  2. Discrete-time Fourier transform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete-time_Fourier...

    The term discrete-time refers to the fact that the transform operates on discrete data, often samples whose interval has units of time. From uniformly spaced samples it produces a function of frequency that is a periodic summation of the continuous Fourier transform of the original continuous function.

  3. Dynamical pictures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamical_pictures

    In the Schrödinger picture, the state | at time t is related to the state | at time 0 by a unitary time-evolution operator, (): | = | . If the Hamiltonian does not vary with time, then the time-evolution operator can be written as U ( t ) = e − i H t / ℏ , {\displaystyle U(t)=e^{-iHt/\hbar },} where H is the Hamiltonian and ħ is the ...

  4. Time in physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_in_physics

    t is the time between these same two events, but as measured in the stationary reference frame; v is the speed of the moving reference frame relative to the stationary one; c is the speed of light. Moving objects therefore are said to show a slower passage of time. This is known as time dilation.

  5. Retarded time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retarded_time

    Position vectors r and r′ used in the calculation. Retarded time t r or t′ is calculated with a "speed-distance-time" calculation for EM fields.. If the EM field is radiated at position vector r′ (within the source charge distribution), and an observer at position r measures the EM field at time t, the time delay for the field to travel from the charge distribution to the observer is |r ...

  6. Fan chart (time series) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_chart_(time_series)

    In time series analysis, a fan chart is a chart that joins a simple line chart for observed past data, by showing ranges for possible values of future data together with a line showing a central estimate or most likely value for the future outcomes.

  7. Interaction picture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interaction_picture

    Any possible choice of parts will yield a valid interaction picture; but in order for the interaction picture to be useful in simplifying the analysis of a problem, the parts will typically be chosen so that H 0,S is well understood and exactly solvable, while H 1,S contains some harder-to-analyze perturbation to this system.

  8. Relativity of simultaneity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relativity_of_simultaneity

    Roundtrip radar-time isocontours. The Lorentz-transform calculation above uses a definition of extended-simultaneity (i.e. of when and where events occur at which you were not present) that might be referred to as the co-moving or "tangent free-float-frame" definition. This definition is naturally extrapolated to events in gravitationally ...

  9. Orders of magnitude (time) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(time)

    Clock time and calendar time have duodecimal or sexagesimal orders of magnitude rather than decimal, e.g., a year is 12 months, and a minute is 60 seconds. The smallest meaningful increment of time is the Planck time―the time light takes to traverse the Planck distance, many decimal orders of magnitude smaller than a second. [1]
