  2. Mahalanobis distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahalanobis_distance

    Mahalanobis distance and leverage are often used to detect outliers, especially in the development of linear regression models. A point that has a greater Mahalanobis distance from the rest of the sample population of points is said to have higher leverage since it has a greater influence on the slope or coefficients of the regression equation.

  3. Mitochondrial DNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitochondrial_DNA

    Mitochondrial DNA is the small circular chromosome found inside mitochondria. These organelles, found in all eukaryotic cells, are the powerhouse of the cell. [1] The mitochondria, and thus mitochondrial DNA, are passed exclusively from mother to offspring through the egg cell.

  4. Mean free path - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_free_path

    whose solution is known as Beer–Lambert law and has the form = /, where x is the distance traveled by the beam through the target, and I 0 is the beam intensity before it entered the target; ℓ is called the mean free path because it equals the mean distance traveled by a beam particle before being stopped.

  5. Förster resonance energy transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Förster_resonance_energy...

    The inverse sixth-power distance dependence of Förster resonance energy transfer was experimentally confirmed by Wilchek, Edelhoch and Brand [26] using tryptophyl peptides. Stryer , Haugland and Yguerabide [ 27 ] [ citation needed ] [ 28 ] also experimentally demonstrated the theoretical dependence of Förster resonance energy transfer on the ...

  6. Atomic force microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_force_microscopy

    The AFM has been applied to problems in a wide range of disciplines of the natural sciences, including solid-state physics, semiconductor science and technology, molecular engineering, polymer chemistry and physics, surface chemistry, molecular biology, cell biology, and medicine.

  7. AQA Anthology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AQA_Anthology

    The 2004 AQA Anthology was a collection of poems and short texts. The anthology was split into several sections covering poems from other cultures, the poetry of Seamus Heaney , [ 4 ] Gillian Clarke , Carol Ann Duffy and Simon Armitage , and a bank of pre-1914 poems.

  8. Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_chromatography–mass...

    For the analysis of volatile compounds, a purge and trap (P&T) concentrator system may be used to introduce samples. The target analytes are extracted by mixing the sample with water and purge with inert gas (e.g. Nitrogen gas) into an airtight chamber, this is known as purging or sparging.

  9. Euclidean distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_distance

    That is (unlike road distance with one-way streets) the distance between two points does not depend on which of the two points is the start and which is the destination. [11] It is positive, meaning that the distance between every two distinct points is a positive number, while the distance from any point to itself is zero. [11]
