Quantum advantage Updated +Created
Similar to quantum supremacy, but add the goal that the computation must be useful, i.e. make money or solve some open mathematical problem, Ciro Santilli's wife was quite excited about the possibility of finding some counter examples in number theory with quantum computers.
Samurai cinema Updated +Created
Chanbara (チャンバラ).
Those movies are "all the same". A quasi lone superhuman samurai with a good inside but painful problems helping out random people, mostly villagers in trouble and bitches in debt.

Spark-gap transmitter Updated +Created
The first type of device that allowed sending Morse code without wires, as opposed to the wired electrical telegraph that previously existed.
Naval communications was one of the first major applications, as you can't have wires on boats!
Wireless voice transmission came about with modulation.

Special orthogonal group Updated +Created
Like orthogonal group but without reflections. So it is a "special case" of the orthogonal group.
This is a subgroup of both the orthogonal group and the special linear group.
Specific values of the Busy beaver function Updated +Created
The following things come to mind when you look into research in this area, especially the search for BB(5) which was hard but doable:
Type of radioactive decay Updated +Created
Modulation Updated +Created
Modulation basically means encoding data on a carrier wave.
Image that we are at a point in history where spark-gap transmitters can send Morse code.
But now people want to send voice. How to do it?
It would not be practical without modulation: Why can't you send voice without modulation?
Physics Travel Guide Updated +Created
DokuWiki about physics, mostly/fully written by Jakob Schwichtenberg and therefore focusing on particle physics, although registration might be open to all.
Radio transmitter and receiver Updated +Created
Allotrope Updated +Created
Single chemical element, single phase (usually solid), but different 3D structures.
The prototypical examples are the allotropes of carbon such as diamond vs graphite.
Four-terminal sensing Updated +Created
Normalized DFT Updated +Created
There are actually two possible definitions for the DFT:

Laplace's equation Updated +Created
Like a heat equation but for functions without time dependence, space-only.
TODO confirm: does the solution of the heat equation always converge to the solution of the Laplace equation as time tends to infinity?
In one dimension, the Laplace equation is boring as it is just a straight line since the second derivative must be 0. That also matches our intuition of the limit solution of the heat equation.

Time dependent boundary condition Updated +Created
Most commonly, boundary conditions such as the Dirichlet boundary condition are taken to be fixed values in time.
But it also makes sense to think about cases where those values vary in time.
