  2. Dollar (reactivity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dollar_(reactivity)

    By definition, reactivity of zero dollars is just barely on the edge of criticality using both prompt and delayed neutrons. A reactivity less than zero dollars is subcritical; the power level will decrease exponentially and a sustained chain reaction will not occur. One dollar is defined as the threshold between delayed and prompt criticality.

  3. Disentanglement puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disentanglement_puzzle

    Several subtypes are included under this category, the names of which are sometimes used synonymously for the group: wire puzzles; nail puzzles; ring-and-string puzzles; et al. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Although the initial object is disentanglement, the reverse problem of reassembling the puzzle can be as hard as—or even harder than—disentanglement.

  4. Ring-opening polymerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring-opening_polymerization

    In polymer chemistry, ring-opening polymerization (ROP) is a form of chain-growth polymerization in which the terminus of a polymer chain attacks cyclic monomers to form a longer polymer (see figure). The reactive center can be radical, anionic or cationic. Ring-opening of cyclic monomers is often driven by the relief of bond-angle strain.

  5. Rubik's Magic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubik's_Magic

    The puzzle has 12 panels interconnected with nylon wires in a 2 × 6 rectangular shape, measuring approximately 4.25 inches (10.5 cm) by 13 inches (32 cm). The goal of the game is the same as for Rubik's Magic, which is to fold the puzzle from a 2 × 6 rectangular shape into a W-like shape with a certain tile arrangement.

  6. Ring expansion and contraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_expansion_and_contraction

    Working with two smaller rings can allow for elaboration of two parts of the molecule separately before working with the expanded ring. The Dowd-Beckwith ring expansion reaction is also capable of adding several carbons to a ring at a time, and is a useful tool for making large rings. [ 11 ]
