inert core
Materials science; Material physics
Nucleons in the nucleus which are inactive, except for providing binding energy to the valence (or outermost) nucleons.
electron cyclotron frequency
Materials science; Material physics
Number of times per second that an electron orbits a magnetic field line. The frequency is completely determined by the strength of the field and the electron's charge-to-mass ...
hairpin vortices
Materials science; Material physics
Observed in boundary layers. They have an axis in the transverse direction with legs near the wall and a head and neck that extend away from the wall. They have been associated ...
orifice plate
Materials science; Material physics
Obstruction-type meter used in pipe flow to determine the flow rate by measuring the pressure drop across a sudden contraction and expansion.
Bremsstrahlung radiation
Materials science; Material physics
Occurs in plasma when electrons interact ("collide") with the Coulomb fields of ions; the resulting deflection of the electrons causes them to radiate.
Schrödinger representation
Materials science; Material physics
Often used for the Schrödinger picture.
global symmetry
Materials science; Material physics
One independent of spacetime, i.e., the system is symmetric under the same symmetry operation at each space-time point.
