  2. Mpemba effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mpemba_effect

    The phenomenon, when taken to mean "hot water freezes faster than cold", is difficult to reproduce or confirm because it is ill-defined. [4] Monwhea Jeng proposed a more precise wording: "There exists a set of initial parameters, and a pair of temperatures, such that given two bodies of water identical in these parameters, and differing only in initial uniform temperatures, the hot one will ...

    Erythema ab igne (Latin for 'redness from fire') EAI, also known as hot water bottle rash, [2] is a skin condition caused by long-term exposure to heat (infrared radiation). [3] Prolonged thermal radiation exposure to the skin can lead to the development of reticulated erythema , hyperpigmentation , scaling, and telangiectasias in the affected ...

  5. Defective pixel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defective_pixel

    A bright dot defect or hot pixel is a group of three sub-pixels (one pixel) all of whose transistors are "off" for TN panels or stuck "on" for MVA and PVA panels. [2] This allows all light to pass through to the RGB layer, creating a bright pixel that is always on. Another cause of bright dot may be the presence of impurities in the liquid crystal.

  6. Display motion blur - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_motion_blur

    Blur from eye tracking fast-moving objects on sample-and-hold LCD, plasma, or microdisplay. [1] [2] Resolution resampling (blur due to resizing image to fit the native resolution of the HDTV); not a motion blur. Deinterlacing by the display, and telecine processing by studios. These processes can soften images, and/or introduce motion-speed ...

  7. Acrocyanosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrocyanosis

    A medical emergency would ensue if the extremities experience prolonged periods of exposure to the cold, particularly in children and patients with poor general health. [3] However, frostbite differs from acrocyanosis because pain (via thermal nociceptors ) often accompanies the former condition, while the latter is very rarely associated with ...

  9. Cold shock response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_shock_response

    Cold shock response is a series of neurogenic cardio-respiratory responses caused by sudden immersion in cold water. In cold water immersions, such as by falling through thin ice, cold shock response is perhaps the most common cause of death. [1] Also, the abrupt contact with very cold water may cause involuntary inhalation, which, if ...
