https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backlash%20%28engineering%29 | In mechanical engineering, backlash, sometimes called lash, play, or slop, is a clearance or lost motion in a mechanism caused by gaps between the parts. It can be defined as "the maximum distance or angle through which any part of a mechanical system may be moved in one direction without applying appreciable force or ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category%20of%20manifolds | In mathematics, the category of manifolds, often denoted Manp, is the category whose objects are manifolds of smoothness class Cp and whose morphisms are p-times continuously differentiable maps. This is a category because the composition of two Cp maps is again continuous and of class Cp.
One is often interested only... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean%20Beguin | Jean Beguin (1550–1620) was an iatrochemist noted for his 1610 Tyrocinium Chymicum (Begin Chemistry) (Digital edition), which many consider to be one of the first chemistry textbooks. In the 1615 edition of his textbook, Beguin made the first-ever chemical equation or rudimentary reaction diagrams, showing the results... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant-Q%20transform | In mathematics and signal processing, the constant-Q transform and variable-Q transform, simply known as CQT and VQT, transforms a data series to the frequency domain. It is related to the Fourier transform and very closely related to the complex Morlet wavelet transform. Its design is suited for musical representation... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual%20cone%20and%20polar%20cone | Dual cone and polar cone are closely related concepts in convex analysis, a branch of mathematics.
Dual cone
In a vector space
The dual cone C of a subset C in a linear space X over the reals, e.g. Euclidean space Rn, with dual space X is the set
where is the duality pairing between X and X, i.e. .
C is always a... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic%20mirror%20point | In astrophysics, a magnetic mirror point is a point where the motion of a charged particle trapped in a magnetic field (such as the (approximately) dipole field of the Earth) reverses its direction. More precisely, it is the point where the projection of the particle's velocity vector in the direction of the field ve... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J.%20R.%20Partington | James Riddick Partington (30 June 1886 – 9 October 1965) was a British chemist and historian of chemistry who published multiple books and articles in scientific magazines. His most famous works were An Advanced Treatise on Physical Chemistry (five volumes) and A History of Chemistry (four volumes), for which he receiv... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burgers%20vector | In materials science, the Burgers vector, named after Dutch physicist Jan Burgers, is a vector, often denoted as , that represents the magnitude and direction of the lattice distortion resulting from a dislocation in a crystal lattice.
The vector's magnitude and direction is best understood when the dislocation-bearin... |
