https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic%20filter | An elliptic filter (also known as a Cauer filter, named after Wilhelm Cauer, or as a Zolotarev filter, after Yegor Zolotarev) is a signal processing filter with equalized ripple (equiripple) behavior in both the passband and the stopband. The amount of ripple in each band is independently adjustable, and no other filte... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False%20statement | A false statement is a statement that is not true. Although the word fallacy is sometimes used as a synonym for false statement, that is not how the word is used in philosophy, mathematics, logic and most formal contexts.
A false statement does not need to be a lie. A lie is a statement that is known to be untrue and ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repressor | In molecular genetics, a repressor is a DNA- or RNA-binding protein that inhibits the expression of one or more genes by binding to the operator or associated silencers. A DNA-binding repressor blocks the attachment of RNA polymerase to the promoter, thus preventing transcription of the genes into messenger RNA. An RN... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nernst%20effect | In physics and chemistry, the Nernst effect (also termed first Nernst–Ettingshausen effect, after Walther Nernst and Albert von Ettingshausen) is a thermoelectric (or thermomagnetic) phenomenon observed when a sample allowing electrical conduction is subjected to a magnetic field and a temperature gradient normal (perp... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2%2C2%2C6%2C6-Tetramethylpiperidine | 2,2,6,6-Tetramethylpiperidine, abbreviated TMP, HTMP, or TMPH, is an organic compound of the amine class. In appearance, it is a colorless liquid and has a "fishy", amine-like odor. This amine is used in chemistry as a hindered base (hindered amine). Although TMP finds limited use per se, its derivatives are a mainsta... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telluride%20%28chemistry%29 | The telluride ion is the anion Te2− and its derivatives. It is analogous to the other chalcogenide anions, the lighter O2−, S2−, and Se2−, and the heavier Po2−.
In principle, Te2− is formed by the two-e− reduction of tellurium. The redox potential is −1.14 V.
Te(s) + 2 e− ↔ Te2−
Although solutions of the telluride dia... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamming%20bound | In mathematics and computer science, in the field of coding theory, the Hamming bound is a limit on the parameters of an arbitrary block code: it is also known as the sphere-packing bound or the volume bound from an interpretation in terms of packing balls in the Hamming metric into the space of all possible words. It... |
