Electron capture ionization is the ionization of a gas phase atom or molecule by attachment of an electron to create an ion of the form A − {\displaystyle {\ce {A^-}}} . The reaction is A + e − → M A − {\displaystyle {\ce {A + e^- ->A^-}}} where the M over the arrow denotes that to conserve energy and momentum a third ...

A magnetohydrodynamic accelerator is an MHD converter that imparts motion to an electrically conductive fluid initially at rest, using cross electric current and magnetic field both applied within the fluid. MHD propulsion has been mostly tested with models of ships and submarines in seawater. Studies are also ongoing ...

In a series RLC circuit at resonance, the current is limited only by the resistance of the circuit I = V R . {\displaystyle I={\frac {V}{R}}\,.} If R is small, consisting only of the inductor winding resistance say, then this current will be large. It will drop a voltage across the inductor of V L = V R ω 0 L .

Typically during a cue, the operator sets the next scene. Then the operator makes the transition between the scenes using the cross-fader. Preset boards are not as prevalent since the advent of digital memory consoles, which can store scenes digitally, and are generally much less cumbersome but more expensive than pres...

In economics, one may relax the axiom of antisymmetry, using preorders (generally total preorders) instead of partial orders; the notion analogous to maximal element is very similar, but different terminology is used, as detailed below. In consumer theory the consumption space is some set X {\displaystyle X} , usually ...

The gallop is the fastest gait of the horse, averaging about 40 to 48 kilometres per hour (25 to 30 mph). The speed of the canter varies between 16 and 27 kilometres per hour (10 and 17 mph) depending on the length of the horse's stride. A variation of the canter, seen in western riding, is called a lope, and is genera...

C7 Esther as an evolutionary step after C3 Nehemiah, in which VIA / Centaur followed their traditional approach of balancing performance against a constrained transistor / power budget. The cornerstone of the C3 series chips' design philosophy has been that even a relatively simple in-order scalar core can offer reason...

EDF had estimated that building six EPR2 nuclear reactors would cost at least €46 billion. A Court of Audit report concluded that EDF is no longer able to finance EPR2 construction on its own, so financing and profitability issues need to be resolved. The audit office requires that EDF ensure the financing and profitab...

Project Coast was a 1980s top-secret chemical and biological weapons (CBW) program instituted by the apartheid-era government of South Africa. Project Coast was the successor to a limited postwar CBW program, which mainly produced the lethal agents CX powder and mustard gas; as well as non-lethal tear gas for riot cont...
