  2. Squeezed states of light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squeezed_states_of_light

    Squeezing resonators are usually operated slightly below threshold, for instance, to avoid damage to the photo diodes due to the bright down-converted field. A squeezing resonator works efficiently at modulation frequencies well inside its linewidth. Only for these frequencies highest squeeze factors can be achieved.

  3. Squeezed coherent state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squeezed_coherent_state

    In physics, a squeezed coherent state is a quantum state that is usually described by two non-commuting observables having continuous spectra of eigenvalues.Examples are position and momentum of a particle, and the (dimension-less) electric field in the amplitude (phase 0) and in the mode (phase 90°) of a light wave (the wave's quadratures).

  4. Spin squeezing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_squeezing

    Spin squeezing is a quantum process that decreases the variance of one of the angular momentum components in an ensemble of particles with a spin.

  5. Short squeeze - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_squeeze

    In the stock market, a short squeeze is a rapid increase in the price of a stock owing primarily to an excess of short selling of a stock rather than underlying fundamentals. A short squeeze occurs when demand has increased relative to supply because short sellers have to buy stock to cover their short positions.

  6. Cock and ball torture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cock_and_ball_torture

    Cock and ball torture (CBT) [a] is a sexual activity involving the application of pain or constriction to the male genitals.This may involve directly painful activities, such as genital piercing, wax play, genital spanking, squeezing, ball-busting, genital flogging, urethral play, tickle torture, erotic electrostimulation, kneeing, or kicking.

  7. Squeeze theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squeeze_theorem

    In calculus, the squeeze theorem (also known as the sandwich theorem, among other names [a]) is a theorem regarding the limit of a function that is bounded between two other functions. The squeeze theorem is used in calculus and mathematical analysis , typically to confirm the limit of a function via comparison with two other functions whose ...

  8. Squeezebox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squeezebox

    Diatonic button accordion (German make, early 20th century) The term squeezebox (also squeeze box, squeeze-box) is a colloquial expression referring to any musical instrument of the general class of hand-held bellows-driven free reed aerophones such as the accordion and the concertina.

  9. Balloon effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balloon_effect

    The balloon effect is a criticism of United States drug policy.The name draws an analogy between efforts to eradicate the production of illegal drugs in South American countries and squeezing a balloon: If a balloon is squeezed the air is moved, but does not disappear, instead moving into another area of less resistance.
