  2. Incompatible element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incompatible_element

    Another way to classify incompatible elements is by mass (lanthanide series): light rare-earth elements (LREE) are La, Ce, Pr, Nd, and Sm, and heavy rare-earth elements (HREE) are Eu–Lu. Rocks or magmas that are rich, or only slightly depleted, in light rare-earth elements are referred to as "fertile", and those with strong depletions in LREE ...

  3. Masaru Emoto - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masaru_Emoto

    Masaru Emoto (江本 勝, Emoto Masaru, July 22, 1943 – October 17, 2014) [1] was a Japanese businessman, author and pseudoscientist who claimed that human consciousness could affect the molecular structure of water. His 2004 book The Hidden Messages in Water was a New York Times best seller. [2]

  4. Partially ordered set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partially_ordered_set

    If the number 1 is excluded, while keeping divisibility as ordering on the elements greater than 1, then the resulting poset does not have a least element, but any prime number is a minimal element for it. In this poset, 60 is an upper bound (though not a least upper bound) of the subset {,,,}, which does not have any lower bound (since 1 is ...

  5. Antichain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antichain

    An antichain in is a subset of in which each pair of different elements is incomparable; that is, there is no order relation between any two different elements in . (However, some authors use the term "antichain" to mean strong antichain , a subset such that there is no element of the poset smaller than two distinct elements of the antichain.)

  6. Order theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_theory

    Now there are also elements of a poset that are special with respect to some subset of the order. This leads to the definition of upper bounds. Given a subset S of some poset P, an upper bound of S is an element b of P that is above all elements of S. Formally, this means that s ≤ b, for all s in S. Lower bounds again are defined by inverting ...

  7. Maximal and minimal elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximal_and_minimal_elements

    In a directed set, every pair of elements (particularly pairs of incomparable elements) has a common upper bound within the set. If a directed set has a maximal element, it is also its greatest element, [proof 7] and hence its only maximal element. For a directed set without maximal or greatest elements, see examples 1 and 2 above.

  8. Principles of grouping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principles_of_grouping

    Refers to the way smaller elements are "assembled" in a composition. Also called "grouping", the principle concerns the effect generated when the collective presence of the set of elements becomes more meaningful than their presence as separate elements. (It also depends on a correct order for comprehension.)

  9. Cerebrospinal fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebrospinal_fluid

    Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a clear, colorless body fluid found within the tissue that surrounds the brain and spinal cord of all vertebrates.. CSF is produced by specialized ependymal cells in the choroid plexus of the ventricles of the brain, and absorbed in the arachnoid granulations.
