https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss%E2%80%93Manin%20connection | In mathematics, the Gauss–Manin connection is a connection on a certain vector bundle over a base space S of a family of algebraic varieties . The fibers of the vector bundle are the de Rham cohomology groups of the fibers of the family. It was introduced by for curves S and by in higher dimensions.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tether%20car | Tether cars (also commonly known as spindizzies) are model racing cars powered by miniature internal combustion engines and tethered to a central post. Unlike radio control cars, the driver has no remote control over the model's speed or steering.
Basics
Tether cars are often small (less than 1 meter in length), powe... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuning%20wrench | A tuning wrench (also called a tuning lever or tuning hammer) is a specialized socket wrench used to tune string instruments, such as the piano, harp, and hammer dulcimer, that have strings wrapped around tuning pins. Other string instruments do not require a tuning wrench because their tuning pins or pegs come with ha... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subtropical%20front | A subtropical front is a surface water mass boundary or front, which is a narrow zone of transition between air masses of contrasting density, air masses of different temperatures or different water vapour concentrates.
It is also characterized by an unforeseen change in wind direction, and speed across its surface bet... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdominal%20aortic%20plexus | The abdominal aortic plexus (not to be confused with the thoracic aortic plexus) is formed by branches derived, on either side, from the celiac plexus and ganglia, and receives filaments from some of the lumbar ganglia.
It is situated upon the sides and front of the aorta, between the origins of the superior and infer... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LM317 | The LM317 is a popular adjustable positive linear voltage regulator. It was designed by Bob Dobkin in 1976 while he worked at National Semiconductor.
The LM337 is the negative complement to the LM317, which regulates voltages below a reference. It was designed by Bob Pease, who also worked for National Semiconductor.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List%20of%20interstitial%20cells | Interstitial cell refers to any cell that lies in the spaces between the functional cells of a tissue.
Examples include:
Interstitial cell of Cajal (ICC)
Leydig cells, cells present in the male testes responsible for the production of androgen (male sex hormone)
A portion of the stroma of ovary
Certain cells in th... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beauvericin | Beauvericin is a depsipeptide with antibiotic and insecticidal effects belonging to the enniatin family. It was isolated from the fungus Beauveria bassiana, but is also produced by several other fungi, including several Fusarium species; it may therefore occur in grain (such as corn, wheat and barley) contaminated with... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxford%20Calculators | The Oxford Calculators were a group of 14th-century thinkers, almost all associated with Merton College, Oxford; for this reason they were dubbed "The Merton School". These men took a strikingly logical and mathematical approach to philosophical problems.
The key "calculators", writing in the second quarter of the 14th... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting%20scheme | The lifting scheme is a technique for both designing wavelets and performing the discrete wavelet transform (DWT). In an implementation, it is often worthwhile to merge these steps and design the wavelet filters while performing the wavelet transform. This is then called the second-generation wavelet transform. The tec... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber%20laser | A fiber laser (or fibre laser in Commonwealth English) is a laser in which the active gain medium is an optical fiber doped with rare-earth elements such as erbium, ytterbium, neodymium, dysprosium, praseodymium, thulium and holmium. They are related to doped fiber amplifiers, which provide light amplification without ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency%20comb | In optics, a frequency comb is a laser source whose spectrum consists of a series of discrete, equally spaced frequency lines. Frequency combs can be generated by a number of mechanisms, including periodic modulation (in amplitude and/or phase) of a continuous-wave laser, four-wave mixing in nonlinear media, or stabili... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NeuroNames | NeuroNames is an integrated nomenclature for structures in the brain and spinal cord of the four species most studied by neuroscientists: human, macaque, rat and mouse. It offers a standard, controlled vocabulary of common names for structures, which is suitable for unambiguous neuroanatomical indexing of information i... |
