  2. Parity (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_(physics)

    The complete (rotational-vibrational-electronic-nuclear spin) electromagnetic Hamiltonian of any molecule commutes with (or is invariant to) the parity operation P (or E*, in the notation introduced by Longuet-Higgins [7]) and its eigenvalues can be given the parity symmetry label + or -as they are even or odd, respectively. The parity ...

  3. Prolate spheroidal coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prolate_spheroidal_coordinates

    Prolate spheroidal coordinates μ and ν for a = 1.The lines of equal values of μ and ν are shown on the xz-plane, i.e. for φ = 0.The surfaces of constant μ and ν are obtained by rotation about the z-axis, so that the diagram is valid for any plane containing the z-axis: i.e. for any φ.

  4. Riemann zeta function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_zeta_function

    for all complex s ≠ 1 implies that the zeros of the Riemann zeta function are symmetric about the real axis. Combining this symmetry with the functional equation, furthermore, one sees that the non-trivial zeros are symmetric about the critical line Re(s) = ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠. It is also known that no zeros lie on the line with real part 1.

  5. Molecular symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_symmetry

    In a symmetry group, the group elements are the symmetry operations (not the symmetry elements), and the binary combination consists of applying first one symmetry operation and then the other. An example is the sequence of a C 4 rotation about the z-axis and a reflection in the xy-plane, denoted σ(xy) C 4 .

  6. Spherical coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_coordinate_system

    In mathematics, a spherical coordinate system specifies a given point in three-dimensional space by using a distance and two angles as its three coordinates. These are the radial distance r along the line connecting the point to a fixed point called the origin; the polar angle θ between this radial line and a given polar axis; [a] and

  7. CPT symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPT_symmetry

    CPT is the only combination of C, P, and T that is observed to be an exact symmetry of nature at the fundamental level. [1] [2] The CPT theorem says that CPT symmetry holds for all physical phenomena, or more precisely, that any Lorentz invariant local quantum field theory with a Hermitian Hamiltonian must have CPT symmetry.

  8. Translational symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translational_symmetry

    Translational invariance implies that, at least in one direction, the object is infinite: for any given point p, the set of points with the same properties due to the translational symmetry form the infinite discrete set {p + na | n ∈ Z} = p + Z a. Fundamental domains are e.g. H + [0, 1] a for any hyperplane H for which a has an independent ...

  9. Magnetocrystalline anisotropy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetocrystalline_anisotropy

    If K 1 > 0, the directions of lowest energy are the ± z directions. The z axis is called the easy axis. If K 1 < 0, there is an easy plane perpendicular to the symmetry axis (the basal plane of the crystal). Many models of magnetization represent the anisotropy as uniaxial and ignore higher order terms.
