Psychopolitical validity is a concept that merges psychological insights with political theory to evaluate how personal experiences and identities intersect with broader political contexts. It emphasizes understanding how individual psychological factors—such as emotions, motivations, and beliefs—inform and are informed by political beliefs and actions. The term reflects a recognition of the interplay between the psyche and political systems, suggesting that personal experiences of oppression, identity formation, and social interactions can shape political attitudes and behaviors.
In philosophy, the term "state of affairs" refers to the way the world is at a particular time, often in relation to the existence or non-existence of certain facts, conditions, or situations. The concept is primarily associated with the fields of metaphysics and philosophy of language. A state of affairs comprises a specific arrangement of objects and their properties, as well as the relationships that hold between them.
Spin structure is a concept from topology and theoretical physics that arises in the context of manifold theory, particularly in relation to spin manifolds. In mathematics, a spin structure is typically defined on a manifold that enables the definition of spinors, which are mathematical objects that generalize the notion of complex numbers and vectors.
Measured particle speeds with a rotation barrel! OMG, pre electromagnetism equipment?

This is not a truly "fundamental" constant of nature like say the speed of light or the Planck constant.
Rather, it is just a definition of our Kelvin temperature scale, linking average microscopic energy to our macroscopic temperature scale.
The way to think about that link is, at 1 Kelvin, each particle has average energy:per degree of freedom.
For an ideal monatomic gas, say helium, there are 3 degrees of freedom. so each helium atom has average energy:
Another conclusion is that this defines temperature as being proportional to the total energy. E.g. if we had 1 helium atom at 2 K then we would have about energy, 3 K and so on.
This energy is of course just an average: some particles have more, and others less, following the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution.
chemistry.stackexchange.com/questions/7696/how-do-i-distinguish-between-internal-energy-and-enthalpy/7700#7700 has a good insight:
To summarize, internal energy and enthalpy are used to estimate the thermodynamic potential of the system. There are other such estimates, like the Gibbs free energy G. Which one you choose is determined by the conditions and how easy it is to determine pressure and volume changes.
Considering e.g. Newton's laws of motion, you take a system that is a function of time , e.g. the position of many point particles, and then you reverse the speeds of all particles, then is a solution to that.
Two-dimensional Yang–Mills theory is a gauge theory that generalizes the concept of Yang–Mills theories to two spatial dimensions. In general, Yang–Mills theories are constructed from a gauge field that transforms under a symmetry group (the gauge group), and they play a crucial role in modern theoretical physics, particularly in quantum field theory and the Standard Model of particle physics.
The list of nuclear incidents in Japan includes various accidents, leaks, and problems related to nuclear power plants, research facilities, and other nuclear-related activities. Here are some significant incidents: 1. **Tokaimura Nuclear Accident (1999)**: A criticality accident occurred at a uranium processing facility in Tokaimura, Ibaraki Prefecture, resulting in two deaths and several others exposed to radiation. It was the first serious nuclear accident in Japan since the start of the nuclear power program.
The Jupiter trojans are a group of asteroids that share Jupiter's orbit around the Sun, located at the L4 and L5 Lagrange points, which are approximately 60 degrees ahead of and behind Jupiter in its orbit. The ones denoted as part of the "Greek camp" typically refer to those that are positioned at the L4 point.
The Jupiter trojans are a group of asteroids that share Jupiter's orbit around the Sun, clustering around the two stable Lagrange points (L4 and L5) which are 60 degrees ahead and behind Jupiter in its orbit, respectively. The List of Jupiter Trojans (Trojan camp) from 300001 to 400000 includes numerous numbered asteroids in that range.
The list of minor planets from 135001 to 136000 includes various asteroids that have been assigned numerical designations. This is part of the systematic cataloging of small celestial bodies within our solar system, primarily focusing on those that have been discovered and confirmed. Each minor planet is typically named after a person, place, or concept related to science, culture, or history.
The list of minor planets numbered 168001 to 169000 includes a range of asteroids and other small celestial bodies that have been assigned numbers by the Minor Planet Center. Each of these minor planets has its own unique characteristics, orbits, and sometimes names. The list typically includes details such as their designation numbers, discovery dates, and names (if applicable).
Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project
Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculusArticles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
- a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
- a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.Figure 1. Screenshot of the "Derivative" topic page.
