https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common%20tendinous%20ring | The common tendinous ring, also known as the annulus of Zinn, or annular tendon, is a ring of fibrous tissue surrounding the optic nerve at its entrance at the apex of the orbit. It is the common origin of the four recti muscles of the group of extraocular muscles.
It can be used to divide the regions of the superior ... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GlueX | GlueX is a particle physics experiment located at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (JLab) accelerator in Newport News, Virginia. Its primary purpose is to better understand the nature of confinement in quantum chromodynamics (QCD) by identifying a spectrum of hybrid and exotic mesons generated by the ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed%20measure | In mathematics, signed measure is a generalization of the concept of (positive) measure by allowing the set function to take negative values, i.e., to acquire sign.
Definition
There are two slightly different concepts of a signed measure, depending on whether or not one allows it to take infinite values. Signed meas... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hahn%20decomposition%20theorem | In mathematics, the Hahn decomposition theorem, named after the Austrian mathematician Hans Hahn, states that for any measurable space and any signed measure defined on the -algebra , there exist two -measurable sets, and , of such that:
and .
For every such that , one has , i.e., is a positive set for .

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyfile | A keyfile (or key-file) is a file on a computer which contains encryption or license keys.
A common use is web server software running secure socket layer (SSL) protocols. Server-specific keys issued by trusted authorities are merged into the keyfile along with the trusted root certificates. By this method keys ca... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character%20sum | In mathematics, a character sum is a sum of values of a Dirichlet character χ modulo N, taken over a given range of values of n. Such sums are basic in a number of questions, for example in the distribution of quadratic residues, and in particular in the classical question of finding an upper bound for the least quadr... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred%20Young%20%28mathematician%29 | Alfred Young, FRS (16 April 1873 – 15 December 1940) was a British mathematician.
He was born in Widnes, Lancashire, England, and educated at Monkton Combe School in Somerset and Clare College, Cambridge, graduating BA as 10th Wrangler in 1895. He is known for his work in the area of group theory. Both Young diagrams... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kodaira%20embedding%20theorem | In mathematics, the Kodaira embedding theorem characterises non-singular projective varieties, over the complex numbers, amongst compact Kähler manifolds. In effect it says precisely which complex manifolds are defined by homogeneous polynomials.
Kunihiko Kodaira's result is that for a compact Kähler manifold M, with... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft%20goal | In connection with modeling languages and especially with goal-oriented modeling, a soft goal is an objective without clear-cut criteria. Soft goals can represent:
Non-functional requirements
Relations between non-functional requirements
Non-functional requirements (or quality attributes, qualities, or more colloquia... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schr%C3%B6dinger%27s%20cat%20in%20popular%20culture | Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment, usually described as a paradox, devised by Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger in 1935. It illustrates what he saw as absurdities in the views that other physicists had about quantum mechanics (ideas later labeled the Copenhagen interpretation), by applying them not to micros... |
