In theoretical physics, a twisted sector is a subspace of the full Hilbert space of closed string states in a particular theory over a (good) orbifold. In the first quantized formalism of string theory (or in two-dimensional conformal field theory) the target space is an orbifold M/G if the observables of the string a...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular%20distance
Angular distance or angular separation, also known as apparent distance or apparent separation, denoted , is the angle between the two sightlines, or between two point objects as viewed from an observer. Angular distance appears in mathematics (in particular geometry and trigonometry) and all natural sciences (e.g., k...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yang%E2%80%93Baxter%20equation
In physics, the Yang–Baxter equation (or star–triangle relation) is a consistency equation which was first introduced in the field of statistical mechanics. It depends on the idea that in some scattering situations, particles may preserve their momentum while changing their quantum internal states. It states that a mat...

The Biophysical Society is an international scientific society whose purpose is to lead the development and dissemination of knowledge in biophysics. Founded in 1958, the Society currently consists of over 7,500 members in academia, government, and industry. Although the Society is based in the United States, it is a...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotational%E2%80%93vibrational%20coupling
In physics, rotational–vibrational coupling occurs when the rotation frequency of a system is close to or identical to a natural internal vibration frequency. The animation on the right shows ideal motion, with the force exerted by the spring and the distance from the center of rotation increasing together linearly wit...
