; Gigawatt (GW), a unit for measuring power—equal to 10 9 watts; Gravitational waves, ripples in the curvature of spacetime that propagate as waves The prefix on names of gravitational wave observations

  6. Unified Soil Classification System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Soil...

    For example, GW-GM corresponds to "well-graded gravel with silt." If the soil has more than 15% by weight retained on a #4 sieve (R #4 > 15%), there is a significant amount of gravel, and the suffix "with gravel" may be added to the group name, but the group symbol does not change. For example, SP-SM could refer to "poorly graded SAND with silt ...

  7. Gravitational wave background - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_wave_background

    The gravitational wave background (also GWB and stochastic background) is a random background of gravitational waves permeating the Universe, which is detectable by gravitational-wave experiments, like pulsar timing arrays. [1]

    gw is used in various languages for /ɡʷ/, and in Dene Suline it represents /kʷ/. ǥw , capital Ǥw (or G̱w ), is used in Tlingit for /qʷ/ (in Alaska); in Canada, this sound is represented by ghw .

  9. Plus and minus signs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plus_and_minus_signs

    The plus sign (+) and the minus sign (−) are mathematical symbols used to denote positive and negative functions, respectively. In addition, + represents the operation of addition, which results in a sum, while − represents subtraction, resulting in a difference. [1]
