Severe Weather 101: Hail Basics by NOAA 2026-10-31
National Severe Storms Laboratory explanation of hail growth, updraft support and ice layering. It explicitly rejects treating the layers simply as a record of repeated up-and-down cycles.
Dew and Frost Development by Jeff Haby 2026-10-31
National Weather Service training compilation crediting Jeff Haby. The frost sections distinguish deposition from frozen dew and explain why radiatively cooled surfaces may freeze while the standard-height air observation remains above freezing.
What Is a Waterspout? by NOAA 2026-10-31
The sections on haloes and parhelia identify hexagonal ice crystals and the approximately minimum angular scale.

National Centers for Environmental Information product description and data-access page. The conventional 30-year products include daily, monthly and annual statistics; the reference interval is part of the statistic.
Volume II, chapter VI, §442, contrasts Siméon Denis Poisson's induced molecular magnetization with Wilhelm Eduard Weber's pre-existing molecular magnets. A publisher transcription of that section is available at www.cambridge.org/core/books/abs/treatise-on-electricity-and-magnetism/webers-theory-of-magnetic-induction/672E4931AABCC94ED48AE9B952B85B48.
By John Lekner. Proceedings of the Royal Society A 468, pp. 2829–2848; published online 23 May 2012. The paper's exact result concerns finite conducting spheres. It is distinct from the leading small-sphere model used in charged conducting sphere in a slowly varying electric field.
By Nicole Fan, Chunhui Zhou and Elina Myagkaya. Published 4 October 2021 in Scientific Reports 11, article 19686. The introduction distinguishes mineral–organic layer interference from surface-groove diffraction; equation 1 gives a repeating-layer interference condition.
Edited by William Crookes. The linked Chatto & Windus reprint is dated 1894. The 1860 edition is separately catalogued by the Biodiversity Heritage Library: www.biodiversitylibrary.org/bibliography/29969. Lecture VI includes carbon-point electrical light and a heated platinum bridge.
On the Liquefaction and Solidification of Bodies Generally Existing as Gases by Michael Faraday 2026-10-31
Philosophical Transactions 135, pp. 155–172, with additional remarks on pp. 172–177. The reported cooling bath and alcohol-thermometer limitations occur on printed p. 158. Pressure and temperature readings there are historical experimental indications.
WMO-No. 8, seventh edition. Part I, chapter 3 describes atmospheric-pressure measurement and mercury-barometer corrections.
National Bureau of Standards Monograph 8, issued 20 May 1960. Title-page authors: W. G. Brombacher, D. P. Johnson and J. L. Cross. Sections 5.1–5.3 distinguish adjustable and fixed cisterns; sections 8–10 treat capillarity, temperature and gravity corrections.

The Heisenberg Representation of Quantum Computers by Daniel Gottesman Created 2026-10-24 Updated 2026-10-31
Primary preprint record and full paper. Section 3 defines the Clifford group as the normalizer of the Pauli group; Table 1 gives the generator conjugations used to track Clifford circuits. The preprint was submitted on 1 July 1998 and the conference contribution was published in 1999, preceding the examination.
Official datasheet: Texas Instruments, SCHS032D. Section 8.2 specifies the JK flip-flop state changes. The July 2021 document revision postdates the sitting; it corroborates the established device truth table rather than supplying a later examination convention.
