https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van%20Deemter%20equation | The van Deemter equation in chromatography, named for Jan van Deemter, relates the variance per unit length of a separation column to the linear mobile phase velocity by considering physical, kinetic, and thermodynamic properties of a separation. These properties include pathways within the column, diffusion (axial and... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trudinger%27s%20theorem | In mathematical analysis, Trudinger's theorem or the Trudinger inequality (also sometimes called the Moser–Trudinger inequality) is a result of functional analysis on Sobolev spaces. It is named after Neil Trudinger (and Jürgen Moser).
It provides an inequality between a certain Sobolev space norm and an Orlicz space ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transudate | Transudate is extravascular fluid with low protein content and a low specific gravity (< 1.012). It has low nucleated cell counts (less than 500 to 1000 /microliter) and the primary cell types are mononuclear cells: macrophages, lymphocytes and mesothelial cells. For instance, an ultrafiltrate of blood plasma is transu... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static%20mixer | A static mixer is a precision engineered device for the continuous mixing of fluid materials, without moving components. Normally the fluids to be mixed are liquid, but static mixers can also be used to mix gas streams, disperse gas into liquid or blend immiscible liquids. The energy needed for mixing comes from a los... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Descemet%27s%20membrane | Descemet's membrane (or the Descemet membrane) is the basement membrane that lies between the corneal proper substance, also called stroma, and the endothelial layer of the cornea. It is composed of different kinds of collagen (Type IV and VIII) than the stroma. The endothelial layer is located at the posterior of the... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHOP%20%28chemotherapy%29 | CHOP is the acronym for a chemotherapy regimen used in the treatment of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. CHOP consists of:
Cyclophosphamide, an alkylating agent which damages DNA by binding to it and causing the formation of cross-links
(also called doxorubicin or adriamycin), an intercalating agent which damages DNA by inser... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penrose%20graphical%20notation | In mathematics and physics, Penrose graphical notation or tensor diagram notation is a (usually handwritten) visual depiction of multilinear functions or tensors proposed by Roger Penrose in 1971. A diagram in the notation consists of several shapes linked together by lines.
The notation widely appears in modern quan... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Added%20mass | In fluid mechanics, added mass or virtual mass is the inertia added to a system because an accelerating or decelerating body must move (or deflect) some volume of surrounding fluid as it moves through it. Added mass is a common issue because the object and surrounding fluid cannot occupy the same physical space simulta... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belling-Lee%20connector | The Belling-Lee connector (also type 9,52, but largely only in the context of its specification, IEC 61169, Part 2: Radio-frequency coaxial connector of type 9,52) is commonly used in Europe, parts of South-East Asia, and Australia, to connect coaxial cables with each other and with terrestrial VHF/UHF roof antennas, a... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycogen%20storage%20disease%20type%20IV | Glycogen storage disease type IV (GSD IV), or Andersen's Disease, is a form of glycogen storage disease, which is caused by an inborn error of metabolism. It is the result of a mutation in the GBE1 gene, which causes a defect in the glycogen branching enzyme. Therefore, glycogen is not made properly and abnormal glycog... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kolmogorov%27s%20inequality | In probability theory, Kolmogorov's inequality is a so-called "maximal inequality" that gives a bound on the probability that the partial sums of a finite collection of independent random variables exceed some specified bound.
Statement of the inequality
Let X1, ..., Xn : Ω → R be independent random variables defined ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verma%20module | Verma modules, named after Daya-Nand Verma, are objects in the representation theory of Lie algebras, a branch of mathematics.
Verma modules can be used in the classification of irreducible representations of a complex semisimple Lie algebra. Specifically, although Verma modules themselves are infinite dimensional, qu... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lie%27s%20theorem | In mathematics, specifically the theory of Lie algebras, Lie's theorem states that, over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, if is a finite-dimensional representation of a solvable Lie algebra, then there's a flag of invariant subspaces of with , meaning that for each and i.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycogen%20storage%20disease%20type%20III | Glycogen storage disease type III (GSD III) is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder and inborn error of metabolism (specifically of carbohydrates) characterized by a deficiency in glycogen debranching enzymes.
It is also known as Cori's disease in honor of the 1947 Nobel laureates Carl Cori and Gerty Cori. Other n... |
