He has made significant contributions to our understanding of waves and instabilities in plasmas, as well as their applications to astrophysical and space phenomena. Melrose has authored numerous papers and has been involved in various research initiatives related to this field.
Denis Evans by Wikipedia Bot 0
Denis Evans could refer to different individuals or contexts, depending on what you are looking for. Here are a couple of possibilities: 1. **Denis Evans (Theoretical Physicist)**: An academic with contributions to the field of physics, particularly in statistical mechanics or thermodynamics. However, specific details about his contributions and background would depend on the individual being referred to.
ISWIM by Wikipedia Bot 0
ISWIM (short for "I'm Still What I Mapped") is a programming language that was developed in the early 1970s as an experimental language for teaching and research in the field of computer science, particularly in the area of programming language design and implementation. ISWIM is notable for its influence on subsequent programming languages and its contributions to the study of functional programming. The language was introduced by Peter G. Neumark and later developed with contributions from others including Robin Milner.
David McClelland is an Australian physicist known for his contributions to the field of gravitational wave detection and astrophysics. He has been significantly involved in projects related to laser interferometry and the detection of gravitational waves, particularly through his work with large-scale observatories such as the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) and other related experiments.
Colin J. Gillespie is a statistician known for his work in various areas of statistics, including Bayesian methods and statistical modeling. He is particularly recognized for his contributions to statistical methodology and applications in fields like genetics and ecology. In addition to his research, he has been involved in teaching and mentoring in the field of statistics.
As of my last update in October 2023, there isn't widely recognized information about a person named Christopher Chantler in mainstream media or notable databases. It's possible that he could be a private individual, a professional in a specific field, or someone who has gained prominence after my last update.
Electron density by Wikipedia Bot 0
Electron density refers to the measure of the probability of an electron being found at a specific point in space within an atom or a molecule. It is often represented as a function of position and is crucial in quantum chemistry and atomic physics. The concept of electron density is fundamental in understanding the electronic structure of molecules and the distribution of electrons around nuclei.
Electron shell by Wikipedia Bot 0
An electron shell is a grouping of electrons within an atom that have similar energy levels and are located at a certain distance from the nucleus. These shells are defined by quantum mechanics and are an important aspect of atomic structure. ### Key Points about Electron Shells: 1. **Energy Levels**: Electrons are arranged in shells around the nucleus, each with a specific energy level. The shells are designated by principal quantum numbers (n = 1, 2, 3, etc.
"Name Your Own Price" is a pricing model that allows customers to suggest the price they are willing to pay for a product or service. This approach provides flexibility for consumers and can lead to greater customer satisfaction, as it empowers them to negotiate. The model gained substantial recognition through services such as Priceline.com, which allowed users to name their own price for hotel rooms and flights.
Inert-pair effect by Wikipedia Bot 0
The inert-pair effect is a phenomenon observed in the chemistry of certain heavy elements, particularly within the p-block of the periodic table. It refers to the tendency of the outermost s electrons of the heavier elements in groups 13 to 16 (especially the thallium, lead, bismuth, and polonium elements) to remain non-bonding or "inert" when these elements form compounds.
Landé g-factor by Wikipedia Bot 0
The Landé g-factor, often denoted as \( g_L \), is a dimensionless quantity that arises in the field of quantum mechanics and is used to describe the magnetic properties of atomic and subatomic particles, particularly in the context of their interaction with an external magnetic field. It provides a measure of the magnetic moment of a particle in terms of its angular momentum.
GenBank by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated +Created
The Landé interval rule is a principle used in atomic and molecular physics, specifically in the context of spectroscopic transitions and the determination of energy levels. It provides a way to estimate the intervals between energy levels of complex systems, like atoms with multiple electrons, which can be challenging to analyze due to electron-electron interactions and the configuration of electrons. The rule helps predict the positions of spectral lines in atomic spectra by considering the contributions of different electron configurations to the total angular momentum of the system.
Mirror nuclei by Wikipedia Bot 0
Mirror nuclei are pairs of atomic nuclei that have the same total number of nucleons (i.e., the same mass number) but differ in the numbers of protons and neutrons. In essence, one nucleus has more protons while the other has more neutrons. This difference allows for a unique comparison of the nuclear structure and the forces at play within the nuclei. For example, consider the pair of mirror nuclei: carbon-12 (^12C) and boron-12 (^12B).
Photonic molecule by Wikipedia Bot 0
A photonic molecule is a concept in the field of quantum optics and photonics, where the collective behavior of photons is studied in a way that mimics the properties of traditional molecules. These "molecules" do not consist of atoms in the conventional sense; instead, they are formed by the coupling of photons that are confined in systems such as photonic crystals or optical cavities.

Pinned article: ourbigbook/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.
