A configuration state function (CSF), is a symmetry-adapted linear combination of Slater determinants. It is constructed to have the same quantum numbers as the wavefunction, Ψ {\displaystyle \Psi } , of the system being studied. In the method of configuration interaction, the wavefunction can be expressed as a linear ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Configuration_state_function |
The common rifling twist rate for this cartridge is 240 mm (1 in 9.45 in), 4 grooves, Ø lands = 7.89 mm, Ø grooves = 8.20 mm, land width = 4.40 mm and the primer type is large rifle. According to the official C.I.P. rulings, the 8×60mm S can handle up to 405.00 MPa (58,740 psi) Pmax piezo pressure. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/8×60mm_S |
Ambler's ownership was the longest of any owner during the most historically significant period; as a result, the station was known as Ambler's longer than by any other name.

More vital systems are routed directly through the FWCs such that failures in them can still be detected even with the loss of both SDACs. The whole system can continue to operate even with a failure of one SDAC and one FWC. Failures are classed by importance ranging from level 1 failures to level 3 failures. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_Centralised_Aircraft_Monitor |
With the Cold War having ended, the BBC and British Telecom developed the National Attack Warning System in 2003. This system was able to warn by television, radio and telephone (the latter only in some areas) of an impending attack using existing infrastructure. The BBC was capable of doing so within ten minutes using... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wartime_Broadcasting_Service |

Its effects have been observed and recorded; however the reason behind its use as opposed to full collapse fusion is still being explored. It has been speculated that kiss-and-run is often employed to conserve scarce vesicular resources as well as being utilized to respond to high-frequency inputs. Experiments have sho... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synaptic_vesicle |
