  3. Levi-Civita symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levi-Civita_symbol

    In two dimensions, the Levi-Civita symbol is defined by: = {+ (,) = (,) (,) = (,) = The values can be arranged into a 2 × 2 antisymmetric matrix: = (). Use of the two-dimensional symbol is common in condensed matter, and in certain specialized high-energy topics like supersymmetry [1] and twistor theory, [2] where it appears in the context of 2-spinors.

  4. Hartree equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hartree_equation

    In order to solve the equation of an electron in a spherical potential, Hartree first introduced atomic units to eliminate physical constants. Then he converted the Laplacian from Cartesian to spherical coordinates to show that the solution was a product of a radial function () / and a spherical harmonic with an angular quantum number , namely = (/) (,).

    Quantity (common name/s) (Common) symbol/s Defining equation SI units Dimension Number of atoms N = Number of atoms remaining at time t. N 0 = Initial number of atoms at time t = 0

  6. Ergun equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ergun_equation

    To calculate the pressure drop in a given reactor, the following equation may be deduced: = + | |. This arrangement of the Ergun equation makes clear its close relationship to the simpler Kozeny-Carman equation, which describes laminar flow of fluids across packed beds via the first term on the right hand side.

  7. Extent of reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extent_of_reaction

    In physical chemistry and chemical engineering, extent of reaction is a quantity that measures the extent to which the reaction has proceeded. Often, it refers specifically to the value of the extent of reaction when equilibrium has been reached.
