Albert Einstein was a prolific physicist whose work changed the landscape of modern physics. He published numerous scientific papers throughout his career. Here is a list of some of his most significant publications: 1. **Princeton University Library**: Many of Einstein's papers can be found archived at the Princeton University Library, which houses the Einstein Papers Project.
A multiple-emitter transistor is a type of transistor that has more than one emitter terminal. This design allows it to be used in applications where multiple signals need to be amplified simultaneously or where multiple input sources can be connected to the same transistor. Despite its name, the multiple-emitter transistor is typically just a variation of a standard bipolar junction transistor (BJT) or field-effect transistor (FET).
"Biophysics stubs" typically refers to short or incomplete articles related to biophysics on platforms like Wikipedia, where the term "stub" indicates that the article needs to be expanded with more information. Biophysics itself is an interdisciplinary field that combines principles of physics and biology to understand biological systems. In the context of Wikipedia, stubs might cover various topics within biophysics, such as specific theories, methods, techniques, or notable figures in the field.
In the context of Wikipedia and other collaborative platforms, a "stub" is a term used to describe an article that is incomplete and lacks sufficient detail. Geophysics stubs refer specifically to articles related to geophysics that require expansion or additional information. Geophysics itself is the study of the Earth using quantitative physical methods, encompassing aspects like the Earth's magnetic and gravitational fields, seismic activity, and heat flow, among others.
In Wikipedia terminology, a "stub" is a short or incomplete article that provides minimal information on a subject and serves as a starting point for further expansion. A "physical chemistry stub" would refer specifically to an entry related to physical chemistry that lacks comprehensive coverage of the topic. Physical chemistry itself is a branch of chemistry that deals with the physical properties and behavior of chemical systems and their components.
Nuclear physics is the branch of physics that deals with the study of atomic nuclei, their constituents (protons and neutrons), and the interactions that occur between them. It encompasses a variety of topics, including: 1. **Structure of the Nucleus**: Understanding the arrangement of protons and neutrons within an atomic nucleus, including models that describe nuclear stability and the forces that hold the nucleus together (strong nuclear force).
"Quantum physics stubs" typically refers to short, incomplete articles or entries related to quantum physics that are part of a larger database or collection, often seen in online encyclopedias, such as Wikipedia. These stubs provide basic information but are recognized as needing more detailed content, references, or expansion. The stub can cover various topics within quantum physics, such as key concepts, fundamental theories, notable experiments, or important physicists in the field.
In the context of Wikipedia, a "stub" is a term used to describe a short or incomplete article that provides only basic information on a particular topic. Theoretical physics stubs would refer to Wikipedia articles related to theoretical physics that are still in a preliminary state and need further expansion and detail. These stubs might cover specific theories, concepts, or areas of research within theoretical physics but lack comprehensive coverage or depth.
The Coherent Potential Approximation (CPA) is a theoretical framework used in condensed matter physics to describe the properties of disordered materials, particularly systems with random disorder, such as alloy phases, where different types of atoms or ions occupy certain sites in a lattice. The main idea behind the CPA is to treat the disorder in the material in an averaged way.
A first-order fluid, also known as a Newtonian fluid, is a type of fluid that adheres to Newton's law of viscosity. This means that the fluid's shear stress is directly proportional to the shear rate (or velocity gradient) at a given temperature and pressure. Mathematically, this relationship is represented as: \[ \tau = \mu \frac{du}{dy} \] Where: - \(\tau\) is the shear stress.
An ideally hard superconductor refers to a type of superconductor that exhibits high thermal, chemical, and mechanical stability while maintaining its superconducting properties. The term "hard" in this context often implies that the material is not easily degraded by environmental factors such as temperature fluctuations, magnetic fields, or impurities.
In the context of matter, an "interface" refers to the boundary or surface that separates two different phases or states of matter. This could include, but is not limited to, the boundaries between: 1. **Solids and liquids**: For example, the surface of a glass of water. 2. **Liquids and gases**: Such as the surface of a lake where water meets air.
Magnetorheological finishing (MRF) is a polishing process that utilizes magnetorheological fluids to achieve high precision surface finishing of materials. Magnetorheological fluids are suspensions containing micron-sized magnetically responsive particles, typically mixed with a carrier fluid. When subjected to a magnetic field, these fluids undergo a change in viscosity and behavior, allowing for manipulation of the fluid's properties.
In the context of signal processing and communications, a modulation sphere is not a widely recognized or standard term. However, it may refer to a conceptual tool used to visualize and analyze modulation schemes in signal transmission. In communications, modulation is the process of varying one or more properties of a carrier signal in order to transmit information.
Pair potential refers to a mathematical function used in computational physics and chemistry to describe the interaction energy between two particles as a function of their separation distance. It is commonly employed in molecular dynamics simulations and statistical mechanics to model systems at the atomic and molecular level. The pair potential is often denoted as \(V(r)\), where \(r\) is the distance between two interacting particles.
Phase conjugation is a process in optics where a wavefront is reversed in both its phase and wave vector, essentially creating a "mirror image" of the original wavefront. This technique can be thought of as creating a time-reversed version of a wave, allowing it to retrace its path back to the source.
Robophysics is an interdisciplinary field that combines elements of robotics and physics, focusing on the application of physical principles to the design, control, and operation of robotic systems. This area of study seeks to understand how physical forces and constraints affect robotic movement and functionality, enabling the development of more efficient, effective, and capable robots.

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!
We have two killer features:
  1. 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-calculus
    Articles 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.

  2. local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:
    This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
