  2. Effects of nuclear explosions on human health - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effects_of_nuclear...

    The medical effects of the atomic bomb upon humans can be put into the four categories below, with the effects of larger thermonuclear weapons producing blast and thermal effects so large that there would be a negligible number of survivors close enough to the center of the blast who would experience prompt/acute radiation effects, which were observed after the 16 kiloton yield Hiroshima bomb ...

  3. Otto cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otto_cycle

    The processes are described by: [2] Process 0–1 a mass of air is drawn into piston/cylinder arrangement at constant pressure. Process 1–2 is an adiabatic (isentropic) compression of the charge as the piston moves from bottom dead center (BDC) to top dead center (TDC).

  4. Fine structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fine_structure

    The fine structure energy corrections can be obtained by using perturbation theory.To perform this calculation one must add three corrective terms to the Hamiltonian: the leading order relativistic correction to the kinetic energy, the correction due to the spin–orbit coupling, and the Darwin term coming from the quantum fluctuating motion or zitterbewegung of the electron.

  5. Elementary particle - Wikipedia

    String theory predicts 1- to 10-branes (a 1-brane being a string and a 10-brane being a 10-dimensional object) that prevent tears in the "fabric" of space using the uncertainty principle (e.g., the electron orbiting a hydrogen atom has the probability, albeit small, that it could be anywhere else in the universe at any given moment).

  6. List of nuclear weapons tests - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nuclear_weapons_tests

    The table in this section summarizes all worldwide nuclear testing (including the two bombs dropped in combat which were not tests). The country names are links to summary articles for each country, which may in turn be used to drill down to test series articles which contain details on every known nuclear explosion and test.

    HIARCS is a proprietary UCI chess engine developed by Mark Uniacke. [1] Its name is an acronym standing for higher intelligence auto-response chess system.Because Hiarcs is written portable in C, it is available on multiple platforms such as Pocket PC, Palm OS, PDAs, iOS, Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X.

  9. Carbide - Wikipedia

    The long-held view is that the carbon atoms fit into octahedral interstices in a close-packed metal lattice when the metal atom radius is greater than approximately 135 pm: [2] When the metal atoms are cubic close-packed, (ccp), then filling all of the octahedral interstices with carbon achieves 1:1 stoichiometry with the rock salt structure.
