https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amnesic%20shellfish%20poisoning | Amnesic shellfish poisoning (ASP) is an illness caused by consumption of shellfish that contain the marine biotoxin called domoic acid. In mammals, including humans, domoic acid acts as a neurotoxin, causing permanent short-term memory loss, brain damage, and death in severe cases.
This toxin is produced naturally by... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eulerian%20number | In combinatorics, the Eulerian number is the number of permutations of the numbers 1 to in which exactly elements are greater than the previous element (permutations with "ascents").
Leonhard Euler investigated them and associated polynomials in his 1755 book Institutiones calculi differentialis.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructive%20set%20theory | Axiomatic constructive set theory is an approach to mathematical constructivism following the program of axiomatic set theory.
The same first-order language with "" and "" of classical set theory is usually used, so this is not to be confused with a constructive types approach.
On the other hand, some constructive theo... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute%20value%20%28algebra%29 | In algebra, an absolute value (also called a valuation, magnitude, or norm, although "norm" usually refers to a specific kind of absolute value on a field) is a function which measures the "size" of elements in a field or integral domain. More precisely, if D is an integral domain, then an absolute value is any mapping... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NLTSS | The Network Livermore Timesharing System (NLTSS, also sometimes the New Livermore Time Sharing System) is an operating system that was actively developed at Lawrence Livermore Laboratory (now Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory) from 1979 until about 1988, though it continued to run production applications until 199... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium%20lactate%20gluconate | Calcium lactate gluconate, also known as GLOCAL, is a soluble salt of calcium, lactic acid and gluconic acid used in effervescent calcium tablets. Its chemical formula is Ca5(C3H5O3)6·(C6H11O7)4·2H2O. It was first developed by Sandoz, Switzerland. Calcium lactate gluconate is used in the functional and fortified food ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia | Wikipedia is a free-content online encyclopedia written and maintained by a community of volunteers, collectively known as Wikipedians, through open collaboration and using a wiki-based editing system called MediaWiki. Wikipedia is the largest and most-read reference work in history, and has consistently been one of th... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain%20of%20trust | In computer security, a chain of trust is established by validating each component of hardware and software from the end entity up to the root certificate. It is intended to ensure that only trusted software and hardware can be used while still retaining flexibility.
Introduction
A chain of trust is designed to allow... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belt%20transect | Belt transects are used in biology, more specifically in biostatistics, to estimate the distribution of organisms in relation to a certain area, such as the seashore or a meadow.
The belt transect method is similar to the line transect method but gives information on abundance as well as presence, or absence of specie... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pauli%20group | In physics and mathematics, the Pauli group on 1 qubit is the 16-element matrix group consisting of the 2 × 2 identity matrix and all of the Pauli matrices
,
together with the products of these matrices with the factors and :
.
The Pauli group is generated by the Pauli matrices, and like them it is named after Wolfg... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stabilizer%20code | The theory of quantum error correction plays a prominent role in the practical realization and engineering of
quantum computing and quantum communication devices. The first quantum
error-correcting codes are strikingly similar to classical block codes in their
operation and performance. Quantum error-correcting codes... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basal%20plate%20%28placenta%29 | During pregnancy changes in the placenta involve the disappearance of the greater portion of the stratum compactum, but the deeper part of this layer persists and is condensed to form what is known as the basal plate. Between this plate and the uterine muscular fibres are the stratum spongiosum and the boundary layer; ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stomatognathic%20system | The stomatognathic system is an anatomical system comprising the teeth, jaws, and associated soft tissues. It was formerly called the stomognathic system.
Stomatognathic diseases are treated by dentists, maxillofacial surgeons, ear, nose, and throat specialists, speech therapists, occupational therapists, myofunction... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightweight%20software%20test%20automation | Lightweight software test automation is the process of creating and using relatively short and simple computer programs, called lightweight test harnesses, designed to test a software system. Lightweight test automation harnesses are not tied to a particular programming language but are most often implemented with the ... |
