https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lauder%20William%20Jones | Lauder William Jones (July 22, 1869 – December 28, 1960) was an American chemist, born at New Richmond, Ohio. He was graduated at Williams College in 1892, and received his Ph. D. from the University of Chicago in 1897. In the same year, he became an assistant in chemistry at Chicago, where he remained until 1907. F... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International%20Max%20Planck%20Research%20School%20for%20Molecular%20Biology | International Max Planck Research School for Molecular Biology, also known as IMPRS for Molecular Biology, is a 1.5 years MSc program or a 4-year PhD program. The first year in both graduate tracks is the same and the students are studying together. The curriculum consists of intensive theoretical lectures covering all... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free%20molecular%20flow | Free molecular flow describes the fluid dynamics of gas where the mean free path of the molecules is larger than the size of the chamber or of the object under test. For tubes/objects of the size of several cm, this means pressures well below 10−3 mbar. This is also called the regime of high vacuum, or even ultra-high ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varrentrapp%20reaction | The Varrentrapp reaction, also named Varrentrapp degradation, is a name reaction in the organic chemistry. It is named after Franz Varrentrapp, who described this reaction in 1840. The reaction entails the degradation of an unsaturated carboxylic acid into a saturated acid with two fewer carbon atoms and acetic acid. ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packing%20dimension | In mathematics, the packing dimension is one of a number of concepts that can be used to define the dimension of a subset of a metric space. Packing dimension is in some sense dual to Hausdorff dimension, since packing dimension is constructed by "packing" small open balls inside the given subset, whereas Hausdorff di... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographic%20gravitation | Demographic gravitation is a concept of "social physics", introduced by Princeton University astrophysicist John Quincy Stewart in 1947. It is an attempt to use equations and notions of classical physics, such as gravity, to seek simplified insights and even laws of demographic behaviour for large numbers of human bein... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WVA%20number | WVA numbers (Waren-Vertriebs-Artikel-Nummern) are a reference and assignment system for brake linings, clutch facings, brake shoes and other friction materials which will especially be used in road vehicles but also in mechanical engineering. The WVA numbering system has been developed by the "VRI-Verband der Reibbelag... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pre-measure | In mathematics, a pre-measure is a set function that is, in some sense, a precursor to a bona fide measure on a given space. Indeed, one of the fundamental theorems in measure theory states that a pre-measure can be extended to a measure.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid%20%28golf%29 | A hybrid is a type of club used in the sport of golf with a design borrowing from both irons and woods while differing from both. The name "hybrid" comes from genetics to denote a mixture of two different species with desirable characteristics of both, and the term here has been generalized, combining the familiar swin... |
